Carbon‐Quantum‐Dots‐Loaded Mesoporous Silica Nanocarriers with pH‐Switchable Zwitterionic Surface and Enzyme‐Responsive Pore‐Cap for Targeted Imaging and Drug Delivery to Tumor

Abstract: Mesoporous silica nanocarriers with pH-switchable antifouling zwitterionic surface, enzyme responsive drug release properties and blue fluorescence are reported. Prolonged circulation in the blood system with zero premature release as well as efficient cellular uptake and intracellular drug release in tumor tissue are achieved.

“…Under physiologic and HixsonCrowell standard conditions, haloperidol (anti-psychotic) grafted CQDs with cysteamine hydrochloride can be used for controlled release for up to 40 h. In addition to bioimaging, conjugation of ciprofloxacin (a broad spectrum antibiotic) with CQDs under physiologic conditions also gave an efficient new nanocarrier for controlled drug release. 12,44,45 Nanomedicine CQDs, being small fluorescent NPs, serve as a better alternative to other fluorescent nanomaterials. CQDs have an appreciable application in nanomedicine because they do not cause any kind of toxicity in animals.…”

“…Finally, pores were loaded with DOX and closed upon the addition of PCL, which was physisorbed in pore outlets via an impregnation process. 66 At pH 6.8, the zwitterionic surface became positive due to the protonation of the carboxylic moieties and the esterase-triggered Please do not adjust margins DOX release. In the presence of esterase at a pH higher than 6.8, no release was noted due to the repulsion between the zwitteronic layer and the enzyme.…”
