We had prepared MLV liposome with Hibiscus Esculentus Ext.(HEE) which have fluorescent light in order to evaluate its percutaneous absorption about hairless rat skin. Then we investigated particle size of MLV using confocal laser scanning microscope(CLSM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM), respectively. Stability of MLV liposome and penetration of MLV liposome to hairless rat skin was measured by CLSM. As a result of experiments, MLV was globular shape and the rage of particle size was 0.3-0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ mostly. Cream-type MLV had high stability comparatively. When we treated with MLV to rat skin, skin penetration was enhanced, especially, the optimum concentration of MLV on penetration to rat skin was 10%. Optimum penetration time was 6hr-12hr. And MLV-type HEE was more effective on percutaneous absorption than HEE-cream or liposome-type HEE.

Anionic small molecules are hard to penetrate the cell membranes because of their negative charges. Encapsulation of small molecules into liposome particles can provide target specific delivery of them. In our previous study, siRNA could be efficiently encapsulated into liposome particles using an asymmetric preparation method of liposomes. In this study, the same method was applied for encapsulation of small anionic fluorescent chemicals such as calcein and indocyanine green (ICG). More than 90% fluorescent chemicals were encapsulated in the asymmetric liposome particles (ALPs). No intracellular fluorescent signal was observed in the tumor cells treated with the unmodified calcein/ALPs and ICG/ALPs, whereas the surface modification with a cell-penetrating polyarginine peptide (R8 or R12) allows cellular uptake of the ALPs. The results demonstrate that the ALPs encapsulating small anionic drugs will be useful for target-specific delivery after modification of target-specific ligands.

Bromelain has been used as a meat-tenderizing agent in food processing. To increase the availability of bromelain, microencapsulation into liposome was carried out by the dehydration and rehydration method. Small unilamellar vesicles prepared by sonication treatment showed higher encapsulation efficiency (EE) than by the French press method. In the preparation of liposome, the effect of pH and centrifugal force on EE was also investigated and it showed a higher EE at acidic pH than at alkaline pH with centrifugation at 80, 000$\times$g. The actual EEs except unencapsulated bromelain which bound on the outside surface of liposome by electrostatic interaction also were investigated, and the optimal EE was at pH 4.6, at 0.6 of a ratio of bromelain to phosholipid(18.2%, w/w). Release of bromelain from liposomes was stimulated as the temperature increased at neutral pH.

본 연구에서는 낙타유를 유효성분으로 하여 리포좀을 제조하였고, 이를 이용하여 항노화 효능을 갖는 화장품 원료를 개발하고자 다양한 실험을 실시하였다. 제조된 낙타유 리포좀은 피부 섬유아세포에서 collagen과 hyaluronan synthase-3 (HAS-3)의 발현을 증가시키고 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1의 발현을 감소시킬 뿐 아니라 elastase의 활성을 억제하여 주름 개선 기능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 자외선으로부터 손상된 세포를 재생시키는 효과를 확인하였다. 이에 따라 낙타유를 함유한 리포좀은 항노화 소재로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The polydiacethylene (PDA) is known to change its color by mechanical shear. The shear-induced color transition has been reported with elastomer or film type of PDA. In this paper, we newly investigated the transition with liposome type of PDAs in polymeric solutions. The liposomes were dispersed in Poly(vinyl alcohol) 2% + Sodium borate 1%, Poly(vinyl alcohol) 15% and Hyaluronic acid 1% (PVA/B, PVA, HA). The shear stress was continuously imposed to each solution by stress control type rheometer with coni-cylinder fixture. The degree of color transition was quantified with the characteristic absorbance peak at 540 nm (blue) and 640 nm (red). As a result, PDA liposome in PVA/B solution changed the color from blue to red upon increasing the magnitude of shear (from 0 to 100 Pa) and the duration of shear-imposed time (from 0 to 5400 sec). Meanwhile, PDA liposome in HA or PVA solution did not noticeably change the color, even though the low shear viscosities of the solutions were kept almost constant. This color transition of PDA liposome is expected to measure the magnitude of shear, and to distinguish different responses of polymeric solutions to the applied shear.

We have investigated the in vitro cytotoxic effect of liposome-encapsulated N-(phospho-nacetyl)-L-aspartic acid (PALA) against C-26 murine colon cancer cells, and have compared it in this regard to free PALA. Three different PALA-containing liposomal formulations using distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC), distearoylphosphatidylglycerol (DSPG), and polyethyle-neglycol-derivatized distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-DSPE) were made and their cytotoxicity was measured. In 72 hr continuous exposure experiment with C-26 cells, the 50% growth inhibitory concentration ($IC_50$) of DSPG-PALA liposome formulation was $0.09\mu\$, which showed about 65-fold more potent than unencapsulated free PALA ($5.1\mu\$). Similar degree of increase in cytotoxicity was also observed in 1 hr exposure experiment. However the $IC_50$ of PEG-DSPE-PALA liposome and DSPC-PALA liposome were $10.7\mu\$and $11.8\mu\$respectively, which showed slightly less potent than unencapsulated free PALA. Physical characteristics of PALA-liposomes, such as the size and drug:lipid ratio were also determined. In conclusion, negatively-charged DSPG-PALA liposome showed the highest cytotoxic effect among tested on the C-26 cells in vitro.

