| Abstract | Mutants of mammalian reoviruses, enteric double-stranded-RNA-containing viruses that spread systemically after primary replication in intestinal tissue, have been extensively studied as models of viral pathogenesis. While reovirus serotype 3 strain Dearing (T3D) causes acute encephalitis in newborn mice, adult severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice develop chronic infection with T3D, with some mice living more than 100 days after infection (B. L. Haller, M. L. Barkon, G. P. Vogler, and H. W. Virgin IV, J. Virol. 69:357-364, 1995). To determine whether organ-specific reovirus variants are selected during chronic infection, we characterized the pathogenetic properties of two variants of T3D isolated 87 days after intraperitoneal infection of adult SCID mice. A brain-specific variant (T3DvBr) (i) grew to a higher titer than T3D in SCID mouse brain (but not intestine) after intraperitoneal inoculation, (ii) killed adult SCID mice faster than T3D, and (iii) grew well in neonatal NIH Swiss [NIH(s)] mouse brain tissue after intramuscular but not peroral inoculation. An intestine-specific variant (T3DvInt) (i) grew to a higher titer than T3D in SCID mouse intestine (but not brain) after intraperitoneal inoculation, (ii) killed SCID mice with kinetics equivalent to those of T3D, (iii) was much less virulent than T3D in neonatal NIH(s) mice, (iv) grew better than T3D in intestines after intramuscular or peroral inoculation into neonatal NIH(s) mice, and (v) grew poorly in brain tissue of neonatal NIH(s) mice after intramuscular inoculation. During prolonged infection of SCID mice, organ-specific variants of T3D, which are more efficient than wild-type T3D at one specific stage in reovirus pathogenesis, are selected. |

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.
