[Effect of GMDP encapsulated into liposomes on metastatic spread of Lewis lung carcinoma]. 1988

V Iu Umanskiĭ, and A V Stefanov, and O P Bondar', and S A Braginskiĭ, and K P Balitskiĭ

N-acetylglucosaminyl-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (GMDP), a new liposome-encapsulated muramyl dipeptide analog, was studied for its effect on the Lewis lung carcinoma metastatic spreading as well as on the adenosine deaminase (ADA) and 5'-nucleotidase (5-N) activity in the alveolar and peritoneal mice macrophages. The drug administration was found to cause a sharp dose-dependent decrease in the lung metastases volume and number as compared to those in mice not treated with GMDP. The antimetastatic effect of GMDP is accompanied by an increase in the functional macrophage activity determined by ADA and 5-N level in these cells.

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.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

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
