| Abstract | Cisplatin (CDDP) resistance mechanisms were studied in a model of three germ cell tumour and three colon carcinoma cell lines representing intrinsically CDDP-sensitive and -resistant tumours respectively. The CDDP sensitivity of the cell lines mimicked the clinical situation. The glutathione levels of the cell lines correlated with CDDP concentrations inhibiting cell survival by 50% (IC50); total cellular sulphydryl content (TSH) was unexpectedly inversely correlated with IC50. IC50 correlated neither with glutathione S-transferase (GST) nor with GST pi expression, topoisomerase I or II activity. Immediately after 4 h incubation with CDDP, platinum (Pt) accumulation and Pt bound to DNA were not correlated, but after another 24 h drug-free culture, Pt binding to DNA in germ cell tumour but not in colon carcinoma cell lines correlated with IC50. With the exception of in vitro sensitivity and TSH, none of the parameters studied discriminated between the two groups of cell lines. Correction of CDDP sensitivity parameters for phenotypical differences did not influence statistical correlations. Analysis of variance revealed a correlation between IC50 and the combination of glutathione, GST activity and Pt bound to DNA. But at other CDDP cytotoxicity levels sensitivity was also correlated with Pt accumulation, topoisomerase II activity and TSH in various combinations. This model of intrinsic CDDP resistance showed that multiple parameters ought to be studied to explain CDDP resistance, but did not elucidate the cause of the unique sensitivity of germ cell carcinoma, although the unexpected values of TSH deserve further attention. |

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.
