The purpose of this article is to synthesize the thiol-and carboxyl-bifunctionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (CMS-SH-COOH). CMS-SH-COOH was successfully synthesized by co-condensation and post-grafting methods. Moreover, the particle size and structural properties of CMS-SH-COOH were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The obtained results indicated that the CMS-SH-COOH presented a uniform spherical shape with a wormhole arrangement of the mesopores and a relatively narrow paticle distribition. Therefore, the CMS-SH-COOH might be a great potential carrier for the drug delivery system in the future.

The use of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) in the field of oral drug delivery has recently attracted greater attention. However, there is still limited knowledge about how the shape of MSNs affects drug delivery capacity. In our study, we fabricated mesoporous silica nanorods (MSNRs) to study the shape effects of MSNs on oral delivery. MSNRs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption/desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and small-angle X-ray diffraction (small-angle XRD). Indomethacin (IMC), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, was loaded into MSNRs as model drug, and the drug-loaded MSNRs resulted in an excellent dissolution-enhancing effect. The cytotoxicity and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies indicated that MSNRs can be applied as a safe and efficient candidate for the delivery of insoluble drugs. The use of MSNs with a rod-like shape, as a drug delivery carrier, will extend the pharmaceutical applications of silica materials.
