Suppression of Liver Uptake Liposomes by Injection (I.P.) Sulfate 500 of Orally Fed of Dextran
نویسندگان
چکیده
125Iodine labelled human immunoglobulin-G encapsulated liposomes were administered orally to rats. Distribution of radioactivity was checked in various tissues and in portal blood. The effect of dextran sulfate (DS 500,000 m. wt., liver blockade agent) injection (i.p.) on the liver uptake of liposomes and on the amount of liposomes appearing in the portal blood from the gastrointestinal tract have been studied. An increased amount of radioactivity was observed in the portal blood and the amount of radioactivity in the liver decreased appreciably after injection of dextran sulfate. In both the cases the action of dextran sulfate started 2 hours after injection and reached maximum at 12 hour, falling slightly at 24 hour.

Suppression of liver uptake of liposomes by dextran sulfate 500.
The effect of dextran sulfate (DS, 500,000 Mr) and multilamellar vesicles (MLV) as liver blockade agents has been investigated in mice. Intravenous injection of unlabeled MLV prior to radioactive MLV caused moderate reduction in the liver uptake and increased tibia, lung, and spleen uptake. More drastic differences were observed with intraperitoneal injection of DS. When tested in the range of ...
متن کاملPossible Involvement of Liver Resident Macrophages (Kupffer Cells) in the Pathogenesis of Both Intrahepatic and Extrahepatic Inflammation
Liver resident macrophages designated Kupffer cells (KCs) form the largest subpopulation of tissue macrophages. KCs are involved in the pathogenesis of liver inflammation. However, the role of KCs in the systemic inflammation is still elusive. In this study, we examined whether KCs are involved in not only intrahepatic inflammation but also extrahepatic systemic inflammation. Administration of ...

Intranasal vaccination is particularly a striking route for mucosal immunization, due to the ease of administration and the induction of both mucosal and humoral immunity. However, soluble antigens (Ag) are not sufficiently taken up after the nasal administration and need to be co-administered with adjuvants, penetration enhancers or encapsulated in particles. So, in this study, tetanus toxoid ...
متن کاملHepatic uptake and gene expression mechanisms following intravenous administration of plasmid DNA by conventional and hydrodynamics-based procedures.
Hepatic uptake and gene expression mechanisms following intravenous administration of naked plasmid DNA (pDNA) by conventional and hydrodynamics-based procedures were studied in mice. After conventional (normal) intravenous injection, (32)P-labeled pDNA was rapidly eliminated from the circulation and predominantly taken up by the liver nonparenchymal cells while no significant gene expression w...
