Here, we first introduced ultrasound to a chitosan-mediated gene delivery system, and investigated its effect on the transfection efficiency of this system. During ionic gelation, chitosan and pAcGFP1-C1 plasmid DNA spontaneously interacted to yield Chitosan-DNA nanoparticles (Chi-DNA NPs) with mean Z-average diameters range of 227–292 nm while Chitosan-alginate-DNA nanoparticles (Chi-alg-DNA NPs) had diameters range of 536–654 nm at various N:P ratio, which could potentially protect DNA from nuclease attack and provide beneficial properties for gene delivery. In 293T cells, the transfection efficiency could be enhanced by ultrasound up-to 30% in Chi-DNA NPs (at 3:1 & 5:1 N:P ratio) and 25% improvement of total transfected cells in Chi-alg-DNA NPs (at all ratio we tested). In comparison, transfection efficiency in Hela cells of our system was similar to Lipofectamine™2000. In sum, the combination of the two promising gene transfection strategies, chitosan-based nanoparticle and ultrasound-induced gene delivery system, could enhance gene transfection in vitro depending on the cell type with relatively minor cytotoxicity compared to the commercial liposome gene delivery agent. |
