Gene expression in cells encapsulated within different types of alginate microcapsules

ABSTRACT: D1 multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (D1‐MSCs,ATCC® CRL 12424TM) and genetically modified with the lentiviral vector pSIN‐EF2‐Epo‐Pur to express erythropoietin (EPO). D1‐MSCs genetically modified to release EPO were immobilized into 3D alginatepoly‐ L‐lysine‐alginate (APA) microcapsules. Since different formulations of alginate 1.5%, poly‐L‐lysine 0.05%, alginate 0.1% and washings were designed, two types of APA microcapsules were obtained: Biological microcapsules (made of Biological formulations) and Technological microcapsules (made of Technological formulations). The expression of the cells under different conditions of these two types of microcapsules have been analyzed. The present analysis proved that the mechanical properties of the matrix in which cells are enclosed influences
