WITHDRAWN: Synthesis of Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Loaded Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for Controlled Co-Delivery of Drugs

Abstract

Herein, a biocompatible and nontoxicity novel type of hydrophobic and hydrophilic co-delivery systems based on co-polymer chitosan-graft-PMMA (ch-g-PMMA) modified Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) for cancer therapy was prepared. The pores of MSNPs were loaded with curcumin (CUR) and doxorubicin (DOX) with co-polymer ch-g-PMMA were gated the pores of MSNPs to prevent the release of drugs. These synthesized ch-g-PMMA/MSNPs dual drug-loaded are effectively allowed for co-delivery of drug combinations with improved efficacy. The dual drug loaded MSNPS were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis. The TEM and XRD results proved the successful loading of drugs into the pores of hexagonal structure MSNPs with size ~180nm, CUR and DOX were released from the MSNPs only in acid –triggered manner. The cytotoxicity studied were carried out for ch-g-PMMA/MSNPs dual drug-loaded against adenocarcinoma gastric cell line (AGS) shows that MSNPs was highly biocompatible and well suitable for drug carrier.
