[Metabolism of vitamin D3 administered in liposomes in rat liver]. 1991

L I Apukhovskaia, and N L Khrestovaia, and L V Antonenko

Incorporation of [3H]-cholecalciferol into the liver and the rate of its conversion into 25-OH-D are significantly larger after intravenous administration of this vitamin into liposomes than its dissolution in ethanol. The latter may be due to a different distribution of vitamin D3 in the cells of the liver. Incorporation of [3H]-vitamin D3 in reticulocytes suggests that its cells are a locus for storage of vitamin D, from which the latter is transported into hepatocytes where its 25-hydroxylation proceeds.

D008081 Liposomes Artificial, single or multilaminar vesicles (made from lecithins or other lipids) that are used for the delivery of a variety of biological molecules or molecular complexes to cells, for example, drug delivery and gene transfer. They are also used to study membranes and membrane proteins.

D002762 Cholecalciferol Derivative of 7-dehydroxycholesterol formed by ULTRAVIOLET RAYS breaking of the C9-C10 bond. It differs from ERGOCALCIFEROL in having a single bond between C22 and C23 and lacking a methyl group at C24. Vitamin D 3,(3 beta,5Z,7E)-9,10-Secocholesta-5,7,10(19)-trien-3-ol,Calciol,Cholecalciferols,Vitamin D3
D004337 Drug Carriers Forms to which substances are incorporated to improve the delivery and the effectiveness of drugs. Drug carriers are used in drug-delivery systems such as the controlled-release technology to prolong in vivo drug actions, decrease drug metabolism, and reduce drug toxicity. Carriers are also used in designs to increase the effectiveness of drug delivery to the target sites of pharmacological actions. Liposomes, albumin microspheres, soluble synthetic polymers, DNA complexes, protein-drug conjugates, and carrier erythrocytes among others have been employed as biodegradable drug carriers. Drug Carrier
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
