Mesoporous silica-based nanoparticles are generally accepted as a potential platform for drug loading with a lot of advantages, except for their complex purification procedures and structures that are difficult to decompose. In this work, biocompatible hyperbranched polyglycerol is introduced to synthesize mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The materials possess good biocompatibility, controlled release, and biodegradability. They also show passive targeting capability through the enhanced permeability and retention effect and can be excreted from the biological system. The method avoids the needs to employ traditional surfactants and complicated purified procedures, which make these MSNs an efficient delivery system for cancer therapy.
