Abstract
Chitosan nanoparticles (NPs) serve as useful multidrug delivery carriers in cancer chemotherapy. Chitosan has considerable potential in drug delivery systems (DDSs) for targeting tumor cells. Doxorubicin (DOX) has limited application due to its resistance and lack of specificity. Chitosan NPs have been used for DOX delivery because of their biocompatibility, biodegradability, drug encapsulation efficiency, and target specificity. In this review, various types of chitosan derivatives are discussed in DDSs to enhance the effectiveness of cancer treatments. Modified chitosan-DOX NP drug deliveries with other compounds also increase the penetration and efficiency of DOX against tumor cells. We also highlight the endogenous stimuli (pH, redox, enzyme) and exogenous stimuli (light, magnetic, ultrasound), and their positive effect on DOX drug delivery via chitosan NPs. Our study sheds light on the importance of chitosan NPs for DOX drug delivery in cancer treatment and may inspire the development of more effective approaches for cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
In recent years, diverse redox-responsive drug delivery systems have emerged to prevent premature drug release and reduce drug toxicity in the human body in cancer treatment. In this paper, we put forward a view of directly utilizing the spatial structure size of the AS1411 aptamer as the nano-gatekeeper on the pore openings of MCM-41 type mesoporous silica and thus constructed a redox-responsive drug delivery system named MCM-41-SS-AS1411. The particles obtained at each step were characterized by TEM, FTIR, SXRD, TGA and zeta potential measurement. The characterization data confirmed that the particles were successfully prepared. The binding amount of the aptamer was ca. 3.1 × 103 for each carrier particle averagely. The anticancer drug Dox was regarded as a drug model to investigate the redox-controlled drug release behavior by fluorescence measurements. The investigation results demonstrate that the spatial volume of aptamer AS1411 can block the mesopore, and this drug-carrier can realize controlled drug release by GSH. We hope this idea can play a prompt role in relevant research. Meanwhile, the preparation steps of this DDS are simplified.

Abstract
The present review details a chronological description of the events that took place during the development of mesoporous materials, their different synthetic routes and their use as drug delivery systems. The outstanding textural properties of these materials quickly inspired their translation to the nanoscale dimension leading to mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The different aspects of introducing pharmaceutical agents into the pores of these nanocarriers, together with their possible biodistribution and clearance routes, would be described here. The development of smart nanocarriers that are able to release a high local concentration of the therapeutic cargo on-demand after the application of certain stimuli would be reviewed here, together with their ability to deliver the therapeutic cargo to precise locations in the body. The huge progress in the design and development of MSNs for biomedical applications, including the potential treatment of different diseases, during the last 20 years will be collated here, together with the required work that still needs to be done to achieve the clinical translation of these materials. This review was conceived to stand out from past reports since it aims to tell the story of the development of mesoporous materials and their use as drug delivery systems by some of the story makers, who could be considered to be among the pioneers in this area.

Abstract
The efficient and safe delivery of therapeutic drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids are essential for meaningful therapeutic benefits. The field of nanomedicine shows promising implications in the development of therapeutics by delivering diagnostic and therapeutic compounds. Nanomedicine development has led to significant advances in the design and engineering of nanocarrier systems with supra-molecular structures. Smart mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), with excellent biocompatibility, tunable physicochemical properties, and site-specific functionalization, offer efficient and high loading capacity as well as robust and targeted delivery of a variety of payloads in a controlled fashion. Such unique nanocarriers should have great potential for challenging biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, bioimaging techniques, stem cell research, and cancer therapies. However, in vivo applications of these nanocarriers should be further validated before clinical translation. To this end, this review begins with a brief introduction of MSNs properties, targeted drug delivery, and controlled release with a particular emphasis on their most recent diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Nanotechnology provides the means to design and fabricate delivery vehicles capable of overcoming physiologically imposed obstacles and undesirable side effects of systemic drug delivery. This protocol allows maximal targeting effectiveness and therefore enhances therapeutic efficiency. In recent years, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) have sparked interest in the nanomedicine research community, particularly for their promising applications in cancer treatment. The intrinsic physio-chemical stability, facile functionalization, high surface area, low toxicity, and great loading capacity for a wide range of chemotherapeutic agents make MSNPs very appealing candidates for controllable drug delivery systems. Importantly, the peculiar nanostructures of MSNPs enabled them to serve as an effective drug, gene, protein, and antigen delivery vehicle for a variety of therapeutic regimens. For these reasons, in this review article, we underscore the recent progress in the design and synthesis of MSNPs and the parameters influencing their characteristic features and activities. In addition, the process of absorption, dissemination, and secretion by injection or oral management of MSNPs are also discussed, as they are key directions for the potential utilization of MSNPs. Factors influencing the in vivo fate of MSNPs will also be highlighted, with the main focus on particle size, morphology, porosity, surface functionality, and oxidation. Given that combining other functional materials with MSNPs may increase their biological compatibility, monitor drug discharge, or improve absorption by tumor cells coated MSNPs; these aspects are also covered and discussed herein.

