Hydrophilic mesoporous carbon nanoparticles as carriers for sustained release of hydrophobic anti-cancer drugs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The uniform mesoporous carbon nanoparticles (MCNs) with size below 200 nm and good water dispersibility were successfully synthesized via a combined hydrothermal synthesis and hard templating. The prepared MCNs served as effective carriers for camptothecin which efficiently inhibited the growth of MCF-7 cancer cells after its sustained release therein.

Study of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles as Nanocarriers for Sustained Release of Curcumin
Curcumin (CUR) is a hydrophobic molecule and beneficial antioxidant with known anticancer property. The bioavailability of curcumin is low because of its hydrophobic structure. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) loaded by CUR were used as nanocarriers for sustained release of CUR in four different media such as simulated gastric,intestinal, colon and body fluids (SGF, SIF, SCF, and SBF, ...
متن کاملDelivering hydrophilic and hydrophobic chemotherapeutics simultaneously by magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles to inhibit cancer cells
Using nanoparticles to deliver chemotherapeutics offers new opportunities for cancer therapy, but challenges still remain when they are used for the delivery of multiple drugs, especially for the synchronous delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs in combination therapies. In this paper, we developed an approach to deliver hydrophilic-hydrophobic anticancer drug pairs by employing magneti...
متن کاملControllable delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs from electrospun poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/mesoporous silica nanoparticles composite mats.
Co-delivery of several drugs has been regarded as an alternative strategy for achieving enhanced therapeutic effect. In this study, a co-delivery system based on the electrospun poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)/mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) composite mat was designed for the co-encapsulation and prolonged release of one hydrophilic and one hydrophobic drug simultaneously. MSNs were...
متن کاملUltra-small mesoporous silica nanoparticles as efficient carriers for pH responsive releases of anti-cancer drugs.
Mesoporous silica has emerged as one of the most promising carriers for drug delivery systems. However, the synthesis of ultra-small mesoporous silica nanoparticles (UMSNs) and their application in drug delivery remains a significant challenge. Here, spherical UMSNs (∼25 nm) have been synthesized and tested as drug carriers. Anti-cancer drugs mitoxantrone (MX), doxorubicin (DOX) and methotrexat...

Background: A novel drug delivery system using poly (ε-caprolactone) - poly (ethylene glycol) -poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEG-PCL) was established in this study. Methods: Ceftriaxone (CTX) was encapsulated within PCL-PEG-PCL nanoparticles by a double emulsion technique (w/o/w), leading to creation of ceftriaxone-loaded PCL-PEG-PCL (CTX/PCL-PEG-PCL) polymersomes. The resulting polymersomes...
