In order to study how dynamic changes of α5β1 integrin engagement affect cellular behaviour, photoactivatable derivatives of α5β1 specific ligands are presented in this article. The presence of the photoremovable protecting group (PRPG) introduced at a relevant position for integrin recognition, temporally inhibits ligand bioactivity. Light exposure at cell-compatible dose efficiently cleaves the PRPG and restores functionality. Selective cell response (attachment, spreading, migration) to the activated ligand on the surface is achieved upon controlled exposure. Spatial and temporal control of the cellular response is demonstrated, including the possibility to in situ activation. Photoactivatable integrin-selective ligands in model microenvironments will allow the study of cellular behavior in response to changes in the activation of individual integrins as consequence of dynamic variations of matrix composition.

Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) was entrapped with an efficiency of 30-40% in muramyl tripeptide-containing liposomes by a freeze-thawing procedure. A microcytotoxicity assay was developed to measure the tumoricidal activity of mouse alveolar macrophages (AM) against tumoral target cells with a colorimetric viability test. Free IFN-gamma and liposomal muramyl tripeptide phosphatidylethanolamine (MTP-PE) were found to be only slightly effective to activate in vitro AM, whereas encapsulation of both INF-gamma and MTP-PE within the same liposomes produced higher activation of AM. Aerosolized IFN-gamma and liposomal immunomodulators enhanced antitumor properties of AM recovered in mice 24 h postinhalation. Whereas free IFN-gamma also induced a substantial activation of peritoneal macrophages, liposomal encapsulation significantly reduced the systemic activity of inhaled immunomodulators. This approach provides a useful model for the compartmentalized organ-specific activation of AM in mice.
