Title Induction of apoptosis of human tumor cells by hybrid liposomes including docosahexaenoic acid.
Journal Bioorg Med Chem Lett
Abstract Inhibitory effects of hybrid liposomes (HL) composed of L-alpha-dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) including polyunsaturated fatty acids on the growth of human tumor cells were examined in vitro. Remarkably high inhibitory effects of HL including docosahexaenoic acid (HL-DHA) on the growth of lung carcinoma (RERF-LC-OK), colon tumor (WiDr), and stomach tumor (MKN45) cells were obtained. The induction of apoptosis by HL-DHA was revealed on the basis of fluorescence microscopic and flow cytometric analyses.
