Endocytosis of liposomes and intracellular fate of encapsulated molecules: encounter with a low pH compartment after internalization in coated vesicles

Abstract

We have compared the intracellular fate of several fluorescent probes and colloidal gold entrapped in negatively charged liposomes. Weakly acidic molecules (carboxyfluorescein) appear in the cytoplasm of CV-1 cells in 30 min; agents that raise lysosomal pH block this process. Highly charged molecules (calcein) and large molecules (FITC-dextran: 18 kd) remain confined to extra-or intracellular vesicles. Thin section electron micrographs show gold-containing liposomes bound to coated pits, in intracellular coated and uncoated vesicles, and in secondary lysosomes, including dense bodies. Free gold was not observed in the cytoplasm. We conclude that negatively charged liposomes are endocytosed and processed intracellularly by the coated vesicle pathway, and acidification of the endocytic vesicle, rather than liposome fusion, permits escape of certain molecules to the cytoplasm.
