Abstract
Nanosized mesoporous silica has emerged as a promising flexible platform delivering siRNA for cancer treatment. This ordered mesoporous nanosized silica provides attractive features of well-defined and tunable porosity, structure, high payload, and multiple functionalizations for targeted delivery and increasing biocompatibility over other polymeric nanocarriers. Moreover, it also overcomes the lacunae associated with traditional administration of drugs. Chemically modified porous silica matrix efficiently entraps siRNA molecules and prevents their enzymatic degradation and premature release. This Review discusses the synthesis of silica using the sol-gel approach and the advantages with different silica mesostructure. Herein, the factors affecting the synthesis of silica at nanometer scale, shape, porosity and nanoparticle surface modification are also highlighted to attain the desired nanostructured silica carriers. Additional emphasis is given to chemically modified silica delivering siRNA, where the silica nanoparticle surface was modified with different chemical moieties such as amine modified with (3-aminoropyl) triethoxysilane, polyethylenimine, chitosan, poly(ethylene glycol), and cyclodextrin polymer modification to attain high therapeutic loading, improved dispersibility and biocompatibility. Upon systemic administration, ordered mesoporous nanosized silica encounters blood cells, immune cells, and organs mainly of the reticuloendothelial system (RES). Thereby, biocompatibility and biodistribution of silica based nanocarriers are deliberated to design principles for smart and efficacious nanostructured silica-siRNA carriers and their clinical trial status. This Review further reports the future scopes and challenges for developing silica nanomaterial as a promising siRNA delivery vehicle demanding FDA approval.

Abstract
A novel coarse-grained (CG) model to study the self-assembly of silica/surfactant mesostructures during the synthesis of periodic mesoporous silica is reported. Molecular dynamics simulations of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (also called cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, or CTAB) surfactants in water and in aqueous silicate solutions have been performed to understand micelle formation, micelle growth, and their size evolution during the synthesis of surfactant-templated mesoporous materials. Direct comparison of density profiles obtained for preassembled micelles employing an all-atom description, AA, with those calculated with the CG model has been carried out for checking the validity of the latter model. Good agreement between AA and CG approaches was found, demonstrating the potential of the CG approximation for modeling these highly complex systems. The micelle formation and micelle fusion/fission processes were analyzed after performing long CG simulations for surfactant and ionized silica-surfactant aqueous solutions. We observed the formation of rodlike micelles in the case of silica-surfactant solutions, while spherical micelles were stable under the same conditions for the CTAB+H(2)O system. This demonstrates that the interaction of anionic silicates with cationic surfactants promotes a sphere-to-rod transition in surfactant solutions, a key step in the synthesis of nanoporous silica materials.

Abstract
The solubilization of phenols in micelles of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide leads to microstructural changes from spherical micelles to wormlike micelles and then to vesicles. These microstructures are then used to template silicas. There is a transition from highly ordered hexagonal mesoporous silicas of the M41S family to lamellar structures, as the phenolic dopant concentration is increased. The results have implication to the removal of phenols from aqueous waste streams through the micellar enhanced ultrafiltration process. The entrapment of phenols in mesoporous silicas provides a way to sequester such contaminants in concentrated form.

Abstract
The evolution of the solution microstructures during the formation of the hexagonal mesoporous material SBA-15 was studied by direct imaging and freeze-fracture replication cryo-TEM. A reaction mixture was sampled at different times after the addition of tetramethoxyorthosilane (TMOS) to an acidic solution of Pluronic P123 held at 50 degrees C. Solution microstructures were detected by direct imaging cryo-TEM in the time window of 6.5-40 min after the addition of the TMOS (t = 0). The micrographs revealed that the initial spheroidal micelles evolve into threadlike micelles, which become longer and straighter with time. Then bundles with the dimensions similar to those found in the final material appeared, although there was no sign of a hexagonal arrangement up to 40 min. Due to the appearance of a precipitate at 40 min the sample became too viscous, preventing clear observation of its content. To observe the structures present after 40 min, freeze-fracture replication was carried out as well. Such samples were collected also at 22 min and showed the presence of threadlike micelles in agreement with the direct imaging cryo-TEM micrographs. The 2 h samples showed some areas of hexagonal ordered structures, which become very clear at 2 h 50 min. The cryo-TEM measurements were carried out under the same reaction conditions used in earlier in situ EPR experiments, thus allowing us to correlate molecular level events with the microstructure shape evolutions. This showed that the elongation of the micelles is a consequence of a reduction of the polarity and the water content within the micelles due to silicate adsorption and polymerization. Similar experiments were carried out also on SBA-15 prepared with HCl and TMOS at 35 degrees C. The appearance of threadlike micelles, followed by clustering of the TLMs, was observed under these conditions as well, but the reaction rate was faster. This suggests that the observed mechanism for the formation of SBA-15 is general.
