Liposomes are effectively used in the treatment of microbial infections. Higher cellular uptake has been reported when antibiotics are encapsulated in liposomes. In this study, enrofloxacin (ENF) was encapsulated in large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) and the effects of formulation variables on the liposome characteristics were investigated. Liposomes were prepared using dry lipid film method. A number of variables such as molar ratios of phospholipid (DPPC; DL‐α‐phosphatidylcholine dipalmitoyl), cholesterol, ENF and amount of α‐tocopherol and the volumes of internal (chloroform) and external phases [phosphate buffered saline PBS (pH 7.4)] were studied. In vitro characterization of the liposomes including the encapsulation capacity, size and drug release properties were carried out. Using of this method, spherical LUV liposomes with high drug content could be produced. Particle size of liposomes changed between 3.12 and 4.95 µm. The molar ratios of DPPC, cholesterol and ENF affected the size of the liposome (p < 0.05). The drug encapsulation capacities were high and changed between 37.1% and 79.5%. The highest ENF encapsulation was obtained with the highest cholesterol content. An increase in the drug encapsulation capacity of the liposome was found with increasing molar ratios of DPPC, cholesterol and ENF (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the release of ENF from the liposomes decreased as the molar ratios of DPPC, cholesterol and ENF increased (p < 0.05). In conclusion, a convenient colloidal carrier for the controlled release of ENF can be prepared by changing the formulation parameters of LUVs. 相似文献

The majority of aggressive forms of the childhood tumor neuroblastoma can with current treatment protocols not be cured and
possess a major challenge in pediatric oncology. After initial rounds of chemotherapy, surgery and irradiation, which in most
cases result in tumor regression, these aggressive neuroblastomas relapse and frequently develop drug resistance. As approximately
50% of the children with neuroblastoma have an aggressive form, there is a compelling demand for new treatment strategies.
Arsenic trioxide has the capacity to kill multidrug-resistant neuro-blastoma cells in vitro and in vivo and the drug is currently being evaluated in clinical trials. In this report we discuss the background to the use of arsenic
trioxide in cancer therapy and the currently known mechanisms by which arsenic trioxide kills human neuroblastoma cells. 相似文献

Arsenic trioxide uptake by human and rat aquaglyceroporins 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Liu Z Carbrey JM Agre P Rosen BP 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2004,316(4):1178-1185
Aquaglyceroporins are channels that allow downhill movement of uncharged solutes such as glycerol and urea. Arsenic trioxide has recently been shown to be translocated by mouse mAQP7 and rat rAQP9. In this study we examined the ability of the four known human members of the aquaglyceroporin family, hAQP3, hAQP7, hAQP9, and hAQP10, to facilitate As(OH)(3) movement in Xenopus oocytes. The order of effectiveness as an As(III) transporter was found to be hAQP9 > hAQP7, with little or no transport by hAQP3 or hAQP10. From comparison with the crystal structure of the bacterial homologue GlpF and the bovine erythrocyte water channel bAQP1, AQP9 residues Phe-64 and Arg-219 are predicted to serve as part of the selectivity filter. The requirement for Phe-64 and Arg-219 in arsenic trioxide translocation was examined by site-directed mutagenesis of rAQP9, taking advantage of the fact that rat AQP9 catalyzes (73)As(OH)(3) uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and in oocytes. R219A, R219K, F64A, F64T, and F64W were expressed in both yeast and oocytes, and permeability of arsenic trioxide and glycerol was measured. A lysine but not an alanine residue could substitute for the highly conserved Arg-219, indicating that a positive charge is required at the entry to the channel. In contrast, the phenylalanine residue, which is believed to position substrates near the conserved arginine, was not required for either arsenic trioxide or glycerol uptake. The results support the hypothesis that arsenic trioxide and glycerol use the same translocation pathway in AQP9. 相似文献

