Abstract

Nanoscale ceramic particles, such as layered double hydroxides (LDHs), have been developed to deliver drugs or genes into biological cells. In this article, we describe the controlled-release properties of LDHs as drug delivery carriers, the formation of bio-LDH nanohybrids, their in vivo and in vitro cytotoxicity tests, and their potential as anticancer gene delivery carriers. Unstable biomolecules can be intercalated into LDHs, displacing the interlayer anions; the drug or gene's negative charge is thus shielded, enabling penetration into the cell. In the slightly acidic environment of the cell, ceramic nanoplatelets of ∼100 nm diameter dissolve, thus releasing the intercalates in a controlled manner.
