| Abstract | This study was aimed at developing a new active loading method to stably encapsulate staurosporine (STS), a water insoluble drug, into lipid-based nanoparticles (LNPs) for drug targeting to tumors.A limited amount of DMSO was included during the active loading process to prevent precipitation and facilitate the loading of insoluble STS into the aqueous core of a LNP. The drug loading kinetics under various conditions was studied and the STS-LNPs were characterized by size, drug-to-lipid ratio, drug release kinetics and in vitro potency. The antitumor efficacy of the STS-LNPs was compared with free STS in a mouse model.The drug loading efficiency reached 100% within 15 min of incubation at a drug-to-lipid ratio of 0.31 (mol) via an ammonium gradient. STS formed nano-aggregates inside the aqueous core of the LNPs and was stably retained upon storage and in the presence of serum. A 3-fold higher dose of the STS-LNPs could be tolerated by BALB/c mice compared with free STS, leading to nearly complete growth inhibition of a multidrug resistant breast tumor, while free STS only exhibited moderate activity.This simple and efficient drug loading method produced a stable LNP formulation for STS that was effective for cancer treatment. |

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.
