N
erve growth factor (NGF)-loaded heparinized cationic solid lipid nanoparticles (NGF-loaded HCSLNs) were developed using
heparin-stearic acid conjugate, cacao butter, cholesterol, stearylamine (SA), and esterquat 1 (EQ 1). The effect of cationic
lipids and lipid matrix composition on the particle size, particle structure, surface molecular composition, chemical structure,
electrophoretic mobility, and zeta potential of HCSLNs was investigated. The effect of HCSLNs on the membrane charge of induced
pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) was also studied. The results indicated that the average diameter of HCSLNs was 90-240 nm and the
particle size of HCSLNs with EQ 1 was smaller than that with SA. The zeta potential and electrophoresis analysis showed that HCSLNs
with SA had a positively charged potential and HCSLNs with EQ 1 had a negatively charged potential at pH 7.4. The high-resolution
transmission electron microscope confirmed the loading of NGF on the surface of HCSLNs. Differentiation of iPSCs using NGF-
loaded HCSLNs with EQ 1 exhibited higher absolute values of the electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential than differentiation
using NGF-loaded HCSLNs with SA. The immunochemical staining of neuronal nuclei revealed that NGF-loaded HCSLNs can
be used for differentiation of iPSCs into neurons. NGF-loaded HCSLNs with EQ 1 had higher viability of iPSCs than NGF-loaded
HCSLNs with SA. NGF-loaded HCSLNs with EQ 1 may be promising formulation to regulate the membrane charge of iPSCs during
neuronal differentiation.
