Abstract
New types of stem cells, derived from the tissues of the nasal inferior turbinates (hTMSCs), hold promise for regenerative medicine applications. These cells can be readily obtained from tissue donated during turbinectomy or conchotomy procedures. In this study, polyethyleneimine (PEI) was investigated as a gene carrier for hTMSCs using a non-viral delivery system. DNA-PEI nanoparticles (NPs) were generated via electrophoresis and characterized for particle size. The cytotoxicity and transfection efficiency of the DNA-PEI NPs were evaluated in hTMSCs through fluorescence imaging, flow cytometry, and MTT assays following a 4-hour treatment. While DNA-PEI NP treatment exhibited some cytotoxic effects, electrostatic interactions improved transfection efficiency. These findings demonstrate the potential of PEI as an efficient DNA carrier for hTMSCs, suggesting their suitability for gene therapy applications in regenerative medicine
