| Abstract | With the development of Au nanorods for a number of biomedical applications, understanding their cellular responses has become increasingly important. In this study, we systematically evaluated the cellular uptake behaviour and cytotoxicity of Au nanorods with various surface coatings, including organic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS), and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), and inorganic mesoporous silica (mSiO2), dense silica (dSiO2), and titanium dioxide (TiO2). The cellular behaviour of Au nanorods was found to be highly dependent on both the surface coating and the cell type. CTAB-, PSS-, and mSiO2-coated Au nanorods exhibit notable cytotoxicity, while PEG-, dSiO2-, and TiO2-coated Au nanorods do not induce cell injury. Optical imaging studies indicated that the cell type plays a preferential role in Au nanorod cellular uptake. Higher cellular uptake of Au nanorods was seen in U-87 MG, PC-3, MDA-MB-231, and RAW 264.7 cells, as opposed to HepG2 and HT-29 cells. In addition, Au nanorod cellular uptake is also highly affected by serum protein binding to the surface coating. mSiO2-, dSiO2-, and TiO2-coated Au nanorods show significantly higher cellular uptake than PSS- and PEG-coated ones, which results in a better photothermal ablation effect for Au nanorods with the inorganic surface coatings. Our study provides valuable insights into the effects of the surface modification on the biocompatibility, cellular uptake, as well as biomedical functions of Au nanorods. |

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.
