• Herein we report the construction of a series of MSNs with adjustable specific surface area, size, and pore structure, depending on the different silicon monomers selected. The optimized MSN showed large specific surface area and appropriate size distribution for efficiently anchoring doxorubicin (DOX) through the imine linkage formed. Based on the remarkable features of the unique MSN, a novel MSN-based drug delivery system was prepared through the introduction of polydopamine/manganese oxide (PDA/MnO2) coating, which reduced the premature leakage of drugs in physiological environments, and yet facilitated drug release when destroyed by responding to endogenous glutathione (GSH) at the tumor sites. Notably, the transformation of MnO2 to Mn2+ resulted in the collapse of the PDA/MnO2 coating, which facilitated drug release and therefore indicated the controlled release feature. It was demonstrated that the drug-loaded MSN-based drug delivery system delivered drugs into cancer cells and showed effective inhibition against cancer cell growth. [Display omitted] Rapid progress has been made for mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) in recent years; however, efforts to fabricate MSN with adjustable size have been met with limited advancement in drug delivery, especially for the synthesis of MSN with adjustable size in the range of 150–300 nm. Herein we report the construction of a series of MSNs with adjustable specific surface area, size, and pore structure, depending on the different silicon monomers selected. The optimized MSN showed large specific surface area and appropriate size distribution for efficiently anchoring doxorubicin (DOX) through the imine linkage formed. Based on the remarkable features of the unique MSN, a novel MSN-based drug delivery system was prepared through the introduction of polydopamine/manganese oxide (PDA/MnO2) coating, which reduced the premature leakage of drugs in physiological environments, and yet facilitated drug release when destroyed by responding to endogenous glutathione (GSH) at the tumor sites. Notably, the transformation of MnO2 to Mn2+ resulted in the collapse of the PDA/MnO2 coating, which facilitated drug release and therefore indicated the controlled release feature. It was demonstrated that the drug-loaded MSN-based drug delivery system delivered drugs into cancer cells and showed effective inhibition against cancer cell growth. These results suggested that the emergence of MSN with adjustable size can expand the application of MSN in drug delivery.
