Since many years, these aspects foster a deep investigation on mesoporous nanoparticles, to design and fabricate biocompatible, smart and stimuli-responsive nanotools for controlled drug- or gene-delivery, theranostics applications, in particular for cancer therapy, and tissue engineering. This Book is thus dedicated to the most recent advances in the field, collecting research papers and reviews. It spans from the synthesis and characterization of the mesoporous material, especially those made of silica, silicon and bioactive glasses, to their functionalization with smart gate-keepers, reporter molecules or targeting ligands, up to their in-vitro applications in the nanomedicine field.Technology: general issuesbicsscpolyurethaneinjectable hydrogelsion/drug deliverymesoporous bioactive glassestissue regenerationmesoporous silicatherapeutic biomoleculesproteinspeptidesnucleic acidsglycansnanoporous silicongold nanoparticlesdrug deliverycancer cellstheranosticsmesoporous silica nanoparticlescore-shellsurface functionalizationcell targetingsize-dependent deliveryantitumoral microRNA (miRNA)confocal microscopytumor targetingstimuli responsivemultimodal decorationstargeted and controlled cargo releasecancer therapy and diagnosisalginate-poloxamer copolymersilk fibroindual network hydrogelmesoporous bioactive glassinsulin-like growth factor-1electrostatic gatingnanofluidic diffusioncontrolled drug releasesilicon membranesmart drug deliverythree-dimensional porous scaffoldselectron beam meltingselective laser sinteringstereolithographyelectrospinningtwo-photon polymerizationosteogenesisantibioticsanti-inflammatoryTechnology: general issuesCauda Valentinaedt1322891Canavese GiancarloedtCauda ValentinaothCanavese GiancarloothBOOK9910557107703321Mesoporous Materials for Drug Delivery and Theranostics3036763UNINA
