The principal eigenvector of a graph $G$ is the unique non-zero unit vector corresponding to the spectral radius $\lambda_1$ of $G$. In this paper, we present some bounds on the minimal entry $x_{\min }$ as well as on the ratio $\frac{x_{\max }}{x_{\min }}$ of the maximal entry to the minimal entry of the principal eigenvector $X$ of a graph $G$ in terms of the spectral radius $\lambda_1$, minimum vertex cover number, maximum vertex degree, minimum vertex degree, number of edges and sum of the degrees of vertices contained in a maximum matching of $G$.
