A mesoporous silica nanosphere-based carrier system with chemically removable CdS nanoparticle caps for stimuli-responsive controlled release of neurotransmitters and drug molecules

An MCM-41 type mesoporous silica nanosphere-based (MSN) controlled-release delivery system has been synthesized and characterized using surface-derivatized cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanocrystals as chemically removable caps to encapsulate several pharmaceutical drug molecules and neurotransmitters inside the organically functionalized MSN mesoporous framework. We studied the stimuli-responsive release profiles of vancomycin- and adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-loaded MSN delivery systems by using disulfide bond-reducing molecules, such as dithiothreitol (DTT) and mercaptoethanol (ME), as release triggers. The biocompatibility and delivery efficiency of the MSN system with neuroglial cells (astrocytes) in vitro were demonstrated. In contrast to many current delivery systems, the molecules of interest were encapsulated inside the porous framework of the MSN not by adsorption or sol-gel types of entrapment but by capping the openings of the mesoporous channels with size-defined CdS nanoparticles to physically block the drugs/neurotransmitters of certain sizes from leaching out. We envision that this new MSN system could play a significant role in developing new generations of site-selective, controlled-release delivery nanodevices.     

Enhancing Isolated Ti(Ⅳ) Framework Sites in HMS

Ti-HMS materials were prepared by grafting titanocene onto the inner walls of hexagonal mesoporous silica (HMS). The materials were characterized via powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy, and thermo-gravimetric analysis. The template of HMS was removed by calcination,ethanol-extraction, and ethanol-extraction followed by hydrolysis. The available grafting sites of OH groups depend on the different template removal methods of HMS. Ethanol-extraction followed by hydrolysis favors site-isolated Ti atoms in HMS. The catalytic performances of Ti-HMS materials were tested in the oxidation of 4-tert-butyltoluene with aqueous hydrogen peroxide. Ti-HMS prepared from HMS via the processing of ethanol-extraction followed by hydrolysis as support gave a maximum conversion of 7. 5% and a complete selectivity to 4-tert-butyl-benzaldehyde, and showed a higher activity compared with those prepared by calcination and ethanol-extraction.

A polyamidoamine dendrimer-capped mesoporous silica nanosphere-based gene transfection reagent

We synthesized a MCM-41-type mesoporous silica nanosphere (MSN)-based gene transfection system, where second generation (G2) polyamidoamines (PAMAMs) were covalently attached to the surface of MSN. The G2-PAMAM-capped MSN material (G2-MSN) was used to complex with a plasmid DNA (pEGFP-C1) that encodes for an enhanced green fluorescence protein. The gene transfection efficacy, uptake mechanism, and biocompatibility of the G2-MSN system with various cell types, such as neural glia (astrocytes), human cervical cancer (HeLa), and Chinese hamster ovarian (CHO) cells, were investigated. The mesoporous structure of the MSN material allows membrane-impermeable molecules, such as pharmaceutical drugs and fluorescent dyes, to be encapsulated inside the MSN channels. The system renders the possibility to serve as a universal transmembrane carrier for intracellular drug delivery and imaging applications.

Dual Soft‐Template System Based on Colloidal Chemistry for the Synthesis of Hollow Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles

A new dual soft‐template system comprising the asymmetric triblock copolymer poly(styrene‐b‐2‐vinyl pyridine‐b‐ethylene oxide) (PS‐b‐P2VP‐b‐PEO) and the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is used to synthesize hollow mesoporous silica (HMS) nanoparticles with a center void of around 17 nm. The stable PS‐b‐P2VP‐b‐PEO polymeric micelle serves as a template to form the hollow interior, while the CTAB surfactant serves as a template to form mesopores in the shells. The P2VP blocks on the polymeric micelles can interact with positively charged CTA⁺ ions via negatively charged hydrolyzed silica species. Thus, dual soft‐templates clearly have different roles for the preparation of the HMS nanoparticles. Interestingly, the thicknesses of the mesoporous shell are tunable by varying the amounts of TEOS and CTAB. This study provides new insight on the preparation of mesoporous materials based on colloidal chemistry.

