Phototoxic liposomes coupled to an antibody that alone cannot modulate its cell-surface antigen kill selected target cells.
Molecules such as antibodies that bind to cell surfaces can be used to deliver cytotoxic drugs to selected cells. To be effective the drug must usually be taken into the cells by endocytosis. In this study a T-cell line (CCRF-CEM) was effectively killed by liposomes carrying a photosensitizer and be...
