ABSTRACT
Berberine is an anticancer medication that generates side effects due to its hydrophobicity and low cellular promiscuity as well as high dose requirement. Thus, have to prepare PEGylated dendrimer conjugates which increases the targeting and release of chemotherapeutic drugs at the tumor site although falling the adverse side effects. The circulation time of drug is enhanced by PEGylation. It is the covalent attachment of PEG to therapeutic protein or any molecule. PEGylated berberine dendrimer was prepared by biotinylation cross linking method and characterized by particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, in vitro release and stability study. The Structure validation of berberine before and after grafting was confirmed by FTIR and NMR spectroscopy. Further prepared PEGylated complex were proceeded for the cellular uptake study in AMJ-13, and BT-20 cells line by fluorescent microscopy study and MTT assay cytotoxicity study in MCF-7 cell line. The prepared PEGylated formulation showed nanometric size, desired zeta potential, and 69.56 ± 23% entrapment efficiency. The prepared PEGylated particle showed 70.23% release at 72 h with good stability at 90 days. The cellular uptake of formulation was highly appreciable which is clearly observed in AMJ-13 and BT-20 cells line. In comparison to pure drug, developed formulation has 10.8 M high efficiency for breast cancer cell line. PEGylation is easy and reasonable way, as it requires lesser time and is proved to be superior technique for treatment of cancer.