Abstract
To achieve the promise of stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems for the treatment of cancer, they should (1) avoid premature clearance; (2) accumulate in tumors and undergo endocytosis by cancer cells; and (3) exhibit appropriate stimuli-responsive release of the payload. It is challenging to address all of these requirements simultaneously. However, the numerous proof-of-concept studies addressing one or more of these requirements reported every year have dramatically expanded the toolbox available for the design of drug delivery systems. This review highlights recent advances in the targeting and stimuli-responsiveness of drug delivery systems. It begins with a discussion of nanocarrier types and an overview of the factors influencing nanocarrier biodistribution. On-demand release strategies and their application to each type of nanocarrier are reviewed, including both endogenous and exogenous stimuli. Recent developments in stimuli-responsive targeting strategies are also discussed. The remaining challenges and prospective solutions in the field are discussed throughout the review, which is intended to assist researchers in overcoming interdisciplinary knowledge barriers and increase the speed of development. This review presents a nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems toolbox that enables the application of techniques across platforms and inspires researchers with interdisciplinary information to boost the development of multifunctional therapeutic nanoplatforms for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The main reason for limited efficacy of anticancer drug is the poor accretion of administered amount of drug within the tumor. Here, chitosan folate capped dual responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) which can actively target cancer cells, and provide burst release of loaded anticancer drug within tumor cells and ultimately leading to improved therapeutic efficacy were synthesized. MSNs were synthesized using most economic silica source, sodium silicate. Doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded within the pores of MSNs and these drug loaded MSNs were first reacted with cystamine dihydrochloride followed by capping with chitosan-folate conjugate (CH-FA) to produce dual (redox and pH) responsive nanoparticles with the ability to actively target breast cancer cells. A triggered release of DOX from MSNs under acidic redox (pH 5.5, 10 mM GSH) environment was confirmed by in vitro release studies. The formulation exhibited 2.14 and 1.65 folds higher cytotoxicity than free drug against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. DOX-MSN-SS-CH-FA showed superior tumor suppressing activity as compared to DOX-MSN or DOX alone in the treatment of Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) induced breast cancer with significantly reduced hematological and organ specific toxicities associated with DOX treatment.

Abstract
Multifunctional drug carriers have great applications in biomedical field. In this study, we introduced both polydopamine (PDA) and zwitterionic polymer of poly(3-(3-methacrylamidopropyl-(dimethyl)-ammonio)propane-1-sulfonate) (PSPP) onto the surface of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) to develop a novel nanoparticle (MSNs@PDA-PSPP), which was employed as a new kind of drug carrier for the delivery of doxorubicin (DOX). The PDA coating, as a gatekeeper, could endow the drug carrier with pH-sensitive drug release performance. The outermost PSPP layer would make the drug carrier possess protein resistance performance. The chemical structure and properties were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). MSNs@PDA-PSPP could keep good colloidal stability within 72 h in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and protein solutions. Meanwhile, MSNs@PDA-PSPP exhibited a high drug loading for DOX. In vitro drug release experiments suggested MSNs-DOX@PDA-PSPP exhibited pH-dependent drug release behaviors. Besides, MSNs@PDA-PSPP had no cytotoxicity to human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2 cells) even at a concentration of 125 µg/mL. More importantly, cellular uptake and in vitro anticancer activity tests suggested that MSNs-DOX@PDA-PSPP could be taken up by HepG2 cells and DOX could be successfully released and delivered into the cell nuclei. Taken together, MSNs@PDA-PSPP have great potential in the biomedical field.

