Objective: To explore the inhibitory and synergistic effects of 5-fluorouracil and curcumin on Hep-2 laryngeal cancer cells and clarify the effect of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as drug carriers. Methods: The inhibitory effects of 5-fluorouracil and curcumin on Hep-2 cells were detected using the CCK-8 assay. CompuSyn was used to calculate the synergistic effect of the 2 drugs. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis and cell cycle arrest induced by 5-fluorouracil and curcumin. The drugs were loaded into mesoporous nanoparticles. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of related proteins after treatment. The growth of subcutaneous tumors in BALB/c nude after the intraperitoneal injection with drug-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles was recorded. Results: 5-Fluorouracil and curcumin synergistically induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in Hep-2 cells. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles as drug carriers enhanced the therapeutic effects of 5-fluorouracil and curcumin. Conclusions: Mesoporous silica nanoparticles are expected to be effective drug carriers that enhance the synergistic effects of 5-fluorouracil and curcumin on laryngeal cancer.

Current chemotherapy treatments lack great selectivity towards tumoral cells, which leads to nonspecific drug distribution and subsequent side effects. In this regard, the use of nanoparticles able to encapsulate and release therapeutic agents has attracted growing attention. In this sense, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been widely employed as drug carriers owing to their exquisite physico-chemical properties. Because MSNs present a surface full of silanol groups, they can be easily functionalized to endow the nanoparticles with many different functionalities, including the introduction of moieties with affinity for the cell membrane or relevant compartments within the cell, thus increasing the efficacy of the treatments. This review manuscript will provide the state-of-the-art on MSNs functionalized for targeting subcellular compartments, focusing on the cytoplasm, the mitochondria, and the nucleus.
