| Abstract | Considering the pH dependent chemical stability of anticancer drug methotrexate (MTX), the present communication reports a new approach for intercalation of the same in a nanoceramic vehicle, magnesium aluminium layered double hydroxide (LDH), by ex situ anion exchange method at pH 7.00, using 0.3 M ammonium acetate solution for dissolution of the drug. This simple method ensures maximum stability of the drug at the above said pH, with no degradation byproduct (e.g., N10-methyl folic acid formed due to alkaline hydrolysis) under the given experimental conditions, compared to the similar approach, using 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution, reported in our earlier work. Importantly, the above method leads to an enhanced drug loading of 32.3 wt%, compared to our previous reports. The cumulative release profile of MTX from LDH–MTX formulation in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at pH 7.4 exhibited burst release initially which was taken care of by imparting a unique coating of poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide, PLGA) on the LDH–MTX nanostructure that reduces the toxicity due to local accumulation. Hence, the superiority of the above for use in cancer chemotherapy, over the conventional drug–polymer system has been established w.r.t the drug release profile and a possible hypothesis of the same has been suggested. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the MTX drug used in this study has been determined and the same has been used to estimate the time dependent (24, 48, 72 and 96 h) efficacy of the MTX loaded samples with/without polymer coating, on human colon tumour cells (HCT-116). |

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.
