Human recombinant superoxide dismutase (SOD) was modified into a mannosylated form (Man-SOD), and its cellular uptake and inhibitory effect on superoxide anion release were studied in vitro, using cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages. [111In]Man-SOD was taken up by the macrophages to a great extent, whereas no significant uptake was observed for native and galactosylated SOD. The uptake of Man-SOD was inhibited significantly at a low temperature and by the presence of mannan, mannose and colchicine, demonstrating the targeted delivery of Man-SOD via mannose receptor-mediated endocytosis. Man-SOD exhibited a superior inhibitory effect on superoxide anion release from inflammatory macrophages stimulated by phorbol-myristate acetate. The present study suggested the potential of Man-SOD as a therapeutic agent for the inflammatory disease mediated by superoxide anions generated by macrophages.
