ABSTRACT:
Methods and pharmaceutical compositions for delivering a clinically relevant agent to a mammalian recipient in vivo are provided. The methods involve forming a foam cell from an isolated foam cell precursor in vitro, incorporating an agent into the foam cell, and administering the foam cell containing the agent to the mammalian recipient. In a preferred embodiment, the foam cell precursors are isolated from a human recipient, treated, and returned to the patient in the form of a foam cell containing a therapeutically effective amount of the agent.
