p H-Sensitive Liposomes: Possible Clinical Implications

Yatvin, M. B., Kreutz, W., Horwitz, B. A., Shinitzky, M.·1980·Science

Abstract

When p H-sensitive molecules are incorporated into liposomes, drugs can be specifically released from these vesicles by a change of p H in the ambient serum. Liposomes containing the p H-sensitive lipid palmitoyl homocysteine (PHC) were constructed so that the greatest p H differential (6.0 to 7.4) of drug release was obtained near physiological temperature. Such liposomes could be useful clinically if they enable drugs to be targeted to areas of the body in which p H is less than physiological, such as primary tumors and metastases or sites of inflammation and infection.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
