Direct Transfer of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles between Macrophages and Cancer Cells

Macrophages line the walls of microvasculature, extending processes into the blood flow to capture foreign invaders, including nano-scale materials. Using mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as a model nano-scale system, we show the interplay between macrophages and MSNs from initial uptake to in...
