In this study, we developed a novel enzyme-responsive, multistage-targeted anticancer DDS based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), which possessed both CD44-targeting and mitochondrial-targeting properties.Materials and methods: Triphenylphosphine (TPP), a mitochondria-targeting compound, was grafted onto the surface of MSNs firstly. Then, Doxorubicin (Dox) was encapsulated into the pore of MSNs, followed by capping with tumor-targeting molecules hyaluronic acid (HA) through electrostatic interactions to form the final product consist of Dox loaded, TPP attached, HA capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN-DPH).Results: Our results suggested that MSN-DPH was preferentially taken up by cancer cells via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis. Moreover, MSN-DPH mainly accumulated in mitochondria owing to the mitochondrial-targeting ability of TPP. Degradation of HA by overexpressed HAase facilitated the release of Dox in cancer cells. Thus, MSN-DPH efficiently killed the cancer cells while exhibited much lower cytotoxicity to normal cells.Conclusion: This study demonstrates a promising multistage-targeted DDS for cancer chemotherapy.Keywords: mesoporous silica nanoparticles, drug delivery, enzyme-responsive, multistage-targeting, cancer therapy  Naz SWang MHan YHu BTeng LZhou JZhang HChen JDove Medical PressarticleMesoporous silica nanoparticlesdrug deliveryenzyme-responsivemultistage-targeting,cancer therapyMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2533-2542 (2019)
