Development of magnetic anionic liposome/atelocollagen complexes for efficient magnetic drug targeting.

ABSTRACT: Magnetic nanoparticle-incorporated liposomes (magnetic liposomes) are considered a promising site-specific drug delivery carrier vehicle. With regard to their surface charge, magnetic anionic liposomes (Mag-AL) demonstrate little toxicity in comparison with magnetic cationic liposomes (Mag-CL), whereas their cellular association and uptake efficiency are low. In the current study, we constructed complexes of Mag-AL and atelocollagen (ATCOL), which is a biocompatible and minimally immunogenic biomaterial, to improve the cellular uptake properties of Mag-AL in vitro and in vivo. The cellular association and/or uptake of Mag-AL in RAW264 cells, a murine macrophage-like cell line, under a magnetic field was significantly increased when Mag-AL was complexed with ATCOL, and the highest cellular
