Abstract

ITO, M., ISHIDA, E., TANABE, F., MORI, N. and SHIGETA, S. Inhibitory Effect of Liposome-Encapsulated Penicillin G on Growth of Listeria monocytogenes in Mouse Macrophages. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1986, 150 (3), 281-286-Administration of penicillin G encapsulated in liposomes inhibited the proliferation of Listeria which infected mouse intraperitoneal resident macrophages whereas free penicillin G and/or liposomes did not. This result suggests that administration of antibiotics encapsulated in liposomes is an effective treatment for the intracellular infection.
