Transplantation of Xenogeneic Cells Secreting β-Endorphin for Pain Treatment: Analysis of the Ability of Components of Complement to Penetrate through Polymer Capsules

The permeation of components of complement and secreted peptides through polymer capsules (PM30, K6305, and K5708) were examined. To analyze permeability by complement, the degree of hemolysis of sensitized sheep erythrocytes (EA) (1 × 10 9 /ml) enclosed in each type of capsule was examined after 24...