Abstract
The therapeutic outcome of chemotherapy is severely limited by intrinsic or acquired drug resistance, the most common causes of chemotherapy failure. In the past few decades, advancements in nanotechnology have provided alternative strategies for combating tumor drug resistance. Drug-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) have several advantages over the free drug forms, including reduced cytotoxicity, prolonged circulation in the blood and increased accumulation in tumors. Currently, however, nanoparticulate drugs have only marginally improved the overall survival rate in clinical trials because of the various pathophysiological barriers that exist in the tumor microenvironment, such as intratumoral distribution, penetration and intracellular trafficking, etc. Smart NPs with stimulus-adaptable physico-chemical properties have been extensively developed to improve the therapeutic efficacy of nanomedicine. In this review, we summarize the recent advances of employing smart NPs to treat the drug-resistant tumors by overcoming the pathophysiological barriers in the tumor microenvironment.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2016; 145:526-538.

Abstract
A glycyrrhetinic acid-modified chitosan-cystamine-poly(ε-caprolactone) copolymer (PCL-SS-CTS-GA) micelle was developed for the co-delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) and curcumin (CCM) to hepatoma cells. Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) was used as a targeting unit to ensure specific delivery. Co-encapsulation of DOX and CCM was facilitated by the incorporation of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) groups. The highest drug loading content was 19.8% and 8.9% (w/w) for DOX and CCM, respectively. The PCL-SS-CTS-GA micelle presented a spherical or ellipsoidal geometry with a mean diameter of approximately 110nm. The surface charge of the micelle changed from negative to positive, when the pH value of the solution decreased from 7.4 to 6.8. Meanwhile, it also exhibited a character of redox-responsive drug release and GA/pH-mediated endocytosis in vitro. In simulated body fluid with 10mM glutathione, the release rate in 12h was 80.6% and 67.2% for DOX and CCM, respectively. The cell uptake of micelles was significantly higher at pH 6.8 than pH 7.4. The combined administration of DOX and CCM was facilitated by PCL-SS-CTS-GA micelle. Results showed that there was strong synergic effect between the two drugs. The PCL-SS-CTS-GA micelle might turn into a promising and effective carrier for improved combination chemotherapy.

Abstract
In this paper, a redox and enzyme dual-stimuli responsive delivery system (MSN-SS-HA) based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) for targeted drug delivery has been developed, in which hyaluronic acid (HA) was conjugated on the surface of silica by cleavable disulfide (SS) bonds. HA possesses many attractive features, including acting as a targeting ligand and simultaneously a capping agent to achieve targeted and controlled drug release, prolonging the blood circulation time, and increasing the physiological stability and biocompatibility of MSN. The anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) was chosen as a model drug. In vitro drug release profiles showed that the release of DOX was markedly restricted in pH 7.4 and pH 5.0 phosphate buffer solution (PBS), while it was significantly accelerated upon the addition of glutathione (GSH)/hyaluronidases (HAase). In addition, the release was further accelerated in the presence of both GSH and HAase. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) showed that MSN-SS-HA exhibited a higher cellular uptake via cluster of differentiation antigen-44 (CD44) receptor-mediated endocytosis compared with thiol (SH)-functionalized MSN (MSN-SH) in CD44 receptor over-expressed in human HCT-116 cells. The DOX-loaded MSN-SS-HA was more cytotoxic against HCT-116 cells than NIH-3T3 (CD44 receptor-negative) cells due to the enhanced cellular uptake of MSN-SS-HA. This paper describes the development of an effective method for using a single substance as multi-functional material for MSN to simultaneously regulate drug release and achieve targeted delivery.

