Osteoporosis is majorly caused by an imbalance between osteoclastic and osteogenic niches. Despite the development of nationally recognized first-line anti-osteoporosis drugs, including alendronate (AL), their low bioavailability, poor uptake rate, and dose-related side effects present significant challenges in treatment. This calls for an urgent need for more effective bone-affinity drug delivery systems. In this study, we produced hybrid structures with bioactive components and stable fluffy topological morphology by cross-linking calcium and phosphorus precursors based on mesoporous silica to fabricate nanoadjuvants for AL delivery. The subsequent grafting of -PEG-DAsp8 ensured superior biocompatibility and bone targeting capacity. RNA sequencing revealed that these fluffy nanoadjuvants effectively activated adhesion pathways through CARD11 and CD34 molecular mechanisms, hence promoting cellular uptake and intracellular delivery of AL. Experiments showed that small-dose AL nanoadjuvants effectively suppress osteoclast formation and potentially promote osteogenesis. In vivo results restored the balance between osteogenic and osteoclastic niches against osteoporosis as well as the consequent significant recovery of bone mass. Therefore, this study constructed a drug nanoadjuvant with peculiar topological structures and high bone targeting capacities, efficient intracellular drug delivery as well as bone bioactivity. This provides a novel perspective on drug delivery for osteoporosis and treatment strategies for other bone diseases.
