Encapsulation of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in liposomes prepared by thin film hydration and their transfer to mesenchymal stem cells and cord blood hematopoietic stem cells
Abstract:IntroductionCytokines are important immune modulator factors controlling homeostasis of the body and are involved in tissue regeneration after wound healing. The encapsulation of cytokines in liposomes has many advantages potentially useful for their transfer to the cells. Liposomes protect cytokines from neutralization, improving their pharmacokinetics or biologic activity in vivo. They are targeted to specific cell types and may delay the release of cytokines, allowing their sustained paracrine delivery. The… Show more