Synthesis of mesoporous silica nanoparticles and nanorods: Application to doxorubicin delivery

The synthesis and application of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) and mesoporous silica nanorods (MSNR) for drug delivery were described. MSN or MSNR were obtained by adjusting the amount of added cosolvent to the sol-gel solution. Therefore, the addition of ethanol (EtOH) has contributed to the control of the particle shape and to the structure of the mesoporosity. MSN and MSNR particles were then loaded with doxorubicin and incubated with MCF-7 breast cancer cells. MSN and MSNR particles were efficient in killing cancer cells but their behavior in drug delivery was altered on account of the difference in their morphology. MSN showed a burst release of doxorubicin in cells whereas MSNR showed a sustained delivery of the anti-cancer drug.     

Selective Encapsulation and Enhancement of the Emission Properties of a Luminescent Cu(I) Complex in Mesoporous Silica

We describe a synthetic approach to prepare new luminescent silica‐based materials through the encapsulation of a neutral copper(I) complex inside the pores of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The copper(I) complex is present, in the solid state, as two polymorphs, blue and yellow emissive, and in solution it shows a pale yellow color that is also mirrored by an emission in the yellow‐orange region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The X‐ray structures of single crystals have been obtained for both polymorphs. The complex encapsulation in MSN is achieved by its entrapment inside micelles followed by condensation of the silica source. Interestingly, the entrapment leads to the isolation of only one species. Indeed, the compound inside the MSN exhibits remarkable photophysical properties, showing an intense blue emission in solution and in the solid state. Powder X‐ray diffraction of the hybrid materials proves that the complex entrapped in MSN is indeed the blue polymorph. The confinement provides not only a method to isolate only one form of the complex, but also a certain rigidity, more stability of the system by protection of the complex from undesirable oxidation, leading to a highly emissive material possessing a photoluminescence quantum yield of 65%.

Mesoporous silica particles for selective detection of dopamine with β-cyclodextrin as the selective barricade

A mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) based fluorescent sensor for dopamine was constructed with probes inside particle pores and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) molecules on the particle surface as the selective barricade. The synergistic action of both the hydrophilic rim and hydrophobic cavity of β-CD ensures that the sensor can distinguish dopamine from other biological competitors.

3D Hexagonal Mesoporous Silica and Its Organic Functionalization for High CO2 Uptake

Highly ordered 3D‐hexagonal mesoporous silica HMS‐3 and its vinyl‐ and 3‐chloropropyl‐functionalized analogues HMS‐4 and ‐5, respectively, are synthesized under strongly alkaline conditions at 277 K. Tetraethyl orthosilicate, vinyltrimethoxysilane, and 3‐chloropropyltrimethoxysilane are used as silica sources, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as the structure‐directing agent. The 3D‐hexagonal pore structures of HMS‐3, 4‐, and ‐5 were confirmed by powder XRD and high‐resolution TEM studies. Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface areas of these materials are 1353, 1211, and 603 m² g^?1 for HMS‐3, ‐4, and ‐5, respectively. Among these materials, vinyl‐functionalized mesoporous material HMS‐4 adsorbs the highest CO₂ (5.5 mmol g^?1, 24.3 wt %) under 3 bar pressure at 273 K. The 3D‐hexagonal pore openings, very high surface area, and cagelike mesopores as well as organic functionalization could be responsible for very high CO₂ uptakes of these materials compared to other related mesoporous silica‐based materials.     

An Adjustable pH‐Responsive Drug Delivery System Based on Self‐Assembly Polypeptide‐Modified Mesoporous Silica

