Soft Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoplatforms Improve Blood Circulation, Tumor Accumulation/Penetration, and Photodynamic Efficacy.

ABSTRACT: To date, the ability of nanoplatforms to achieve excellent therapeutic responses is hindered by short blood circulation and limited tumor accumulation/penetration. Herein, a soft mesoporous organosilica nanoplatform modified with hyaluronic acid and cyanine 5.5 are prepared, denoted SMONs-HA-Cy5.5, and comparative studies between SMONs-HA-Cy5.5 (24.2 MPa) and stiff counterparts (79.2 MPa) are conducted. Results indicate that, apart from exhibiting a twofold increase in tumor cellular uptake, the soft nanoplatforms also display a remarkable pharmacokinetic advantage, resulting in considerably improved tumor accumulation. Moreover, SMONs-HA-Cy5.5 exhibits a significantly higher tumor penetration, achieving 30-μm deeper tissue permeability in multicellular spheroids relative to the stiff counterparts. Results further reveal that the soft nanoplatforms have an easier extravasation from the tumor vessels, diffuse farther in the dense extracellular matrix, and reach deeper tumor tissues compared to the stiff ones. Specifically, the soft nanoplatforms generate a 16-fold improvement (43 vs. 2.72 μm) in diffusion distance in tumor parenchyma. Based on the significantly improved blood circulation and tumor accumulation/penetration, a soft therapeutic nanoplatform is constructed by loading photosensitizer chlorin e6 in SMONs-HA-Cy5.5. The resulting nanoplatform exhibits considerably higher therapeutic efficacy on tumors compared to the stiff ones.

Photo-responsive degradable hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoplatforms for drug delivery.

Project description:BackgroundStimulus-responsive degradable mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (MONs) have shown great promise as drug carriers via enhancing the efficiency of drug delivery and accelerating the degradation of nanocarriers. However, it remains a great challenge to develop novel light-enabled spatial and temporal degradable MONs with both superior responsiveness for efficient anti-cancer drug delivery and safe exocytosis.ResultsWe report a novel photo-responsive degradable hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoplatform (HMONs@GOQD). The platform is based on organosilica nanoparticles (HMONs) containing singlet oxygen (1O2)-responsive bridged organoalkoxysilanes and wrapped graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs). The unique hollow mesoporous structure of the HMONs guarantees an excellent drug loading and release profile. During light irradiation, 1O2 produced by the GOQDs leads to the degradation of the organosilica nanoparticles, resulting in enhanced local drug release.ConclusionsWe carried out in vitro and in vivo experiments using DOX as a model drug; DOX-HMONs@GOQDs exhibited high biocompatibility, accelerated degradation, and superior therapeutic efficacy during light irradiation, indicating a promising platform for clinical cancer therapy.

Acidity/Reducibility Dual-Responsive Hollow Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoplatforms for Tumor-Specific Self-Assembly and Synergistic Therapy.

Project description:Featured with a large surface area, uniform interpenetrating mesopores, diverse organic framework hybridization, and well-defined surface properties, the hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticle (HMON) represents a promising paradigm in drug delivery systems with excellent biocompatibility. However, effective tumor accumulation and precise cancer theranostics of the HMON still remain a challenge. In this study, an "ammonia-assisted hot water etching" method is applied for the successful construction of sub-50 nm thioether/phenylene dual-hybridized HMON with low hemolytic effect. Particularly, the surface modification with Mo(VI)-based polyoxometalate (POM) clusters drives the self-assembly of HMON in the mild acidic tumor microenvironment (TME) to achieve enhanced tumor retention and accumulation. More importantly, the reducibility-activated Mo(VI)-to-Mo(V) conversion within POM not only endows the POM-anchored HMON with outstanding TME-responsive photoacoustic (PA) imaging contrast and photothermal therapy (PTT) performance but also plays an indispensable role in controllably triggering the decomposition of the Mn2(CO)10 payload for CO release, which gives rise to remarkable synergistic PTT-enhanced CO gas therapy for complete tumor eradication. By harnessing the unique acidic and redox properties of TME, the judiciously designed smart POM-anchored HMON nanoplatform is expected to act as a "magic bomb" to selectively destroy cancer without damaging normal tissues. This nanoplatform holds significant potential in realizing TME-responsive self-assembly for enhanced tumor accumulation and precise tumor-specific synergistic therapy, which is very promising for clinical translation.

