Journal ArticleDOI

Stability and Aggregation of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles in Natural Aqueous Matrices

TL;DR: The electrophoretic mobility of the particles in a given aqueous media was dominated by the presence of natural organic matter (NOM) and ionic strength, and independent of pH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineered Design of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles to Deliver Doxorubicin and P-Glycoprotein siRNA to Overcome Drug Resistance in a Cancer Cell Line

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNP) can be functionalized to effectively deliver a chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (Dox) as well as Pgp siRNA to a drug-resistant cancer cell line (KB-V1 cells) to accomplish cell killing in an additive or synergistic fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of Metal Oxide Nanoparticle Band Gap To Develop a Predictive Paradigm for Oxidative Stress and Acute Pulmonary Inflammation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that it is possible to predict the toxicity of a large series of MOx nanoparticles in the lung premised on semiconductor properties and an integrated in vitro/in vivo hazard ranking model premisedon oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Codelivery of an Optimal Drug/siRNA Combination Using Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles To Overcome Drug Resistance in Breast Cancer in Vitro and in Vivo

TL;DR: Proof-of-principle testing of the use of a dual drug/siRNA nanocarrier to overcome Dox resistance in a xenograft is provided and the first detailed analysis of the impact of heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment on the efficacy of siRNA delivery in vivo is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanomaterial toxicity testing in the 21st century: use of a predictive toxicological approach and high-throughput screening.

TL;DR: The major injury paradigms that have emerged based on specific ENM properties are discussed, as well as describing the safer design of ZnO nanoparticles based on characterization of dissolution chemistry as a major predictor of toxicity.