Abstract
The ever-growing interest for finding efficient and reliable methods for treatment of diseases has set a precedent for the design and synthesis of new functional hybrid materials, namely porous nanoparticles, for controlled drug delivery. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) represent one of the most promising nanocarriers for drug delivery as they possess interesting chemical and physical properties, thermal and mechanical stabilities, and are biocompatibile. In particular, their easily functionalizable surface allows a large number of property modifications further improving their efficiency in this field. This Concept article deals with the advances on the novel methods of functionalizing MSNPs, inside or outside the pores, as well as within the walls, to produce efficient and smart drug carriers for therapy.

Abstract
A redox-responsive delivery system based on colloidal mesoporous silica (CMS) has been developed, in which 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) was conjugated to vehicles by cleavable disulfide bonds. The oligosaccharide of hyaluronic acid (oHA) was modified on the surface of CMS by disulfide bonds as a targeting ligand and was able to increase the stability and biocompatibility of CMS under physiological conditions. In vitro release studies indicated that the cumulative release of 6-MP was less than 3% in the absence of glutathione (GSH), and reached nearly 80% within 2 h in the presence of 3 mM GSH. Confocal microscopy and fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) methods were used to evaluate the cellular uptake performance of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled CMS, with and without oHA modification. The CMS-SS-oHA exhibited a higher cellular uptake performance via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis in HCT-116 (CD44 receptor-positive) cells than in NIH-3T3 (CD44 receptor-negative) cells. 6-MP loaded CMS-SS-oHA exhibited greater cytotoxicity against HCT-116 cells than NIH-3T3 cells due to the enhanced cell uptake behavior of CMS-SS-oHA. This study provides a novel strategy to covalently link bioactive drug and targeting ligand to the interiors and exteriors of mesoporous silica to construct a stimulus-responsive targeted drug delivery system.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) are one of the most promising inorganic drug delivery systems (DDSs). The design and development of tumour-targeted MSNPs with stimuli-responsive drug release capability aim at enhancing the efficiency and minimising the side effects of anti-tumour drugs for cancer therapy. AREAS COVERED This review provides an overview of the scientific advances in MSNPs for tumour-targeted stimuli-responsive drug delivery. The key factors that govern the passive accumulation of MSNPs within solid tumours such as size, shape and surface functionalisation are roughly described. The different active targeting strategies for the specific retention and uptake of MSNPs by tumour cells are also outlined. The approaches developed so far for the synthesis of smart MSNPs capable of releasing the trapped drugs in response to internal or external stimuli and their applications are reviewed. Critical considerations in the use of MSNPs for the treatment of cancer treatment are discussed. The future prospects and key factors concerning the clinical application of MSNPs are considered throughout the manuscript. EXPERT OPINION MSNPs are promising nanocarriers to efficiently transport and site-specifically deliver highly toxic drugs, such as chemotherapeutic agents for cancer treatment. However, there are certain issues that should be overcome to improve the suitability of MSNPs for clinical applications. Increasing the penetration capability of MSNPs within tumour tissues, providing them of appropriate colloidal stability in physiological fluids and ensuring that their active targeting capability and stimuli-responsive performance are preserved in complex biological media are of foremost significance. Few in vivo evaluation tests of MSNPs have been reported and much research effort into this field is mandatory to be able to move from bench to bedside.

Abstract
Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that is often resistant to standard therapies. Resveratrol suppresses MTC growth in vitro, but it has low bioavailability in vivo due to its poor water solubility and rapid metabolic breakdown, as well as lack of tumor-targeting ability. A novel unimolecular micelle based on a hyperbranched amphiphilic block copolymer was designed, synthesized, and characterized for NET-targeted delivery. The hyperbranched amphiphilic block copolymer consisted of a dendritic Boltorn® H40 core, a hydrophobic poly(l-lactide) (PLA) inner shell, and a hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) outer shell. Octreotide (OCT), a peptide that shows strong binding affinity to somatostatin receptors, which are overexpressed on NET cells, was used as the targeting ligand. Resveratrol was physically encapsulated by the micelle with a drug loading content of 12.1%. The unimolecular micelles exhibited a uniform size distribution and spherical morphology, which were determined by both transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Cellular uptake, cellular proliferation, and Western blot analyses demonstrated that the resveratrol-loaded OCT-targeted micelles suppressed growth more effectively than non-targeted micelles. Moreover, resveratrol-loaded NET-targeted micelles affected MTC cells similarly to free resveratrol in vitro, with equal growth suppression and reduction in NET marker production. These results suggest that the H40-based unimolecular micelle may offer a promising approach for targeted NET therapy.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles with amino and thiol groups (MSNSN) were prepared and covalently modified with methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine to form 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX. In the presence of DTT, 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX gradually releases 6-MP. In rat plasma, 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX effectively inhibits the metabolic deactivation of 6-MP and MTX. 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX could be an agent for long-acting chemotherapy.

