OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of liposome formulation in promoting hepatocytes' uptake of tenofovir and cytotoxic effect. METHODS: The tenofovir cationic liposomes were prepared by tert-butyl lyophilization, and its encapsulation efficiency and physico-chemical property were determined. Using human hepatic carcinoma cells SMMC-7721 as a model to investigate the effect of liposome formulation in promoting hepatocytes' uptake of tenofovir. MTT assays were used to examine the toxicity of tenofovir cationic liposomes in different conditions. RESULTS: The prepared tenofovir cationic liposomes had an encapsulation efficiency of (88.3?1.6)%, a size distribution of (278.4?67.6)nm and a Zeta potential of (31?5)mV. The results showed that the liposome formulations containing galactose and PEG modifying lipids resulted in significantly higher and prolonged drug accumulation inside cells as compared with free drugs. The cell survival rates were above 80% when the tenofovir liposome was at a concentration of 7.5?g?mL-1 and lipids at a concentration of 30?g?mL-1, and little toxicity was noted. CONCLUSION: The prepared cationic liposome can greatly enhance hepatocytes' uptake and protection of tenofovir, which is expected to become a highly effective drug delivery system of antiviral drugs such as tenofovir etc.

BACKGROUND:Until now, there is yet no complete recovery from spinal cord injury in terms of structure and functional recoveries. Neurotrophic factors have limited effects on nerve regeneration. Currently, stem cel transplantation may be an effective way to repair spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE:To separate, cultivate and purify mouse spinal cord-derived neural stem cels using serum-free suspension method folowed by morphological observation, immunofluorescence technology and multi-lineage differentiation experiments.
METHODS:By using the suspension culture method, mouse spinal cord-derived neural stem cels at embryonic day 13.5 were cultured and purified. Cel morphology changes were observed under inverted microscope. Cel proliferation ability was detected using cel counting kit-8. Nestin and Sox2 expression was detected by immunofluorescence technology. Multilineage differentiation of spinal cord-derived neural stem cels at passage 4 was detected by natural differentiation method in order to prove the differentiation ability.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Serum-free medium suspension culture method was successfuly applied to separate spinal cord-derived neural stem cels. Cultured cels had good proliferative ability and highly expressed Nestin and Sox2 that was in accordance with the results of DAPI nucleus staining, suggesting the high purity of cels. After induction, the cels could express both Tuj1 and GFAP, indicating the cels had good differentiation potential. This experiment has successfuly established the isolation, culture, identification system of spinal cord-derived neural stem cels, providing experimental basis for subsequent studies of neural stem cels.
