Abstract Researches proving methods for nano-encapsulation of neonatal porcine islet-like cell clusters (NPCCs) using polymersomes (PSomes) formed using polymers of polyethylene glycol-block-poly lactide. Herein, our studies present efficient nano-encapsulation procedure with minimal damage and loss of NPCCs.We used N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) on the N-terminal of PSomes to induce binding of amine groups in the extracellular matrix surrounding NPCCs. F-10 culture medium with bovine serum albumin was used in the nano-encapsulation procedure to minimize damage and loss of NPCCs. Finally, we induced cross-linking between bifunctional PSomes (NHS-/NH2-PSomes). F-10 culture medium containing 0.25% BSA with pH of 7.3 minimized the damage and loss of NPCCs after nano-encapsulation as compared with using basic HBSS buffer (pH 8.0). Also, we induced the efficient nano-encapsulation through conjugation of PSomes using bifunctional PSomes (NHS-/NH2-PSomes). |