Oxygen-Evolving Mesoporous Organosilica Coated Prussian Blue Nanoplatform for Highly Efficient Photodynamic Therapy of Tumors.

Project description:Oxygen (O2) plays a critical role during photodynamic therapy (PDT), however, hypoxia is quite common in most solid tumors, which limits the PDT efficacy and promotes the tumor aggression. Here, a safe and multifunctional oxygen-evolving nanoplatform is costructured to overcome this problem. It is composed of a prussian blue (PB) core and chlorin e6 (Ce6) anchored periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) shell (denoted as PB@PMO-Ce6). In the highly integrated nanoplatform, the PB with catalase-like activity can catalyze hydrogen peroxide to generate O2, and the Ce6 transform the O2 to generate more reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon laser irradiation for PDT. This PB@PMO-Ce6 nanoplatform presents well-defined core-shell structure, uniform diameter (105 ± 12 nm), and high biocompatibility. This study confirms that the PB@PMO-Ce6 nanoplatform can generate more ROS to enhance PDT than free Ce6 in cellular level (p < 0.001). In vivo, the singlet oxygen sensor green staining, tumor volume of tumor-bearing mice, and histopathological analysis demonstrate that this oxygen-evolving nanoplatform can elevate singlet oxygen to effectively inhibit tumor growth without obvious damage to major organs. The preliminary results from this study indicate the potential of biocompatible PB@PMO-Ce6 nanoplatform to elevate O2 and ROS for improving PDT efficacy.

Dual Delivery of Tetramethylpyrazine and miR-194-5p Using Soft Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoparticles for Acute Lung Injury Therapy.

Project description:BackgroundThe respiratory system is intensely damaged by acute lung injury (ALI). The anti-inflammatory effects of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) against ALI have been confirmed, but it exhibits a short half-life. miR-194-5p could directly target Rac1, but the internalization rate of miRNA cells was low.PurposeTo explore the potential of the soft mesoporous organic silica nanoplatform (NPs) as carriers for delivery of TMP and miR-194-5p through the tail vein.MethodsNPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p were added to the HUVEC cell-lines, in vitro, to observe the cell uptake and cytotoxic effects. In vivo experiments were conducted by injecting fluorescently labeled NPs through the tail vein and tracking distribution. Therapeutic and toxic side-effects were analyzed systemically.ResultsIn vitro study exhibited that NPs have no toxic effect on HUVECs within the experimental parameters and have excellent cellular uptake. The IVIS Spectrum Imaging System shows that NPs accumulate mainly in the lungs. NPs@TMP treatment can improved oxidative stress and inflammation levels in ALI mice and inhibited the TLR4/NLRP3/caspase 1 pathway. NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p can inhibit the Rac1/ZO-1/occludin pathway and improved endothelial cell permeability in ALI mice. The co-treatment of NPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p can significantly improved the survival rates of the mice, reduced pulmonary capillary permeability and improved pathological injury in ALI mice.InnovationThis study combined traditional Chinese medicine, bioinformatics, cellular molecular biology and nanobiomedicine to study the pathogenesis and treatment of ALI. The rate of cellular internalization was improved by changing the shape and hardness of nanoparticles. NPs@TMP and NPs@PEI@miR-194-5p combined application can significantly improve the survival condition and pathological injury of mice.ConclusionNPs loaded with TMP and miR-194-5p showed a greater therapeutic effect in ALI mice.

Enhanced anti-glioma efficacy of biodegradable periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles through target delivery of chemotherapeutics.

