Title: Effects of novel mRNA-VEGF@USPIO nanoparticles on human brain microvascular endothelial cell injury
Author: Jiang Zhao, Zhiyuan Qian

Abstract: We investigated the effect of mRNA-VEGF@ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) nanoparticles on the repair of human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMECs) injury and its related mechanisms. mRNA-VEGF@USPIO nanoparticles were designed, prepared, and characterized using NTA and UV spectrophotometry. Cell viability was determined using the CCK-8. Cells in the control, TNF-α, and mRNA-VEGF@USPIO groups were sequenced and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Finally, a functional analysis of the DEGs was performed. Both NTA and spectrophotometry results indicated that mRNA-VEGF@USPIO was successfully constructed. TNF-α significantly reduced cell viability and promoted apoptosis compared with the control group (p
