Gold Nanostrip Array-Mediated Wireless Electrical Stimulation for Accelerating Functional Neuronal Differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Neural stem cell (NSC)-based therapy holds great promise for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Presently, however, it is hindered by poor functional neuronal differentiation. Electrical stimulation is considered one of the most effective ways to promote neuronal differentiation of NSCs. In addition to surgically implanted electrodes, traditional electrical stimulation includes wires connected to the external power supply, and an additional surgery is required to remove the electrodes or wires following stimulation, which may cause secondary injuries and infections. Herein, a novel method is reported for generation of wireless electrical signals on an Au nanostrip array by leveraging the effect of electromagnetic induction under a rotating magnetic field. The intensity of the gen
