Resumen:
|
The discovery and control of the biological roles mediated by nucleic acids have turned them into a powerful tool for the development of advanced biotechnological materials. Much is the importance of those gene-keeping biomacromolecules that even nanomaterials have succumbed to the claimed benefits of DNA and RNA. Currently, there could be found in the literature a practically intractable number of examples which report the use in combination of nanoparticles with nucleic acids, which demands boundedness. Following this premise, this revision will only cover the most recent and powerful strategies developed to exploit the possibilities of nucleic acids as biotechnological materials when in combination with mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The extensive research done on nucleic acids has significantly incremented the technological possibilities for those biomacromolecules, which could be employed in many different applications; where substrate or sequence recognition or modulation of biological pathways due to its coding role in living cells are the most promising. In the present revision, the chosen counterpart, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, also with unique properties, became a reference material for drug delivery and biomedical applications due to their high biocompatibility and porous structure suitable for hosting and delivering small molecules. Although most of revisions deal with significant advances in the use of nucleic acid and mesoporous silica nanoparticles in biotechnological applications, a rationale classification of those new generation hybrid materials is still uncovered. Along this review there will be covered promising strategies for living cell and biological sensors, DNA-based molecular gates with targeting, transfection or silencing properties which could provide a significant advance of current nanomedicine.
