Functionalized Mesoporous Silica as Doxorubicin Carriers and Cytotoxicity Boosters

Functionalized Mesoporous Silica as Doxorubicin Carriers and Cytotoxicity Boosters

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) bearing methyl, thiol or glucose groups were synthesized, and their encapsulation and release behaviors for the anticancer drug Doxorubicin (Dox) were investigated in comparison with nonporous homologous materials. The chemical modification of thiol-functional...
