<P>In this study, we report the use of a multifunctional magnetic core-shell nanoparticle (MCNP), composed of a highly magnetic zinc-doped iron oxide (ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB>) core nanoparticle and a biocompatible mesoporous silica (mSi) shell, for the simultaneous delivery of let-7a microRNA (miRNA) and anticancer drugs (e.g., doxorubicin) to overcome chemoresistance in breast cancer. Owing to the ability of let-7a to repress DNA repair mechanisms (e.g., BRCA1 and BRCA2) and downregulate drug efflux pumps (e.g., ABCG2), delivery of let-7a could sensitize chemoresistant breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) to subsequent doxorubicin chemotherapy both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, the multifunctionality of our MCNPs allows for the monitoring of in vivo delivery via magnetic resonance imaging. In short, we have developed a multifunctional MCNP-based therapeutic approach to provide an attractive method with which to enhance our ability not only to deliver combined miRNA therapeutics with small-molecule drugs in both selective and effective manner but also to sensitize cancer cells for the enhanced treatment via the combination of miRNA replacement therapy using a single nanoplatform.</P> [FIG OMISSION]</BR>

<P>The full realization of stem cell-based treatments for neurodegenerative diseases requires precise control and characterization of stem cell fate. Herein, we report a multifunctional magneto-plasmonic nanorod (NR)-based detection platform to address the limitations associated with the current destructive characterization methods of stem cell neurogenesis. Exosomes and their inner contents have been discovered to play critical roles in cell-cell interactions and intrinsic cellular regulations and have received wide attention as next-generation biomarkers. Moreover, exosomal microRNAs (miRNA) also offer an essential avenue for nondestructive molecular analyses of cell cytoplasm components. To this end, our developed nondestructive, selective, and sensitive detection platform has (i) an immunomagnetic active component for exosome isolation and (ii) a plasmonic/metal-enhanced fluorescence component for sensitive exosomal miRNA detection to characterize stem cell differentiation. In a proof-of-concept demonstration, our multifunctional magneto-plasmonic NR successfully detected the expression level of miRNA-124 and characterized neurogenesis of human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural stem cells in a nondestructive and efficient manner. Furthermore, we demonstrated the versatility and feasibility of our multifunctional magneto-plasmonic NRs by characterizing a heterogeneous population of neural cells in an <I>ex vivo</I> rodent model. Collectively, we believe our multifunctional magneto-plasmonic NR-based exosomal miRNA detection platform has a great potential to investigate the function of cell-cell interactions and intrinsic cellular regulators for controlling stem cell differentiation.</P> [FIG OMISSION]</BR>
