  • Abstract
    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with contrast agents is believed to be useful for stem cell tracking in vivo, and the aim of this research was to investigate the biosafety and neural induction of SD rat-originated adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) using cationic superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticle which was synthesized by the improved polyol method, in order to allow visualization using in vitro MRI. The scan protocols were performed with T2-mapping sequence; meanwhile, the ultrastructure of labeled cells was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) while the iron content was measured by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). After neural induction, nestin and NSE (neural markers) were obviously expressed. In vitro MRI showed that the cationic PEG/PEI-modifed SPIO nanoparticles could achieve great relaxation performance and favourable longevity. an‎d the ICP-AES quantifed the lowest iron content that could be detected by MRI as 1.56∼1.8 pg/cell. Tis study showed that the cationic SPIO could be directly used to label ADSCs, which could then inductively diferentiate into nerve and be imaged by in vitro MRI, which would exhibit important guiding signifcance for the further in vivo MRI towards animal models with neurodegenerative disorders.
