Background and objective: Aronia melanocarpa, called black chokeberry, is a natural product belonging to the family rosaceae, and is known to contain polyphenolic antioxidants including cyanidin-3-galactoside, cyanidin-3-arabinoside, cyanidin-3-xyloside, and cyanidin-3-glucoside Because of the abundance of anthocyanins, Aronia has been studied to be used in various industries. Methods: Aronia melanocarpa extract was treated 24 hours a day to RAW 264.7 cells with inflammations induced by LPS. After extracting total RNA, the amount of inflammatory cytokine expression was measured using RT-PCR. After processing the Aronia liposome using Aronia extract and the layer-by-layer electrostatic deposition method in keratinocyte cells at the same time, we checked the synthesis of Hyaluronic acid enhanced through the formation of Aronia liposome using ELISA. Results: The treatment of Aronia extract in inflammation-induced RAW 264.7 cells conducted to check the anti-inflammatory efficacy of Aronia extract inhibited inflammatory cytokines including TLR4, TNF-α, IL-1β, COX-2, and iNOS and increased the mRNA expression of HAS2 genes related to moisturizing. Based on the anti-inflammatory and moisturizing effect of Aronia extract, the Aronia liposome technology was introduced to Aronia extract to produce Aronia liposome. Conclusion: The liposome formation of Aronia extract is expected to be used as a functional material in treating various inflammatory skin diseases by controlling the moisture content of the corneocytes by increasing the expression rate of genes associated with the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, while retaining the efficacy of its components.

Liposome as a carrier of topotecan (TPT), a promising anticancer drug, has been reported in attempt to improve the stability and antitumor activity of TPT. However, the biodistr ibution pattern of TPT liposome in vivo and PEG-modified liposome containing TPT have not been studied systemically. In this paper, the in vitro stability and in vivo biodistribution behavior of several liposomes containing TPT with different lipid compositions and PEG-modification were studied. Compared with the 'fluid' liposome (S-Lip) composed of soybean phosphatidylcholine (SPC), the 'solid' liposome (H-Lip) composed of hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine HSPC decreased the leaking efficiency of TPT from liposome and enhanced the stability of liposome in fetal bovine serum (FBS) or human blood plasma (HBP). The results of biodistribution studies in S$_{180}$ tumor-bearing mice showed that liposomal encapsulation increased the concentrations of total TPT and the ratio of lactone form in plasma. Compared with free TPT, S-Lip and H-Lip resulted in 5- and 19- fold increase in the area under the curve (AUC$_{0\rightarrow\propto}$), respectively. PEG- modified H-Lip (H-PEG) showed 3.7-fold increase in AUC$_{0\rightarrow\propto}$ compared with H-Lip, but there was no significant increase in t$_{1/2}$ and AUC$_{0\rightarrow\propto}$ for PEG-modified S-Lip (S-PEG) compared with S-Lip. Moreover, the liposomal encapsulation changed the biodistribution behavior, and H-Lip and H-PEG dramatically increased the accumulation of TPT in tumor, and the relative tumor uptake ratios were 3.4 and 4.3 compared with free drug, respectively. There was also a marked increase in the distribution of TPT in lung when the drug was encapsulated into H-Lip and H-PEG. Moreover, H-PEG decreased the accumulation of TPT in bore marrow compared with unmodified H-Lip. All these results indicated that the membrane fluidity of liposome has an important effect on in vitro stability and in vivo biodistribution pattern of liposomes containing TPT, and PEG-modified 'solid' liposome may be an efficient carrier of TPT.

The immunoassay method is frequently used for the identification and quantitation of ultratrace amount of bioactive substances. Homogeneous liposome immunoassays, which can avoid the use of radioisotopes and separation steps, have recently been reported in many publications. Cytolysin-mediated liposome immunoassay using melittin ever been studied but showed limited applications. Here, we designed a homogeneous liposome immunoassay using Clostridium perfringens phospholipase C (PLC), an enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine in biological membranes, as a cytolysin.

Cationic liposomes complexed with DNA have been extensively utilized for the delivery of reporter or therapeutic genes both in culture and in vivo. We investigated and determined the optimum conditions of a cationic liposome, composed of dimethyldioctadecy-lammonium bromide (DDAB) and dioleoyl phosphati-dylethanolamine UOPE), mediated a reporter plasmid expressing luciferase into insect cell lines (Sf-21 and Bm-N) and silkworm larvae. Together the data demonstrated that Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) genomic DNA (128 kb) was successfully transfected into Bm-5 cells using this liposome. These results suggest that DDAB/DOPE liposome will be useful as delivery agents for gene transfer to insect cells both in vitro and in vivo.

The purpose of the study was to prepare the pegylated liposome carrying plasmid DNA with optimal encapsulation efficiency. Plasmid DNA (pCEP4 clone 790, 10.6 kb) was entrapped in the pegylated liposome composed of neutral lipid, POPC (l-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), cationic lipid, DDAB (dimethyl dioctadecyl ammonium bromide) and anionic lipids, DSPE-PEG 2000 (distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine polyethylene glycol 2000) and DSPE-PEG 2000-maleimide by freezing/thawing method. Free plasmid DNA was separated from the encapsulated one by Sepharose CL-4B column chromatography. The DNA amount encapsulated into the pegylated liposome was increased as cationic lipid concentration, initial amount of plasmid DNA and total lipid amount were increased.

To prolong the biological half-life of streptokinase, a thrombolytic agent, streptokinase-bearing liposome with and distearolyphosphatidyl ethanolamine-N-poly (ethylene glycol) 2000 (DSPEPEG 2000) was prepared and evaluated. Streptokinase-bearing liposomes composed of distearolyphosphatidylcholine (DSPC), cholesterol and cholesterol-3-sulfate with DSPE-PEG 2000 was prepared by the freeze-thawing method and administered via femoral vein to rats (15000 IU/kg). The activity of streptokinase in plasma was determined by the method based on the amidolytic activity of streptokinase-plasminogen complex. Pharmacokinetic parameters of streptokinase incorporated in liposomes were compared with those of streptokinase alone. The $T_{1/2}$ and $AUC_\infty$ streptokinase incorporated in DSPC-PEG liposome increased 16.3- and 6.1-fold, respectively, compared with those of streptokinase alone. Streptokinase-bearing long-circulating liposome could increase the circulation time of streptokinase in blood and expect longer thrombolytic activity compared with streptokinase alone.
