The characterization of nanomaterials and their influence and interactions on the biology of cells and tissues are still partially unknown. Multistage nanovectors based on mesoporous silicon have been extensively studied for drug delivery, thermal heating and improved diagnostic imaging. Here we analyzed the short and long-term changes occurring in human cells upon the internalization of mesoporous silicon nanovectors (MSV). Using qualitative and quantitative techniques as well as in vitro and in vivo biochemical, cellular and functional assays, we demonstrated that MSV did not cause any significant acute or chronic effects on cells and tissues. We analyzed in vitro cell toxicity and viability, the maintenance of cell phase cycling, and the architecture upon the internalization of MSV. In addition, we evaluated if MSV produced any pro-inflammatory response and studied its biocompatibility in vivo. We followed the biodistribution of MSV using longitudinal in vivo imaging and assessed organ accumulation using quantitative elemental and fluorescent techniques. Finally, a thorough pathological analysis of collected tissues demonstrated a mild transient systemic response in the liver that dissipated upon clearance of particles. In conclusion, with this study we propose that future endeavors aimed at understanding the toxicology of naked drug carriers should be designed to address their impact using in vitro and in vivo short and long-term evaluations of systemic response.
