Abstract
Effects on cultured human colon cancer cells of combination of transfe ction with cationic multilamellar liposome-entrapped plasmids containi ng cDNA of human interferon-beta (hIFN-beta) or interferon-gamma (hIFN -gamma) (RN-hIFN-beta or RN-hIFN-gamma) and an anti-cancer drug (5-flu orouracil or cisplatin) were examined. At 16 h after the addition of l iposome-entrapped RN-hIFN-beta or RN-hIFN-gamma, the medium was exchan ged for the fresh medium containing anti-cancer drug, of which effect of growth inhibition was strengthened synergistically, and the efficac y increased corresponding to the dose of the drug.
