The generation of iPSCs from somatic cells can be achieved by the delivery of defined transcription factor (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc[OSKM]). However, most instances of iPSC-generation have been achieved by potentially harmful genome-integrating viral vectors. Here we report the generation of iPSCs from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) using arginine-terminated generation 4 polyamidoamine (G4Arg) nanoparticles as a nonviral transfection vector for the delivery of a single plasmid construct carrying OSKM (pOSKM). Our results showed that G4Arg nanoparticles delivered pOSKM into MEFs at a significantly higher transfection efficiency than did conventional transfection reagents. After serial transfections of pOSKM-encapsulated G4Arg nanoparticles, we successfully generated iPSCs from MEFs. Our study demonstrates that G4Arg nanoparticles may be a promising candidate for generating of virus-free iPSCs that have great potential for clinical application.
