Mesoporous silica nanoparticles with amino and thiol groups (MSNSN) were prepared and covalently modified with methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine to form 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX. In the presence of DTT, 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX gradually releases 6-MP. In rat plasma, 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX effectively inhibits the metabolic deactivation of 6-MP and MTX. 6-MP-MSNSN-MTX could be an agent for long-acting chemotherapy.
