Abstract

Abstract Gelatin, prepared commercially by degradation of animal collagen, was studied to see whether it had an affinity for fibronectin, which has a known affinity for collagen, and whether gelatin-based drugs could be used to target fibronectin-excreting tumours. Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, an attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis, is currently the most effective treatment for superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The living cells of the BCG vaccine associate with the fibronectin-bearing surfaces of the tumour. Using a multi-well culture plate technique, gelatin microparticles were shown to be adsorbed onto murine S180 sarcoma cells and this reaction was substantially inhibited by the addition of human plasma fibronectin. The avidities of various BCG substrains and gelatin microparticles for glass-bound fibronectin were measured and the association constants determined. The gelatin microparticles associated with the fibronectin with equal avidity as the BCG cells. The results suggest that this model system may allow the investigation of gelatin-based drug delivery devices capable of targeting fibronectin-bearing surfaces associated with some tumours.
