Optimization is a process utilized to discover the best condition to generate the best possible outcome. One of the common optimization method used in the field of chemistry is response surface methodology (RSM). This method consists of mathematical and statistical techniques which relate the responses with the variables of interest. There are many experimental designs in RSM, and one of the most common one is the Box-Behnken design (BBD). In this work, BBD was employed to analyze the main effects and interactions of the reaction temperature, amount of template, and amount of triethanolamine (TEA) on the two responses which are the surface area (SA) and particle size (PS) of ionic liquid templated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). It was found that the SA and PS were fitted with linear and quadratic models, respectively. MSNs with the highest surface area (999.051 m2 g-1) was chosen for the application of drug delivery; thus, drug loading and drug release experiments were conducted. From these studies, it was found that 37% of drug (quercetin) was successfully encapsulated in MSN and, in 48 hours, 32% of the drug was released.

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) is an attractive candidate as a drug delivery carrier due to their large surface area, high pore volume and t intrinsic biocompatibility. Here, MSNs were synthesized by the hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) acting as structural directing agent. A large mesopore with diameter of 3.8 to 5.5 nm of MCM-41style can be obtained via the addition of 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene. Metoprolol tartrate as a selective β1 receptor blocker was embedded on MSNs by the incipient wetness impregnation. The delivery profiles were collected in vitro in SBF at pH 7.4. A close correlation can be observed between the drug release kinetic and the mesopore size and specific surface area of MSNs.

Galactosylated Chitosan

Targeted drug delivery to colon cancer cells can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment. We firstly synthesized carboxyl-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN–COOH) via two-step synthesis, and then developed calcium leucovorin (LV)-loaded carboxyl-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles based on galactosylated chitosan (GC), which are galectin receptor-mediated materials for colon-specific drug delivery systems. Both unmodified and functionalized nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), nitrogen sorption, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Drug release properties and drug loading capacity were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry (UV). LV@MSN–COOH/GC had a high LV loading and a drug loading of 18.07%. In vitro, its release, mainly by diffusion, was sustained release. Cell experiments showed that in SW620 cells with the galectin receptor, the LV@MSN–COOH/GC metabolized into methyl tetrahydrofolic acid (MTHF) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)@MSN–NH2/GC metabolized into FdUMP in vivo. MTHF and 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate (FdUMP) had combined inhibition and significantly downregulated the expression of thymidylate synthase (TS). Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry experiments show that MSN–COOH/GC has tumor cell targeting, which specifically recognizes and binds to the galectin receptor in tumor cells. The results show that the nano-dosing system based on GC can increase the concentrations of LV and 5-FU tumor cells and enhance their combined effect against colon cancer.

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) find tremendous applications in drug delivery due to several advantages such as their easy fabrication process, high drug loading, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and so forth. Nevertheless, despite several advantages, the use of this striking drug delivery carrier is restricted due to premature drug release owing to the porous structure. Coating of the pores using polymers has emerged as a great solution to this problem. Polymer coatings, which act as gatekeepers, avoid the premature release of loaded content from MSNs and offers the opportunity for controlled and targeted drug delivery. Therefore, in this review, we have compiled the polymer-based coating approaches used in recent years for improving the drug delivery capability of MSNs. This manuscript provides an insight into the research about the potential of polymer-coated MSNs, allowing the selection of right polymer for coating purposes according to the desired application.

Biphenyl wrinkled mesoporous silica nanoparticles with controlled particle size and high surface area were evaluated for the storage and delivery of doxorubicin. The average particle size and surface area were ~70 nm and ~1100 m2/g. The doxorubicin loading efficiency was 38.2 ± 1.5 (w/w)% and the release was pH dependent. The breast cancer cell line, MCF-7 (Michigan Cancer Foundation-7) was used for the in vitro drug release study. The cytotoxicity of doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles was significantly higher than free doxorubicin. Fluorescence images showed biphenyl wrinkled mesoporous silica (BPWS) uptake by the MCF-7 cells. The biphenyl bridged wrinkled silica nanoparticles appear promising for hydrophobic drug loading and delivery.

Abstract Andrographolide (AG) has favorable anti-inflammatory and antioxidative capacity. However, it has low bioavailability due to high lipophilicity and can be easily cleared by the synovial fluid after intra-articular injection, leading to low therapeutic efficiency in osteoarthritis (OA). Herein, we designed a nano-sized pH-responsive drug delivery system (DDS) for OA treatment by using modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with pH-responsive polyacrylic acid (PAA) for loading of AG to form AG@MSNs-PAA nanoplatform. The nanoparticles have uniform size (∼120 nm), high drug loading efficiency (22.38 ± 0.71%) and pH-responsive properties, beneficial to sustained release in OA environment. Compared with AG, AG@MSNs-PAA showed enhanced antiarthritic efficacy and chondro-protective capacity based on IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes and anterior cruciate ligament transection-induced rat OA model, as demonstrated by lower expression of inflammatory factors and better prevention of proteoglycan loss. Therefore, the AG@MSNs-PAA nanoplatform may be developed as a promising OA-specific and on-demand DDS.

Hollow Mesoporous Silica

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have attracted significant attention from researchers thanks to their high surface area and pore volume, which can increase drug loading capacity. Moreover, MSNs, with their biocompatibility and ease of surface functionalization, are seen as potential drug delivery system. However, the loading of drug into MSNs system still needs further improvement. In this study, hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) were fabricated in order to increase the drug loading capacity of nanosilica materials. The synthesized HMSNs possessed inner hollow cores that could remarkably raise the total pore volume and thus improve the capacity for cargo loading. HMSNs were synthesized according to the hard-template method with three main steps: (1) forming of solid SiO2 nanoparticles as templates, (2) forming of core-shell structure by coating MSN layers onto the templates, and (3) forming of hollow core structure by etching away the solid template. The HMSNs product was characterized by TEM, XRD, TGA and FTIR. In addition, drug loading capacity of the material was evaluated with doxorubicin as model drug. The results indicated remarkable improvement in drug loading capacity, compared to MSN sample. Cell assays on cancer lines showed high biocompatibility. These results demonstrated the potential of HMSNs in the delivery of anticancer agents.
