Objective:
In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of miR-335-5p lipidoid nanocomplexes coated on Titanium (Ti) SLActive surface by lyophilization.
Design:
In our model, we coated miR-335-5p/Lipidoid nanoparticles on titanium implant, seeded GFP-labelled mouse bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) onto the functionalized Ti implant surface, and analyzed the transfection efficiency, cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic activity of the bone-implant interface.
Results:
The Ti SLActive surface displayed a suitable hydrophilicity ability and provided a large surface area for miRNA loading, enabling spatial retention of the miRNAs within the nanopores until cellular delivery. We demonstrated a high transfection efficiency of miR-335-5p lipidoid nanoparticles in BMSCs seeded onto the Ti SLActive surface, even after 14 days. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and cell vitality were significantly increased in BMSCs transfected with miR-335-5p at 7 and 14 days as opposed to cells transfected with negative controls. When miR-335-5p transfected BMSCs were induced to undergo osteogenic differentiation, we detected increased mRNA expression of osteogenic markers including Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), collagen I (COL1), osteocalcin (OCN) and bone sialoprotein (BSP) at 7 and 14 days as compared with negative controls.
Conclusion:
MiR-335-5p lipidoid nanoparticles could be used as a new cost-effective methodology to increase the osteogenic capacity of biomedical Ti implants.
