Poly-epsilon-lysine coated cubosomes show remarkable stability in serum solution, are nontoxic and, are readily internalized by HeLa cells. The poly-epsilon-lysine coating provides chemical handles for further bioconjugation of the cubosome surface. We also demonstrate that the initial release rate of a hydrophilic drug, Naproxen sodium, from the cubosomes is retarded with just a single layer of polymer. Interestingly, cubosomes loaded with Naproxen sodium, recently shown to have anticancer properties, cause more apoptosis in HeLa cells when compared to free unencapsulated drug.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;5.76&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chandra, Anil</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Deshpande, Sonal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shinde, Dhanraj B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pillai, Vijayamohanan K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Neetu</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mitigating the cytotoxicity of graphene quantum dots and enhancing their applications in bioimaging and drug delivery</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACS Macro Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER CHEMICAL SOC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1064-1068</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Despite the promising photophysical properties of fluorescent graphene quantum dots (GQDs), their cellular toxicity needs to be addressed before their full potential could be completely realized in biomedicine. A simple method for mitigating the toxicity of GQDs by embedding them in PEG matrix is reported here. The enhanced biocompatibility of polymer modified, P-GQDs, is attributed to reduced reactive oxygen species generation, as measured by an intracellular ROS assay. We also demonstrate the enhanced loading and efficient intracellular delivery of therapeutics by P-GQDs.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.11</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
