Self‐Assembled Multilayered Concentric Supraparticle Architecture

Supraparticles (SPs) with unique properties are emerging as versatile platforms for applications in catalysis, photonics, and medicine. However, the synthesis of novel SPs with complex internal structures remains a challenge. Self-Assembled Multilayered Supraparticles (SAMS) presented here are composed of concentric lamellar spherical structures made from metallic nanoparticles, formed from a synergistic three-way interaction phenomenon between gold nanoparticles, lipidoid, and gelatin, exhibiting interlayer spacing of 3.5 ± 0.2 nm within a self-limited 156.8 ± 56.6 nm diameter. The formation is critically influenced by both physical (including nanoparticle size, lipidoid chain length) and chemical factors (including elemental composition, nanoparticle cap, and organic material), which collectively modulate the surface chemistry and hydrophobicity, affecting interparticle interactions. SAMS can efficiently deliver labile payloads such as siRNA, achieving dose-dependent silencing in vivo, while also showing potential for complex payloads such as mRNA. This work not only advances the field of SP design by introducing a new structure and interaction phenomenon but also demonstrates its potential in nanomedicine.

Abstract

Supraparticles (SPs) with unique properties are emerging as versatile platforms for applications in catalysis, photonics, and medicine. However, the synthesis of novel SPs with complex internal structures remains a challenge. Self-Assembled Multilayered Supraparticles (SAMS) presented here are composed of concentric lamellar spherical structures made from metallic nanoparticles, formed from a synergistic three-way interaction phenomenon between gold nanoparticles, lipidoid, and gelatin, exhibiting interlayer spacing of 3.5 ± 0.2 nm within a self-limited 156.8 ± 56.6 nm diameter. The formation is critically influenced by both physical (including nanoparticle size, lipidoid chain length) and chemical factors (including elemental composition, nanoparticle cap, and organic material), which collectively modulate the surface chemistry and hydrophobicity, affecting interparticle interactions. SAMS can efficiently deliver labile payloads such as siRNA, achieving dose-dependent silencing in vivo, while also showing potential for complex payloads such as mRNA. This work not only advances the field of SP design by introducing a new structure and interaction phenomenon but also demonstrates its potential in nanomedicine.
