Embodiment 1

[0308] Embodiment 1: Preparation of Si nanowires

[0309] Preparation of Si wafer substrate

[0310] Prior to deposition of polystyrene microspheres (PSMS, Polysciences, Inc.), flat silicon wafers (3″, p-type, 3–6 Ωcm, , Siltronix, France) were cut into quarter pieces and cut at 1 : 1 ethanol: acetone solution ultrasonic cleaning 5min, and then ultrasonic cleaning 5min again in MilliQ water. Then, soak the wafer in boiling piranha solution (3:1H 2 SO 4 :H 2 o 2v / v, 75°C, Avantor Performance Materials) for 1 h to remove any organic contaminants, then washed with water and dried under a nitrogen sparge.

[0311] convective assembly deposition

[0312] A hexagonal close-packed PSMS monolayer was deposited on a quarter-sheet 3″ Si wafer by convection assembly. The setup consisted of a mounted microscope slide used as a PSMS deposition blade, a 50 mm motorized translation stage (MTS50- Z8, Thorlabs, Inc.) and Compact Sub-Hertz Pendulum (CSP) Vibration Isolation System (TM...

Embodiment 2

[0321] Example 2: Preparation of Molecules

[0322] Preparation of fluorescently labeled plasmids

[0323] Using Label IT Tracker TM Intracellular Nucleic Acid Localization Kit (Mirus, Japan) adds fluorescent tags to molecules which are plasmids. Mix 5 µg of gWiz-GFP plasmid with 2.5 µL of Cy3, 5 µL of labeling buffer A (provided in the kit), and 37.5 µL of water to make a final volume of 50 µL. The mixture solution was then incubated at 37°C for 1 h. The Cy3-tagged plasmid was then purified by ethanol precipitation. Figure 13B showed that, for SiNWs, the loading efficiency of these plasmids was 79.4 ± 22.5%, which was comparable to that of the plasmids loaded onto flat Si substrates (81.2 ± 17.8%).

Embodiment 3

[0324] Embodiment 3: the preparation of cell culture

[0325] Four types of cell lines were investigated in this study: GPE86 (ATCC, mouse embryonic fibroblasts), L1.2 (ATCC, mouse B cells), Jurkat (ATCC, human CD4 + T cells), Ramos (ATCC, human B cells), primary human B cells (isolated from human tonsils, approved by the Australian National University Human Research Ethics Committee and University Hospital Institutional Review Board) and primary mouse T cells (isolated from From mouse lymph nodes, approved by the Animal Experimentation Ethics Committee of the Austrian National University). GPE86 cells in 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco), 1mM sodium pyruvate, 2mM L-glutamine, 100U mL -1 Penicillin and 100 μg mL -1 Grow and maintain in complete Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM (Gibco)) with streptomycin (Gibco). L1.2, Jurkat and Ramos cells in complete RPMI (RPMI-1640 (Gibco), which includes i0% FBS, 10mM HEPES, 1 × non-essential amino acid solution (Gibco), 1mM s...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates generally methods of delivering molecules into cells using nanowire (NWs). In particular, the method utilises a molecular delivery system comprising a nanowire (NW) array comprising a plurality of nanowires (NWs) which are used to deliver molecules into cells. The NWs can be functionalised with molecules that can be delivered into cells following contact (e.g. penetration) by the NWs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to molecular delivery systems and methods of using the molecular delivery systems to deliver molecules into cells. The molecular delivery system includes a nanowire array (NW) including a substrate and a plurality of nanowires (NW). Background technique [0002] Intracellular delivery of bioactive molecules to cells is critical for a number of advanced therapeutic, clinical and research applications. Intracellular delivery of molecules (e.g., nucleic acids) can be achieved using a variety of methods, including viral methods (e.g., adenoviruses, retroviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpes simplex viruses, and vaccinia viruses), chemical methods (e.g., lipotransfer staining, calcium phosphate, DEA-dextran) and physical methods (eg, electroporation, bombardment, microinjection). [0003] However, there is still a need to develop high-throughput, scalable, efficient, flexible and non-destructive platforms for th...