Abstract
A low cytotoxicity and high efficiency delivery system with the advantages of low cost and facile fabrication is needed for the application of small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery both in vitro and in vivo. For these prerequisites, cationic polymer-mesoporous silica nanoparticles (ssCP-MSNs) were prepared by surface functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles with disulfide bond cross-linked poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA). In vitro and in vivo evaluations were performed. The synthesized ssCP-MSNs are 100-150 nm in diameter with a pore size of 10 nm and a positively charged surface with a high zeta potential of 27 mV. Consequently, the ssCP-MSNs showed an excellent binding capacity for siRNA, and an enhancement in the cell uptake and cytosolic availability of siRNA. Furthermore, the intracellular reducing cleavage of the disulfide bonds cross-linking the PDMAEMA segments led to intracellular cleavage of PDMAEMA from ssCP-MSNs, which facilitated the intracellular triggered release of siRNA. Therefore, promoted RNA interference was observed in HeLa-Luc cells, which was equal to that of Lipofectamine 2000. Significantly, compared to Lipofectamine 2000, the ssCP-MSNs were more biocompatible, with low cytotoxicity (even non-cytotoxicity) and promotion of cell proliferation to HeLa-Luc cells. The in vivo systemic distribution studies certified that ssCP-MSNs/siRNA could prolong the duration of siRNA in vivo, and that they accumulated in the adrenal gland, liver, lung, spleen, kidney, heart and thymus after intravenous injection. Encouragingly, with the ability to deliver siRNA to a tumor, ssCP-MSNs/siRNA showed a tumor suppression effect in the HeLa-Luc xenograft murine model after intravenous injection. Therefore, the ssCP-MSNs cationic polymer-mesoporous silica nanoparticles with low cytotoxicity are promising for siRNA delivery.

Abstract
To elucidate the importance of the size of capping agents in stimulus-induced release systems from mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), the effectiveness of poly(propylene imine) dendrimers in controlling the model drug release was studied. MCM-41-type MSNs were synthesized and characterized. Fluorescent compounds (fluorescein disodium salt and carboxyfluorescein) were loaded in the porous structure of the MSNs and entrapped in the silica matrix with the dendrimers of generations I through V by anchoring dendrimers on the MSN surface through disulfide bonds. Stimulus-induced release of the cargo was studied in the presence of dithiothreitol (DTT). Dendrimers of generations I and II were found to be more effective in model drug retention and subsequent release than higher generations. Moreover, MSNs modified with larger amounts of dendrimers lowered the cargo release in the presence of DTT. These findings are of importance for optimizing drug delivery systems based on responsive MSNs as they enable tuning of the amount of the released cargo by choosing the capping agent of appropriate size.

Abstract
With the advancement of drug delivery systems based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), a simple and efficient method regulating the drug release kinetics is needed. We developed redox-responsive release systems with three levels of hindrance around the disulfide bond. A model drug (rhodamine B dye) was loaded into MSNs' mesoporous voids. The pore opening was capped with β-cyclodextrin in order to prevent leakage of drug. Indeed, in absence of a reducing agent the systems exhibited little leakage, while the addition of dithiothreitol cleaved the disulfide bonds and enabled the release of cargo. The release rate and the amount of released dye were tuned by the level of hindrance around disulfide bonds, with the increased hindrance causing a decrease in the release rate as well as in the amount of released drug. Thus, we demonstrated the ability of the present mesoporous systems to intrinsically control the release rate and the amount of the released cargo by only minor structural variations. Furthermore, an in vivo experiment on zebrafish confirmed that the present model delivery system is nonteratogenic.

