Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to liposomal compositions having a concentration gradient which load amino acids and peptides exhibiting weak acid or base characteristics into liposomes. Specifically loaded into liposomes by the methods of the present invention are C-terminal substituted amino acids or peptides. The liposomes are preferably large unilamellar vesicles. The concentration gradient is formed by encapsulating a first medium in the liposomes, said medium having a first concentration of the one or more charged species, and suspending the liposomes in a second medium having a second concentration of the one or more charged species, such as for example a pH gradient. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical preparations comprising such C-terminal substituted amino acids or peptides which have been loaded into the liposomes by the method of the invention.
