title: [Preparation of liposomes possessing immunologic specificity].
abstract: The authors obtained artificial lipid vesicles--liposomes containing immunoglobulins. IgG in the complexes with liposomes proved to retain their immunological activity: the liposomes containing rabbit anti-mouse IgG agglutinated in the presence of donkey anti-rabbit IgG or mouse serum. As shown by the use of liposomes containing H3-inulin and immunoglobulins against the cell surface determinants, these immuno-liposomes selectively bound the target, but not the control cells. Specific binding with the antigenic cell surface determinants was also demonstrated in the case of liposomes bearing the nonimmune globulins besides the immunoglobulins. By the indirect immunofluorescence method it was shown that the nonimmune globulins in complex with the immune liposomes were selectively bound by target cells. A possible use of the immuno-liposomes to deliver various substances selectively to the cells of particular types, and to incorporate new antigens into the cell membrane is discussed.
