In this sense, nanomedicine could address some of the most important limitations of conventional medicine. In general, nanomedicine include three major objectives: (1) trap and protect a great amount of therapeutic agents; (2) carry them to the specific site of disease avoiding any leakage; and (3) release on-demand high local concentrations of therapeutic agents. This feature article will make special emphasis on mesoporous silica nanoparticles that release their therapeutic cargo in response to ultrasound.engjournal articlehttp://www.rsc.org/journals-books-databases/about-journals/chemcomm/http://www.ucm.es/valletregigroupopen access546615.4666MaterialesQuímica inorgánica (Farmacia)3312 Tecnología de Materiales
