| Abstract | A sharp increase in shear stress followed by steady laminar shear stress (step flow) imposed on the surface of macrovascular endothelial cells (ECs) causes changes to the metabolism, gene expression, protein synthesis, as well as to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. In this study, we monitored the shear-induced cytosolic ROS production in human umbilical vein ECs (HUVECs) and in human dermal microvascular ECs (HMVECs) using the oxidant-sensitive fluorescent probe 2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA). HMVECs increased their ROS levels in response to shear stress in a time- and dose-dependent manner, when the shear stress was in the range of those encountered in postcapillary venules (2 or 4 dynes/cm/sup 2/). whereas HUVECs responded only to a higher shear stress tested (10 dynes/cm/sup 2/). It is known that many oxidants induce DCF-DA oxidation (hydra peroxides, ONOO/sup -/, NO/sub 2/ radical). In agreement to that, either an ecNOS inhibitor or a ONOO scavenger/SOD mimetic inhibited the shear-induced DCF signal. We are currently establishing a method to monitor lipid peroxidation (formation of lipid hydroperoxides) in the membranes of sheared ECs. Our plan is to investigate the contribution of cytosolic ROS to membranous lipid peroxidation and to intracellular shear-induced signaling. |

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.
