Core Tip |
Chemotherapy is the main treatment strategy for cancer. Despite the rapid development of medicine, conventional chemotherapy has some limitations. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) which can increase solubility, prolong the circulation time and reduce toxicity are already in use today, and show great promise in clinical development. This is due to their favorable properties as a nanocarrier, such as high surface area, tailorable pore sizes, controllable particle sizes and shapes, and dual-functional surfaces (exterior and interior). MSNs based therapies have remarkable benefits in both in vitro and in vivo testing. These nanosystems may lead to major advances in individualized treatment and have great potential for clinical translation. |
