One Step

The mesoporous silica particles were prepared by the sol?gel method in one-step synthesis, in acidic conditions, from tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES), varying the mole ratio of the silica precursors. Nitric acid was used as catalyst at room temperature and hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as structure directing agent. Optical properties, porosity and microstructure of the materials in function of the MTES/TEOS ratio were evaluated using infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption and small angle X-ray scattering. All materials showed the ordered pore structure and the high specific surfaces, making them suitable as the drug delivery systems. Drug loading and release tests using ketoprofen were performed to assess their performance for drug delivery applications. The amount of the methylated precursor used in the synthesis had little effect on the drug loading capacity, but had a strong influence on the initial rate of the drug release.

High Drug Loading

Drug delivery carriers with a high drug loading capacity and biocompatibility, especially for controlled drug release, are urgently needed due to the side effects and frequent dose in the traditional therapeutic method. Guided by nanomaterials, we have successfully synthesized zirconium-based metal−organic frameworks, Zr-TCPP (TCPP: tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin), namely, PCN-222, which is synthesized by solvothermal method. And it has been designed as a drug delivery system (DDS) with a high drug loading of 38.77 wt%. In our work, PCN-222 has achieved pH-sensitive drug release and showed comprehensive SEM, TEM, PXRD, DSC, FTIR, and N2 adsorption-desorption. The low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility of PCN-222 were certificated by the in vitro results from an MTT assay, DAPI staining, and Annexin V/PI double-staining even cultivated L02 cells and HepG2 cells for 48h. Furthermore, Oridonin, a commonly used cancer chemotherapy drug, is adsorbed into PCN-222 via the solvent diffusion technique. Based on an analysis of the Oridonin release profile, results suggest that it can last for more than 7 days in vitro. And cumulative release rate of Ori at the 7 d was about 86.29% and 63.23% in PBS (pH 5.5 and pH 7.2, respectively) at 37°C. HepG2 cells were chosen to research the cytotoxicity of PCN-222@Ori and free Oridonin. The results demonstrated that the PCN-222@Ori nanocarrier shows higher cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells compared to Oridonin.

Abstract Background Metal based nanomaterials play essential roles in the fields of cancer diagnosis and therapy, drug delivery and exploration. As a novel kind of metal nanocomposites, magnetic-plasmonic nanohybrids are promising candidates in combined therapy. However, few studies have demonstrated the multi-responsive drug delivery properties of the nanohybrids. In this work, novel Fe3O4-Ag heterodimer nanoparticles coated with mesoporous SiO2 were prepared for multi-responsive drug release applications. Results Seed growth method was employed to form the heterodimer particles, and a layer of mesoporous silica was coated on the particle to improve the biocompatibility of metal nanoparticles, which also acted as drug loading and release component. Characterized via infrared spectroscopy, X-Ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, the particles were confirmed to appear a Janus like structure with Fe3O4 and Ag hemispheres encapsulating in silica. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was loaded on the surface of the particles for drug delivery. The drug loading efficiency, release performance and the apoptosis action of the particles on MCF-7 cells were investigated in vitro. The results showed that DOX was successfully loaded on the particles with encapsulation efficiency of 88.3% and drug loading of 30.6%. And the release amount after 48 h increased from 10.05 ± 0.19% to 68.53 ± 8.20% as the environment was tuned to acidic, indicating an obvious pH response of the particles. Simultaneously, due to the photothermal effect of Ag hemispheres, the particles had exhibited an enhanced drug release stimulated by 808 nm near infrared (NIR) irradiation. And the results of apoptosis assay were in accord with the drug release profiles. Besides, the particles could well respond to an external magnetic field, which is beneficial to particle location or recovery. Conclusion The as-prepared particles exhibit good magnetic and photothermal properties originating from Fe3O4 and Ag hemispheres respectively, which are desired features in magnetic hyperthermia and photothermal therapy. The particles also possess pH and NIR light responsive drug release properties, enabling triggered and targeted drug delivery.

Average Size

The drug loading capability and inherent cytotoxicity of mesoporous silica particles are two prime considerations for targeted drug delivery applications. In current study, uncoated mesoporous silica (UMS) carrier particles were synthesized by sol-gel emulsion approach. The morphology and structure of UMS was thoroughly characterized using atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET). The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements reveal that mono dispersed silica particles have an average size of 250 nm with narrow size distribution. The pore size was measured as 47nm. Concentration dependent biocompatibility of UMS was evaluated using MTT assay with Hep-2c cancer cell line and cell viability of ~65% at concentrations of 7.5 nM was observed. Finally, the drug loading capability of UMS carrier was studied using ibuprofen as a model drug.

Tumor Cell Death

Tumor-targeted drug delivery systems represent challenging and widely investigated strategies to enhance cancer chemotherapy. In this study, we introduce a novel high-hydrophilic mesoporous silica nanoparticle system with a pH-sensitive drug release. The resultant composite nanoparticles appear as spheres of uniform size (450±25 nm) with a porous structure, which enables a high drug-loading ratio. Through modification of chitosan and polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether, the modified mesoporous silica was non-toxic to normal cells, but effective at inducing tumor cell death. With regard to the characteristics of drug release, the modified mesoporous silica clearly displayed a pH-stimulated release of the model drug doxorubicin hydrochloride in an acidic phosphate buffer solution (pH 4.0 and 6.0). The release was much greater than that observed in neutral or alkaline phosphate buffer solutions (pH 7.3 and 8.0). Furthermore, the release behavior was in accordance with the Higuchi model, indicating that this modified mesoporous silica drug delivery system can exhibit controlled release. The above results imply that the modified mesoporous silica is an effective drug delivery system for cancer therapy.

Multifunctional Nanocarriers

In this paper, a novel, multifunctional polymer nanocarrier was designed to provide adequate volume for high drug loading, to afford a multiregion encapsulation ability, and to achieve controlled drug release. An amphiphilic, triblock polymer (ABC) with hyperbranched polycarbonsilane (HBPCSi) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) moieties were first synthesized by the combination of a two-step reversible addition-fragmentation transfer polymerization into a pseudo-one-step hydrosilylation and quaternization reaction. The ABC then self-assembled into stable micelles with a core–shell structure in aqueous solution. These resulting micelles are multifunctional nanocarriers which possess higher drug loading capability due to the introduction of HBPCSi segments and β-CD moieties, and exhibit controlled drug release based on the diffusion release mechanism. The novel multifunctional nanocarrier may be applicable to produce highly efficient and specialized delivery systems for drugs, genes, and diagnostic agents.
