| Abstract | Due to the unique physicochemical properties and membrane-permeable capacity, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are considered as an ideal carrier for intracellular delivery. Herein, we endeavored to address the size effect of MSNs on the cellular uptake, endosomal escape and controlled release, the key steps for the intracellular delivery. The well-ordered MSNs in the range from 55-nm to 440-nm with similar pore texture were prepared by modified base-catalyzed sol–gel method. With MC3T3-E1 model cell line, the in vitro results indicated that after 12 h cultivation, MSNs within 55 ~ 440 nm could all be internalized into the cells, and further escaped out of the endosomal compartment. The efficiency of the cellular uptake and endosomal escape strongly depended on the particle size, with the best efficiencies from 100-nm MSNs. Furthermore, the MTT results indicated that these MSNs materials were all biocompatible. The controlled release experiments with hydrophobic dexamethasone and hydrophilic vitamin C as models showed that for these small-molecular drugs, the loading amount all mainly determined by the surface area of the MSNs, and the subsequent release of the drug dramatically decreased with the increasing of the particle size. By contrast, the release rate of vitamin C was much quicker than that of the dexamethasone. These findings presented here could provide new means to tailor the size of MSNs and thus to guide the design of MSNs-based intracellular delivery system. Due to the good cell biocompatibility, high cellular uptake and endosomal escape, we conjectured that the 100-nm MSNs are more favorable for the intracellular delivery of drugs in live cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