Abstract
For an efficient folate-targeted delivery, while the interaction between the folate on the carriers and the folate receptor (FR) on the cells is necessary, the recovering and recycling of FR to maintain a high density level of FR on the cellular membrane is also important. Herein, we demonstrate a design and synthesis of a new star-shaped cationic polymer containing a γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) core and multiple oligoethylenimine (OEI) arms with folic acid (FA) linked by a bioreducible disulfide bond for efficient targeted gene delivery. The newly synthesized cationic polymer, named γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA, could be cleaved efficiently, and FA was readily released under reductive condition similar to intracellular environment. The γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA polymer was well-characterized and studied in terms of its gene delivery properties in FR-positive KB cells and FR-negative A549 cells under various conditions, in comparison with cationic polymers such as high molecular weight branched polyethylenimine (PEI), γ-CD-OEI star-shaped cationic polymer, γ-CD-OEI-FA polymer where FA was directed linked to the star polymer without disulfide linker. Our data have demonstrated that the new γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA gene carrier had low cytotoxicity and possessed capacity to target and deliver DNA to specific tumor cells that overexpress FRs, as well as functions to recover and recycle FRs onto cellular membranes to facilitate continuous FR-mediated endocytosis to achieve very high levels of gene expression. This study has expanded the strategy of FA-targeted delivery by combining the smart FR-recycling function to achieve the significant enhancement of gene expression. The new FA-targeted and bioreducible carrier may be a promising efficient gene delivery system for potential cancer gene therapy.

Abstract
Controlled drug loading and release into tumor cells to increase the intracellular drug concentration is a major challenge for cancer therapy due to resistance and inefficient cellular uptake. Here a temperature and pH dually responsive PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 core-shell particles with internal controlled release were designed and fabricated for efficient cancer treatment, which could recognize the intrinsic pH differences between cancers and normal tissues. Upon lowering the temperature, doxorubicin was loaded into the PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 nanoparticles, whereas by increasing the acidity, previously loaded doxorubicin was quickly released. Comparing with common mesoporous silica particles (MSNs), this core-shell particle has more uniform size and better dispersity. In addition, dried PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 nanoparticles could be easily redispersed in distilled water. The in vitro cell culture experiments showed that not only PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 particles were more biocompatible and lower cytotoxic than MSN, but also DOX@PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 had higher drug releasing efficiency in the lysosomes and stronger inhibitory effect on tumor cell growth than DOX@MSN. All these features indicated that PNiPAM/AA@SiO2 particles have great potential in therapy applications.

Abstract
A multifunctional gold (Au) nanorod (NR)-based nanocarrier capable of co-delivering small interfering RNA (siRNA) against achaete-scute complex-like 1 (ASCL1) and an anticancer drug (doxorubicin (DOX)) specifically to neuroendocrine (NE) cancer cells was developed and characterized for combined chemotherapy and siRNA-mediated gene silencing. The Au NR was conjugated with (1) DOX, an anticancer drug, via a pH-labile hydrazone linkage to enable pH-controlled drug release, (2) polyarginine, a cationic polymer for complexing siRNA, and (3) octreotide (OCT), a tumor-targeting ligand, to specifically target NE cancer cells with overexpressed somatostatin receptors. The Au NR-based nanocarriers exhibited a uniform size distribution as well as pH-sensitive drug release. The OCT-conjugated Au NR-based nanocarriers (Au-DOX-OCT, targeted) exhibited a much higher cellular uptake in a human carcinoid cell line (BON cells) than non-targeted Au NR-based nanocarriers (Au-DOX) as measured by both flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Moreover, Au-DOX-OCT-ASCL1 siRNA (Au-DOX-OCT complexed with ASCL1 siRNA) resulted in significantly higher gene silencing in NE cancer cells than Au-DOX-ASCL1 siRNA (non-targeted Au-DOX complexed with ASCL1 siRNA) as measured by an immunoblot analysis. Additionally, Au-DOX-OCT-ASCL1 siRNA was the most efficient nanocarrier at altering the NE phenotype of NE cancer cells and showed the strongest anti-proliferative effect. Thus, combined chemotherapy and RNA silencing using NE tumor-targeting Au NR-based nanocarriers could potentially enhance the therapeutic outcomes in treating NE cancers.