In this study, an adjustable pH‐responsive drug delivery system using mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as the host materials and the modified polypeptides as the nanovalves is reported. Since the polypeptide can self‐assemble via electrostatic interaction at pH 7.4 and be disassembled by pH changes, the modified poly(l ‐lysine) and poly(l ‐glutamate) are utilized for pore blocking and opening in the study. Poly(l ‐lysine)‐MSN (PLL‐MSN) and poly(l ‐glutamate)‐MSN (PLG‐MSN) are synthesized via the ring opening polymerization of N‐carboxyanhydrides onto the surface of mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The successful modification of the polypeptide on MSN is proved by Zeta potential change, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), solid state NMR, and MALDI‐TOF MS. In vitro simulated dye release studies show that PLL‐MSN and PLG‐MSN can successfully load the dye molecules. The release study shows that the controlled release can be constructed at different pH by adjusting the ratio of PLL‐MSN to PLG‐MSN. Cellular uptake study indicates that the drug is detected in both cytoplasm and nucleus, especially in the nucleus. In vitro cytotoxicity assay indicates that DOX loaded mixture nanoparticles (ratio of PLL‐MSN to PLG‐MSN is 1:1) can be triggered for drug release in HeLa cells, resulting in 88% of cell killing.

Effect of Support Calcination Temperature on Ag Structure and Catalytic Activity for CO Oxidation

SiO₂ with different nanostructures, namely hexagonal mesoporous silica(HMS), and three unordered commercial silica, were used as supports to fabricate silver catalysts using an incipient wetness impregnation method. It was found that Ag/HMS catalyst showed a high catalytic activity. Next, the HMS support was calcined at different temperatures before impregnation of AgNO₃. The effect of calcination temperature of HMS support was investigated in terms of structure and catalytic activity of Ag catalysts. The support and catalysts were characterized by N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms, Thermogravimetric-differential thermal analyzer, X-ray diffraction, H₂-temperature program reduction and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that calcination of HMS at an appro- priate temperature(750℃) before catalyst preparation would benefit the formation of highly dispersive small sized Ag particles on the HMS support and markedly enhance the catalytic activity of Ag/HMS catalyst toward CO oxidation.     

Controlling the selectivity of competitive nitroaldol condensation by using a bifunctionalized mesoporous silica nanosphere-based catalytic system

A series of bifunctionalized mesoporous silica nanosphere-based (MSN) heterogeneous catalysts for the nitroaldol (Henry) reaction have been synthesized. A common 3-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]propyl (AEP) primary group and three different secondary groups, ureidopropyl (UDP), mercaptopropyl (MP), and allyl (AL) functionalities, were incorporated to these mesoporous silica materials by introducing equal amounts of AEP-trimethoxysilane with UDP-, MP-, or AL-trialkoxysilane precursors to our previously reported co-condensation reaction. Structures and relative concentrations of the functional groups were detailed by solid-state NMR and other spectroscopic techniques. The AEP group served as a catalyst, and the other secondary groups provided different noncovalent interactions to reactants and thereby controlled the reaction selectivity. By varying the secondary group in these bifunctionalized MSN catalysts, we investigated the selectivity of a nitroaldol reaction of two competing benzaldehydes reacting with nitromethane by measuring the molar ratio of the nitroalkene products. The selectivity of the bifunctionalized MSN catalysts could be systematically tuned simply by varying the physicochemical properties of the pore surface-bound secondary groups, i.e., polarity and hydrophobicity.     

Vanadium-containing mesoporous silica of high photocatalytic activity and stability even in water

Vanadium-containing mesoporous silica molecular sieve (V proportional HMS) with tetrahedrally coordinated V-oxide species (VVO4) has been prepared by a modified surfactant-templating method, consisting of an addition of surfactant to a mixture of water, alcohol, and Si and V precursors followed by calcination. The V proportional HMS demonstrates high photocatalytic activity even in the presence of water, while other V proportional HMS's prepared by conventional templating methods and V/HMS prepared by an impregnation method show almost no activity owing to hydrolysis of the VVO4 species. ESR and photoluminescence measurements reveal that the modified templating method creates VVO4 species confined within a silica layer, while other methods create VVO4 species exposed on silica surface. The former VVO4 species are highly stabilized by the confinement within the silica, thus suppressing the hydrolysis. Another notable property of the confined VVO4 species is the higher photocatalytic activity even without water, despite their confined structure. This is explained by higher electrophilicity and longer lifetime of the excited-state VVO4 species (VIVO4*) derived from their distorted structure. The obtained findings suggest potential use of the modified surfactant-templating method for synthesis of stable and recyclable V-containing mesoporous silica with high photocatalytic activity.