A novel cholesterol-based cationic lipid containing a tri-2-hydroxyethylamine head group and ether linker (Chol-THEA) was synthesized and examined as a potent gene delivery vehicle. In the preparation of cationic liposome, the addition of DOPE as helper lipid significantly increased the transfection efficiency. To find the optimum transfection efficiency, we screened various weight ratios of DOPE and liposome/DNA (N/P). The best transfection efficiency was found at the Chol-THEA:DOPE weight ratio of 1:1 and N/P weight ratio of 10~15. Most of the plasmid DNA was retarded by this liposome at the optimum N/P weight ratio of 10. The transfection efficiency of Chol-THEA liposome was compared with DOTAP, Lipofectamine, and DMRIE-C using the luciferase assay and GFP expression. Chol-THEA liposome with low toxicity had better or similar potency of gene delivery compared with commercial liposomes in COS-7, Huh-7, and MCF-7 cells. Therefore, Chol-THEA could be a useful non-viral vector for gene delivery.

Egg 인지질 liposome에 미치는 대두 saponin의 항산화 작용에 대한 영향을 흡광분석법으로 검토하였다. ${\alpha}-tocopherol$이 함유된 egg 인지질 liposomed의 산화지수와 산화속도가 순수 eff 인지질 liposome의 산화지수와 산화속도에 비하여 현저하게 감소되었다. Liposome내 함유된 ${\alpha}-tocopherol$은 순수 egg 인지질 liposome의 산화를 지연시켰다. 특히 대두 saponine은 egg 인지질 liposome에 대한 ${\alpha}-tocopherol$의 항산화 효과를 촉진시켰다. 이러한 결과로 보아 대두 saponine이 egg 인지질 liposome에 대한 ${\alpha}-tocopherol$의 항산화 작용에 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.

Micelle, liposome and polyethylene glycol(PEG) were employed to reduce the cell mem- brane toxicity of Amphotericin B(Amp. B). Cholesterol-sulfate which can form a mixed micelle with Amp. B molecules was found very effective for the reduction of Amp. B toxicity. 0.01% of cholesterol-sulfate could reduce the toxicity of 5X 10$^{-6}$ M Amp. B by 90%. The required concent- ration of cholesterol-sulfate for the toxicity reduction was proportionally increased with increasing Amp. B concentration. PEG was also effective on the reduction of Amp. B toxicity. 2% PEG was required for the reduction of toxicity by 50%, regardless of Amp. B concentration. The liposome system showed an effective reduction of Amp. B toxicity on RBC, maintaining the antibiotic effect on Candida albicans as free drugs. This seems to be due to the fact that liposome bilayer plays a role of buffer system between ergosterol of fungi cell membrane and cholesterol of red blood cell membrane, which leads the redistribution of Amp. B between them, as the result, the reduction of drug toxicity on cell membrane.

본 연구에서는 일반 리포좀의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 인지질(PC)과 계면활성제($Tego^{(R)}$ care 450)로 구성된 탄성 리포좀을 제조하였다. 탄성 리포좀의 유효성분으로 천연 항산화제로 알려진 쿼세틴을 담지하였고, 탄성 리포좀의 입자크기 및 가변형성과 쿼세틴의 포집 효율, 안정성, in vitro 피부투과를 평가하였다. 쿼세틴을 담지한 탄성 리포좀의 평균 입자크기는 208.2~303.4 nm이였고, 포집효율은 64.1~87.5%로 측정되었다. 0.1% 쿼세틴을 담지한 탄성리포좀 중에서 인지질과 계면활성제 비율이 90 : 10인 경우가 가장 높은 포집효율(87.5%)과 가변형성 지수(28.3)를 나타내었다. 이 제형을 대상으로 피부 투과 실험을 진행하였다. 그 결과 대조군으로 사용된 일반 리포좀($114.8{\mu}g/cm^2$)과 1,3-butylene glycol($75.1{\mu}g/cm^2$) 용액보다 탄성 리포좀의 피부 투과능($164.6{\mu}g/cm^2$)이 훨씬 더 크게 나타났다. 이러한 결과들로 미루어 보아 $Tego^{(R)}$ care 450을 이용한 탄성 리포좀이 피부를 통한 유효성분 전달에 유용하게 이용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
