Research progress in stimuli-responsive mesoporous silica nano drug delivery systems for tumor therapy / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

In recent years, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been widely used in the construction of various intelligent drug delivery systems due to their unique and excellent properties. The stimuli-responsive drug delivery system based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles can effectively load anticancer drugs and target them to tumor cells, and then responsively release anticancer drugs under the action of specific stimulation signals. The method of specifically delivering anticancer drugs to target sites not only can greatly improvethe drug efficacy, but also effectively reduce the side effects of anticancer drugs on normal tissues and organs. Thereby the advantages of anticancer drugs in tumor therapy are improved. In this paper, the applications and developments of stimuliresponsive mesoporous silica nano drug delivery systems in tumor therapy were summarized.
