Uptake of liposome-entrapped mannitol by diaphragm.
Tissue uptake of liposome-entrapped radioactive mannitol was examined in rats and mice after both intravenous and intraperitoneal injection. In accord with results from other laboratories, liver and spleen effectively accumulated liposomes. Diaphragm also took up significant amounts of label. In nearly all cases the radioactive content of perfused tissues was less than tissues which were not perfused but this was statistically significant in only a few comparisons.
