| Research Abstract |
Liposomes are artificial phospholipid vesicles consisting of lipid bilayers. They can be used as drug-carriers for drug delivery system (DDS), by entrapped antitumor drugs in the vesicles. We conducted experimental studies of 2 types of DDS using adriamycin (ADM) entrapped in liposomes (Lip-ADM).
(1) Lip-ADM conjugated with tumor associated monoclonal antibpdies or their Fab or Fab' fragments showed the selective delivery of ADM and the targeted antitumor effect against sntigen-producing xenograft in vivo. Pepsin digestion of monoclonal antibodies produced Fab fragments from anti-AFP IgG2b antibodies and Fab' fragments from anti-CEA IgGl antibodies. Fab' fragments should be useful for DDS in cancer chemotherapy.
(2) Liposomes have the specific liguid-crystalline phase transition temperature (Tc), at which they release entrapped drugs. The temperature-sensitive liposomes encapsulating ADM (TS-Lip ADM) prepared from dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (Tc:41ﾟC) and cholesterol, showed the temperature-sensitive release of ADM and the enhanced antitumor effects by combination of local hyperthermia of the tumor AH66.
(3) CDDP and it's delivertive NK-121 were tried to be entrapped in liposomes.
