Abstract

Co-delivery of Doxorubicin and siRNAs by mesoporous silica nanoparticles into multidrug-resistance cancer cells with minimal premature release significantly enhances the efficacy of chemotherapy by conquering the nonpump resistance and possibly bypassing the efflux pump resistance (see image).
