| Abstract | 16-Hydroxy-cleroda-3,13-dien-16,15-olide (HCD) which is extracted from a medicinal plant, Polyalthia longifolia, was shown to exhibit anticancer activity through apoptosis and FAK inhibition in our previous study. To improve its solubility and efficacy, a novel HCD delivery system using copper-substituted mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) was designed as a delivery vehicle, and the outer surfaces of MSNs were further coated with enteric polymers to prevent the drug from leaching in the stomach acid. All the data regarding synthesis and physical characterization, including Zeta potential, FT-IR spectra, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms (BET), drug loading, powder X-ray diffraction, Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were well characterized. The non-coated MSN-HCD exposed to acidic pH (1.2) showed a rapid degradation of the drug, whereas the enteric-coated samples presented a sustained release profile in the gastrointestinal pHs. Cell cytotoxicity was further confirmed by the MTT-C6 Glioma cell line, in vitro. When compared with the control and pure HCD, the MSN-HCD revealed a potential anti-proliferation effect via the synergistic effect of the drug and the MSN vehicle. Additionally, this MSN-HCD had the effect of increasing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and altered the Mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) in C6 cell line. The in vivo anti-tumor efficacy of enteric-coated MSN-HCD was evaluated by C6 Glioma bearing xenograft nude mice, and enteric-coated MSN-HCD clearly exhibited the greatest anti-glioma activity, as compared to the pure HCD and the untreated control. In terms of the effective treatment of brain glioma, this study provides conclusive evidence of the successful development of the anti-cancer agent HCD conjugated with enteric-coated MSN as a delivery control mechanism with enhanced dissolution characteristics. |

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.