Project description:Glioma is the most common malignant tumor of the brain and enhancing the efficacy of chemotherapy in glioma is critical for improving patients' prognosis. In this study, a glioma-targeting drug delivery system is constructed using biodegradable periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (PMO) that are modified with lactoferrin (Lf) ligands. The obtained PMO is doped with thioether groups and can be degraded in the high concentration of glutathione in tumor cells. The surface area and pore volume of PMO are 772 cm2/g and 0.98 cm3/g, respectively and the loading capacity of doxorubicin (Dox) is as high as 20%. The results of the confocal laser scanning microscope show that the uptake of PMO-Lf@Dox by C6 cells is higher than PMO@Dox. The quantitative analysis of the flow cytometer further demonstrates that more PMO-Lf@Dox enter C6 cells, indicating that the modification of lactoferrin can significantly increase the uptake of C6 cells. Finally, the therapeutic efficacy results show that Lf-modified PMO enhances the inhibitory effect of Dox on C6 cells when incubated for 24 h and 72 h. In summary, this lactoferrin receptor-mediated PMO drug carrier with biodegradability in glutathione in tumor cells can be used to enhance drug delivery into glioma without long-term accumulation in vivo. In this study, a glioma-targeting drug delivery system is constructed using periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (PMO) that modified with lactoferrin (Lf) ligands. This lactoferrin receptor-mediated PMO drug carrier can be used to enhance drug delivery into brain glioma.

Mesoporous Silica vs. Organosilica Composites to Desulfurize Diesel.

Project description:The monolacunary Keggin-type [PW11O39]7- (PW11) heteropolyanion was immobilized on porous framework of mesoporous silicas, namely SBA-15 and an ethylene-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMOE). The supports were functionalized with a cationic group (N-trimethoxysilypropyl-N, N, N-trimethylammonium, TMA) for the successful anchoring of the anionic polyoxometalate. The PW11@TMA-SBA-15 and PW11@TMA-PMOE composites were evaluated as heterogeneous catalysts in the oxidative desulfurization of a model diesel. The PW11@TMA-SBA-15 catalyst showed a remarkable desulfurization performance by reaching ultra-low sulfur levels (<10 ppm) after only 60 min using either a biphasic extractive and catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ECODS) system (1:1 MeCN/diesel) or a solvent-free catalytic oxidative desulfurization (CODS) system. Furthermore, the mesoporous silica composite was able to be recycled for six consecutive cycles without any apparent loss of activity. The promising results have led to the application of the catalyst in the desulfurization of an untreated real diesel supplied by CEPSA (1,335 ppm S) using the biphasic system. The system has proved to be a highly efficient process by reaching desulfurization values higher than 90% for real diesel during three consecutive cycles.

Mitochondria-targeted nanoplatforms for enhanced photodynamic therapy against hypoxia tumor.

Project description:BackgroundPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising therapeutic modality that can convert oxygen into cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) via photosensitizers to halt tumor growth. However, hypoxia and the unsatisfactory accumulation of photosensitizers in tumors severely diminish the therapeutic effect of PDT. In this study, a multistage nanoplatform is demonstrated to overcome these limitations by encapsulating photosensitizer IR780 and oxygen regulator 3-bromopyruvate (3BP) in poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanocarriers.ResultsThe as-synthesized nanoplatforms penetrated deeply into the interior region of tumors and preferentially remained in mitochondria due to the intrinsic characteristics of IR780. Meanwhile, 3BP could efficiently suppress oxygen consumption of tumor cells by inhibiting mitochondrial respiratory chain to further improve the generation of ROS. Furthermore, 3BP could abolish the excessive glycolytic capacity of tumor cells and lead to the collapse of ATP production, rendering tumor cells more susceptible to PDT. Successful tumor inhibition in animal models confirmed the therapeutic precision and efficiency. In addition, these nanoplatforms could act as fluorescence (FL) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging contrast agents, effectuating imaging-guided cancer treatment.ConclusionsThis study provides an ideal strategy for cancer therapy by concurrent oxygen consumption reduction, oxygen-augmented PDT, energy supply reduction, mitochondria-targeted/deep-penetrated nanoplatforms and PA/FL dual-modal imaging guidance/monitoring. It is expected that such strategy will provide a promising alternative to maximize the performance of PDT in preclinical/clinical cancer treatment.

