The intravascular distribution of 0.2 mu lipid microspheres (LM) containing prostaglandin E1 (lipo-PGE1) injected intravenously in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and arteriosclerotic rabbits was investigated by electron microscopic observation and quantification of radiolabelled compounds. LM were observed under an electron microscope to concentrate in subendothelial space of vascular walls, particularly in vascular lesions associated with hypertension or arteriosclerosis. Radiolabelled lipo-PGE1 accumulated more densely in the vascular walls than did free PGE1, and the difference was more conspicuous in vascular lesions. This indicates that lipo-PGE1 penetrates vascular endothelium and then accumulates in blood vessels to result in augmentation of the pharmacological action of prostaglandin. These findings suggest the usefulness of LM as a carrier of prostaglandin to vascular lesions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more.

D008055 Lipids A generic term for fats and lipoids, the alcohol-ether-soluble constituents of protoplasm, which are insoluble in water. They comprise the fats, fatty oils, essential oils, waxes, phospholipids, glycolipids, sulfolipids, aminolipids, chromolipids (lipochromes), and fatty acids.

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.
