Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) show enormous potential in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. However, current use of hMSCs in clinics is still limited because there is no appropriate way to control their behavior in vivo, such as differentiation to a desired cell type. Genetic modification may provide an opportunity to control the cells in an active manner. One of the major hurdles for genetic manipulation of hMSCs is the lack of an efficient and safe gene delivery system. Herein, biocompatible calcium phosphate (CaP)-based nanoparticles stabilized with a catechol-derivatized hyaluronic acid (dopa-HA) conjugate were used as a carrier for gene transfection to hMSCs for improved differentiation. Owing to the specific interactions between HA and CD44 of bone marrow-derived hMSCs, dopa-HA/CaP showed significantly higher transfection in hMSCs than branched polyethylenimine (bPEI, MW 25 kDa) with no cytotoxicity. The co-delivery of a plasmid DNA encoding bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2 pDNA) and micro RNA 148b (miRNA-148b) by dopa-HA/CaP achieved significantly improved osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs.

Dexamethasone (DEX)-loaded biphasic calcium phosphate nanoparticles (BCP-NPs) are prepared by incorporation of DEX during or after the formation of BCP-NPs. The DEX-loaded BCP-NPs release DEX in a sustained manner and enhance the osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs.
