Entry-Prohibited Effect of kHz Pulsed Magnetic Field Upon Interaction Between SPIO Nanoparticles and Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Objective: The interaction between superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the presence of pulsed magnetic field (PMF) has become an important area of research in recent years. Methods: A parameter-adjustable pulsed magnetic field was developed based on the principle of insulated gate bipolar translator transistor-controlled discharge of large capacitances. The internalizations of SPIO nanoparticles by MSCs were investigated under the treatment of PMF in both intermittent stimulation mode and continuous stimulation mode. Results: The intensities and frequencies of pulsed magnetic field can be adjustable in the range of 1.9–4.6 mT and 3–5 kHz, respectively. This PMF was safe to the MSCs. However, the uptake of SPIO nanoparticles by MSCs was significantly prohibited under the treatment of kHz-ranged PMF while the 10 Hz PMF enhanced the cellular uptake of nanoparticles. This phenomenon was relative with the magnetic effect of the PMF with different frequency. Conclusion: The PMF can be used to effectively regulate the cellular uptake of SPIO nanoparticles and the mechanism lies in the magnetic effect. Significance: The interaction between SPIO nanoparticles and the MSCs is a fundamental and important issue for nanomedicine and stem cell research. Our results demonstrate that the external magnetic field can be used to regulate their interaction. We believe that this safe, facile, and flexible method will greatly promote the development and clinical translation of regenerative medicine and nanomedicine.