Biomimetic Redox-Responsive Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoparticles Enhance Cisplatin-Based Chemotherapy.

Project description:Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is dominated in several cancers; however, insufficient therapeutic outcomes and systemic toxicity hamper their clinical applications. Controlled release of cisplatin and reducing inactivation remains an urgent challenge to overcome. Herein, diselenide-bridged mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (MON) coated with biomimetic cancer cell membrane were tailored for coordination responsive controlled cisplatin delivery and GSH depletion to strengthen Pt-based chemotherapy. Cisplatin-loaded MON (MON-Pt) showed high loading capacity due to robust coordination between selenium and platinum atoms and preventing premature leakage in normal tissue. MON-Pt exhibited a controlled release of activated cisplatin in response to the redox tumor microenvironment. Meanwhile, MON-Pt containing redox-responsive diselenide bonds could efficiently scavenge intracellular inactivation agents, such as GSH, to enhance Pt-based chemotherapy. 4T1 breast cancer cell membranes cloaked MON-Pt (MON-Pt@CM) performed efficient anticancer performance and low in vivo system toxicity due to long blood circulation time and high tumor accumulation benefiting from the tumor targeting and immune-invasion properties of the homologic cancer cell membrane. These results suggest a biomimetic nanocarrier to control release and reduce the inactivation of cisplatin for efficient and safe Pt-based chemotherapy by responding and regulating the tumor microenvironment.

Mesoporous Organosilica Nanoparticles with Tetrasulphide Bond to Enhance Plasmid DNA Delivery.

Project description:Cellular delivery of plasmid DNA (pDNA) specifically into dendritic cells (DCs) has provoked wide attention in various applications. However, delivery tools that achieve effective pDNA transfection in DCs are rare. Herein, we report that tetrasulphide bridged mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (MONs) have enhanced pDNA transfection performance in DC cell lines compared to conventional mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The mechanism of enhanced pDNA delivery efficacy is attributed to the glutathione (GSH) depletion capability of MONs. Reduction of initially high GSH levels in DCs further increases the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORc1) pathway activation, enhancing translation and protein expression. The mechanism was further validated by showing that the increased transfection efficiency was apparent in high GSH cell lines but not in low GSH ones. Our findings may provide a new design principle of nano delivery systems where the pDNA delivery to DCs is important.

Periodic Mesoporous Organosilica Nanocubes with Ultrahigh Surface Areas for Efficient CO? Adsorption.

Project description:Ultrahigh surface area single-crystals of periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMOs) with uniform cubic or truncated-cubic morphology and organic/inorganic components homogeneously distributed over the whole frameworks have successfully been prepared by a sol-gel surfactant-templating method. By tuning the porous feature and polymerization degree, the surface areas of the obtained PMO nanocubes can reach as high as 2370?m(2)/g, which is the highest for silica-based mesoporous materials. The ultrahigh surface area of the obtained PMO single crystals is mainly resulted from abundant micropores in the mesoporous frameworks. Furthermore, the diameter of the nanocubes can also be well controlled from 150 to 600?nm. The materials show ultrahigh CO2 adsorption capacity (up to 1.42?mmol/g at 273?K) which is much higher than other porous silica materials and comparable to some carbonaceous materials. The adsorption of CO2 into the PMO nanocubes is mainly in physical interaction, therefore the adsorption-desorption process is highly reversible and the adsorption capacity is much dependent on the surface area of the materials. Moreover, the selectivity is also very high (~11 times to N2) towards CO2 adsorption.
