clopidogrel and non elective surgery restricted to embryonic cardiocytes in cultures adult hearts are also amenable to structural and functional preservation, following cell membrane lesion sealing in a timedependent manner during ischemia this method of cell membrane lesion sealing has also been reported to preserve the integrity of vascular endothelium with antiactinimmunoliposomes a question that remains clopidogrel and non elective surgery concerning the utility of csil is whether immunoliposomes can retain the protective functions clopidogrel and non elective surgery in the presence of plasma proteins in vivo, since experiments have demonstrated that cells in culture and adult hearts perfused with nonprotein oxygenated buffer were clopidogrel and non elective surgery prevented from undergoing myocardial necrosis, following cell membrane lesion sealing intervention with cytoskeletal antigen specific immunoliposomes to demonstrate that cell membrane lesion sealing also occur in clopidogrel and non elective surgery vivo, rabbits with experimental myocardial infarction were used in this study, rabbits were injected with antimyosin csil, plain liposomes or saline at the time of left circumflex coronary artery occlusion by intracoronary infusion the occlusion was kept for min followed by hrs of reperfusion the hearts were excised, sliced into � slices parallel to the short axis and stained with nitroblue tetrazolium chloride clopidogrel and non elective surgery the infarct was approximately to of the infarcts of the control plain liposome or saline treated rabbit hearts subsequently, comparison to iggliposome treated hearts with acute clopidogrel and non elective surgery myocardial infarction demonstrated that the csil treatment resulted in significantly smaller infarct size, as was observed in comparison to plain liposome or saline treated hearts clopidogrel and non elective surgery thus, cytoskeletalantigen specific immunoliposomes, consisting of antimyosin or antiactinimmunoliposomes, were demonstrated to be clopidogrel and non elective surgery able to preserve cell viability and integrity its potential utility in the cardiovascular clopidogrel and non elective surgery system would be enhanced once its efficacy following intravenous delivery has been demonstrated however, the study of asahi et al showed that intravenous delivery of the antiactin immunoliposomes enabled preservation of the integrity of the endothelial cells of the cerebral vessels csil as targeted gene or drug delivery due to the proposed mechanism of cell membrane lesion sealing, we also proposed that if clopidogrel and non elective surgery drugs or gene constructs were to be included in the immunoliposomes such as clopidogrel and non elective surgery csils, then these drugs or gene constructs should be delivered directly into the cytoplasm fig this route should bypass the endocytic route of drugs or clopidogrel and non elective surgery gene construct delivery, thereby reducing destruction of the delivered cargo by the lysosomal enzymes, after formation of endolysosomes using silver grains as model fig transmission electron micrographs of embryonic

cytoplasm of hypoxic cardiocytes treated with silver grains loaded csils figure left shows a transmission electron micrograph of a cardiocyte treated with silver grains impregnated csils silver grains in groups of concentration at about nm were observed however, in cells treated with silver grains impregnated plain liposomes, very few cells were viable of one such cell detected by transmission

relative light units of luciferase activity of cardiocytes treated with various preparations and controls in csils is shown in fig as relative light units rlus rlus were determined by the use of a luminometer as can be seen, clopidogrel and non elective surgery only hypoxic cardiocytes treated with pglcsils showed increased rlus significantly above normal cells clopidogrel and non elective surgery with treatment with no vectors similarly, normoxic cardiocytes treated with pglcsil, hypoxic cardiocytes and normoxic cardiocytes treated with plain liposomes, or with only vectors, showed clopidogrel and non elective surgery no significant gene transcription and expression when hypoxic cardiocytes were treated with csil clopidogrel and non elective surgery with entrapped psvgal
