Methods:To address this issue, DNA-loaded CaP-NP were plated on cochlea electrodes and characterised by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray-spectrometry. Secondly, glass cover slips were coated with CaP-NP in a layer-by-layer method combined with polylysine. Interaction between CaP-NP and inner ear cells was analyzed via immunhistochemical staining of inner ear cells of newborn rats.Results:Electrophoretic plating on CI-electrodes was feasible. However, only minor concentrations of CaP-NP could be attached. In contrast, a layer-by-layer method allowed higher concentrations of CaP-NP to be precipitated on the surface. Immunhistochemical staining of the inner ear cells revealed adequate biocompatibility of CaP-NP including non-neural cell proliferation and axonal sprouting of inner ear cells.Discussion:Coating surfaces with functionalised nanoparticles is a feasible and successful method. A layer-by-layer method enables plating of higher amounts of CaP-NP and thus more efficient transport of proteins, DNA, RNA, or drugs. CaP-NP show sufficient biocompatibility towards inner ear cells.
