| Abstract | Nanoparticles based on dendrimers were explored as excellent candidates for nanoscale drug delivery system. In this study, the fluorescently labeled amphiphilic codendrimer PGC from PAMAM G4.0 and oligoethylene glycol dendron was utilized as a carrier to prepare honokiol-loaded nanoparticles (HK NPs) via an evaporation method augmented by ultrasonication with an optimized drug-loading content (∼60%, wt%). The release of HK NPs showed a sustained release manner and was completed within 120 h. The HK NPs presented higher cytotoxicity against 4T1 cells, and the cellular uptake mechanism was proven to be caveolae-mediated endocytosis and clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Importantly, the HK NPs resulted in a strong antitumor efficacy on the 4T1 breast tumor model in vivo, and no significant adverse effects were observed. In addition, in vivo studies also showed that the HK NPs possessed better tumor accumulation over HCPT injection. According to the higher drug-loading content, enhanced antitumor efficacy, and appropriate particle size, HK NPs were shown to be safe and efficient drug delivery systems and could have potential application in cancer chemotherapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
