Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising tool for cell therapy, and gene-modified MSCs further expand their applications. To take full advantage of MSCs as a therapeutic approach, developing effective gene transfer methods is critical. Calcium phosphate transfection is well-established and safe, but the protocols need to be optimized according to different cell types. Currently, there is no optimized protocol for MSCs. This study optimized the protocol of calcium phosphate transfection for MSCs and highlighted the importance of serum during the process of transfection. More interestingly, the behavior of gene overexpression in MSCs in the in vivo environment was verified.
