3 After grafted with Cys, the BET surface area, pore volume and pore size of MIL-11 exhibited a slight decrease. The Cys moleculars are assumed to be present mainly at the center of mesopore cages, leading to a slight decrease of the pore sizes, as terminal water molecules to produce Fe(III) CUSs are directed towards the center of the cages. Therefore, these results indicated that loaded in the whole phase of MIL-11, including external surface and internal surface.

4 The Elemental Analysis was performed by standard protocols employing digestion in HNO 3 /HCl/H 2 O 2 and the inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) was used to measure Selenium and Ruthenium content.

5 The particle-sirna complexes were incubated at ph values of 7.4, and the amount of sirna released into the supernatant was determined by measuring the absorbance at 2 nm at different time points. As shown in the Figure S3, an initial burst was observed from each type of nano-sirna complexes in the first few hours, followed by a sustained release. After 12 h incubation, the cumulative sirna release from the Se@MIL-11-siRNA and Ru@MIL-11-siRNA complexes reached to 62.4% and 78.9%, respectively.