Liposomes loaded with ketorolac tromethamine salt were prepared by using a thin layer evaporation method. The physical properties of liposomes were studied by using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The relationship between lipid composition, encapsulation efficiency, vesicle size, and the release of ketorolac tromethamine-loaded liposomes was studied. The drug content was found to be dependent on the lipidic composition used in the preparations and, in particular, vesicles containing both cationic lipids (dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide and N-[1-(2,3-dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride), and phosphatidylcholine had a higher entrapped efficiency than liposomes with phosphatidylcholine alone or in the presence of cholesterol. Finally, the cationic liposomes appear to be useful as carriers for ketorolac tromethamine to control its in vitro release. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of pegylation on the physical stability, morphology and membrane integrity of arsonoliposomes. Arsonoliposomes composed of distearoylglycerophosphocholine (DSPC), cholesterol (Chol) and the palmitoyl side chain arsonolipid (with concentrations ranging from 0 mol% [DSPC/Chol vesicles] to 53 mol% of total lipid) containing either 4 or 8 mol% DPPE-PEG2000 or DSPE-PEG2000, were prepared by sonication. Arsonoliposome membrane integrity was evaluated by measuring the retention of encapsulated calcein in vesicles (during incubation in buffer or fetal calf serum [FCS]) while physical stability was evaluated by measuring vesicle dispersion turbidity (during incubation in water or CaCl(2)). Vesicle morphology was studied by cryo-electron microscopy. Experimental results show that: (i) PEG-lipids are incorporated in arsonoliposomes (as confirmed by the vesicle zeta potential modulation), (ii) pegylation of arsonoliposomes prevents their aggregation and fusion in the presence of calcium ions and (iii) when 8 mol% of PEG-DSPE is incorporated in arsonoliposomes based on their arsonolipid content, two groups of pegylated vesicles are formed: low content arsonoliposomes (<20 mol% arsonolipid) which are highly leaky and high content arsonoliposomes (>27 mol% arsonolipid) which are highly stable (70% calcein retention after 24h incubation in fetal calf serum [FCS]). In addition to high membrane integrity, the high content pegylated arsonoliposomes are morphologically perfect round-shaped vesicles without the sharp edges typically observed with non-pegylated DSPC-containing arsonoliposomes. 相似文献

AbstractThe encapsulation of different immunomodulating peptides, the peptidoglycan monomer, its semisynthetic derivatives (Adamant-1-yl)-acetyl-peptidoglycan monomer and Boc-Tyr-peptidoglycan monomer, respectively, and of two diastereoisomers of adamantyltripeptides into the large negatively charged multilamellar liposomes was investigated. The reproducible quantitative method using HPLC was established for the determination of the entrapped compounds. It was shown that the tested compounds could be efficiently incorporated into liposomes using either the film or modified film method. The results confirmed that the peptidoglycans with lipophilic substituents and particularly the adamantyltripeptides were incorporated into liposomes with higher efficiency than the peptidoglycan monomer using either of the described methods. Liposome preparations were stable at 4°C up to seven days as shown by minimal leaking of the entrapped material. 相似文献

Advances in cancer therapy have increased the rate of survival of young cancer patients; however, female lymphoma patients frequently face a temporary or permanent loss of fertility when treated with traditional cytotoxic agents. The potential loss of fertility is an important concern that can influence treatment decisions for many premenopausal cancer patients. The negative effect of chemotherapeutic agents and treatment protocols to patients’ fertility–referred to as fertotoxicity–are thus an increasingly important cancer survivorship issue. We have developed a novel nanoscale formulation of arsenic trioxide, a potent drug for treatment of hematological malignancies, and demonstrate that it has significantly better activity in a murine lymphoma model than the free drug. In parallel, we have developed a novel in vitro assay of ovarian follicle function that predicts in vivo ovarian toxicity of therapeutic agents. Our results reveal that the nanotherapeutic agent is not only more active against lymphoma, but is fertoprotective, i.e., it is much less deleterious to ovarian function than the parent drug. Thus, our in vitro assay allows rapid evaluation of both established and experimental anticancer drugs on ovarian reserve and can inform the selection of efficacious and fertility-sparing treatment regimens for reproductive-age women diagnosed with cancer. 相似文献

Detoxification enzyme heme oxygenase 1 (HO‐1) and proinflammation enzyme cyclooxygenase 2 (Cox‐2) are key response proteins that function to promote the survival of cells exposed to arsenic trioxide (ATO). However, whether there is a cross‐regulation between them in ATO‐treated cells remains poorly investigated. In this study, concomitant upregulation of Cox‐2 and HO‐1 induced by ATO was observed in normal human lung fibroblasts. Cox‐2 inhibitor NS398 suppressed the upregulation of HO‐1, whereas HO‐1 inhibitor protoporphyrin IX zinc (II) stimulated the expression of Cox‐2. Both proteins were regulated by p38, and the feedback regulation of HO‐1 on Cox‐2 was mediated through p38. Our results confirmed the reciprocal regulations between Cox‐2 and HO‐1 in ATO‐treated normal cells and shed light on the understanding of protecting cells from injury caused by ATO while simultaneously decreasing the inflammation responses, which may be related to the carcinogenicity of ATO. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
