| Abstract | 1. The effect of NMDA-receptor stimulation on phosphoinositide signalling in response to the metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist 1-aminocyclopentane-1S,3R-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD) has been examined in neonatal rat cerebral cortex slices. 2. Total [3H]-inositol phosphate ([3H]-InsPx) accumulation, in the presence of 5 mM LiCl, in [3H]-inositol pre-labelled slices was concentration-dependently increased by 1S,3R-ACPD (EC50 16.6 microM) and, at a maximally effective concentration, 1S,3R-ACPD (300 microM) increased [3H]-InsPx accumulation by 12.8 fold over basal values. 3. [3H]-InsPx accumulation stimulated by 1S,1R-ACPD was enhanced by low concentrations of NMDA (3-30 microM), but not by higher concentrations (> 30 microM). [3H]-InsPx accumulations stimulated by 1S,3R-ACPD in the absence or presence of 10 microM NMDA were linear with time, at least over the 15 min period examined; however, in the presence of 100 microM NMDA the initial enhancement of 1S,3R-ACPD-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis progressively decreased with time. 4. In the presence of a maximal enhancing concentration of NMDA (10 microM), the response to 1S,3R-ACPD (300 microM) was increased 1.9 fold and the EC50 for agonist-stimulated [3H]-InsPx accumulation decreased about 4 fold. The enhanced response to the metabotropic agonist was concentration-dependently inhibited by competitive and uncompetitive antagonists of NMDA-receptor activation. 5. 1S,3R-ACPD also stimulated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) mass accumulation with an initial peak response (5-6 fold over basal) at 15 s decaying to a smaller (2 fold), but persistent elevated accumulation (1-10 min).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) |

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.
