In this work, a new approach for surface-mediated gene delivery based on inclusion complex formation between the solid surface and delivery vehicles is presented. beta-Cyclodextrin (CD) molecules form high-affinity inclusion complexes with adamantane. This complexation ability was used to specifically immobilize beta-CD-modified poly(ethylenimine) (CD-PEI) nanoparticles on adamantane- (AD-) modified self-assembled monolayers. To investigate the nanoparticle/surface interaction, CD-PEI-based and PEI-based nanoparticles were passed through a surface plasmon resonance flow cell containing the monolayers. CD-PEI nanoparticles are specifically immobilized on the chip surface by cyclodextrin-adamantane inclusion complex formation. Minimal nanoparticle adsorption was detected with PEI-based nanoparticles or on control surfaces. Competition studies with free cyclodextrins reveal that the multivalent interactions between CD-PEI nanoparticles and the adamantane- modified surface results in significantly higher binding affinity than single cyclodextrin-adamantane complexes. Immobilized nanoparticles were characterized by atomic force microscopy and quantified by fluorescence assay. Thus, the ability of CD-PEI nanoparticles to form inclusion complexes can be exploited to attain specific, high-affinity loading of delivery vehicles onto solid surfaces.
