Polyethylene-glycol-mediated delivery of liposome-entrapped pigments into fibroblasts: experimental pigment cells as models for mutator phenotypes.

Cancer research - 1 Dec 1992

Schmitz S, Allen T M, Jimbow K

Abstract excerpt

The role of epidermal melanin pigments in the development of skin cancer remains unclear. A new technique for the specific introduction of compartmentalized melanin into nonpigmented human fibroblasts through the use of liposomes and polyethylene glycol (PEG) is presented. The delivery of liposome-encapsulated material to cells was characterized by: (a) high efficiency of delivery through PEG-mediated endocytosis...
