Mesenchymal stem cells therapies have the potential to treat many pathologies, however, controlling cell fate after implantation remains challenging. We have used a multilayer technology to graft a range of 5 μg/mL - 5 mg/mL heparin onto the surface of MSC aggregates. Heparin coating does not affect cell viability (seen through LIVE/DEAD staining), cell anti-inflammatory properties (seen through co-culture with activated monocytes)and facilitates sequestration by coated cells of a growth factor (TGF-β1) that remains bioactive. This system can maximize therapeutic potential of MSC-based treatments because the cell surface-loaded protein could both signal to the cells to influence transplanted cell fate and be released into the surrounding environment to help repair injured tissue.
