Currently, chemotherapy is an important method for the treatment of various cancers. Nevertheless, it has many limitations, such as poor tumour selectivity and multi-drug resistance. It is necessary to improve this treatment method by incorporating a targeted drug delivery system aimed to reduce side effects and drug resistance. The present work aims to develop pH-sensitive nanocarriers containing magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MMSNs) coated with pH-responsive polymers for tumour-targeted drug delivery via the folate receptor. 2-Diethyl amino ethyl methacrylate (DEAEMA) was successfully grafted on MMSNs via surface initiated ARGET atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), with an average particle size of 180 nm. The end groups of poly (2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDEAEMA) brushes were converted to amines, followed by a covalent bond with folic acid (FA) as a targeting agent. FA conjugated to the nanoparticle surface was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). pH-Responsive behavior of PDEAEMA brushes was investigated by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). The nanoparticles average diameters ranged from ca. 350 nm in basic media to ca. 650 in acidic solution. Multifunctional pH-sensitive magnetic mesoporous nanoparticles were loaded with an anti-cancer drug (Doxorubicin) to investigate their capacity and long-circulation time. In a cumulative release pattern, doxorubicin (DOX) release from nano-systems was ca. 20% when the particle exposed to acidic media, compared to ca. 5% in basic media. The nano-systems have excellent biocompatibility and are minimally toxic when exposed to MCF-7, and -MCF-7 ADR cells.

In the present study temperature and pH responsive co-polymer chitosan-g-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (CS-g-PNIPAAm) was synthesized, characterized and efficiently loaded with oxaliplatin. Nanoparticles were evaluated for their physicochemical properties. The drug loaded nanoparticles showed smooth and spherical morphology with loading efficiency and drug content of about 80.7% and 48.7%, respectively. The in vitro drug release was significantly higher at tumor extracellular pH and temperature when compared to physiological pH and temperature. In conclusion, the developed nanoparticulate system is an effective dual responsive targeted drug delivery system for oxaliplatin with low toxic side effects.

Polymeric nanoparticles have emerged as efficient carriers for anticancer drug delivery because they can improve the solubility of hydrophobic drugs and also can increase the bio-distribution of drugs throughout the bloodstream.

ABSTRACTA superparamagnetic Janus nanocomposite (SJNC) of polystyrene/Fe3O4@SiO2 was designed and developed with dual surface bearing functional groups for medical diagnosis and treatment. Folic acid (FA) and doxorubicin (DOX) were conjugated stepwise to the surfaces. SJNCs were found to enable simultaneous cell-targeted drug delivery via pH-responsive release mechanism.

Though modern available cancer therapies are effective, they possess major adverse effects, causing non-compliance to patients. Furthermore, the majority of the polymeric-based medication platforms are certainly not universally acceptable, due to their several restrictions. With this juxtaposition, lipid-based medication delivery systems have appeared as promising drug nanocarriers to replace the majority of the polymer-based products because they are in a position to reverse polymer as well as, drug-associated restrictions. Furthermore, the amalgamation of the basic principle of nanotechnology in designing lipid nanocarriers, which are the latest form of lipid carriers, has tremendous chemotherapeutic possibilities as tumor-targeted drug-delivery pertaining to tumor therapy. Apart from this, it is reported that nearly 40% of the modern medication entities are lipophilic. Moreover, research continues to be efficient in attaining a significant understanding of the absorption and bioavailability of the developed lipids systems.
