Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO-PAA), ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO-PAA), and glucosamine-modified iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO-PAA-GlcN) were studied as mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) labels for cell tracking applications by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Pronounced differences were found in the labeling performance of the three samples in terms of cellular dose and labeling efficiency. In combination with polylysine, SPIO-PAA showed nonhomogeneous cell internalization, while for USPIO-PAA no uptake was found. On the contrary, USPIO-PAA-GlcN featured high cellular uptake and biocompatibility, and sensitive detection in both in vitro and in vivo experiments was found by MRI, showing that glucosamine functionalization can be an efficient strategy to increase cell uptake of ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles by MSCs.
