| Abstract | To cope with the frequent exposure to carcinogenic UV B (UVB) wavelengths found in sunlight, keratinocytes have acquired extensive protective measures to handle UVB-induced DNA damage. Recent in vitro and epidemiological data suggest one these protective mechanisms is dependent on the functional status of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signaling network in keratinocytes. During the normal UVB response, ligand-activated IGF-1Rs protect keratinocytes from UVB-induced apoptosis; however, as a consequence, these keratinocytes fail to proliferate. This adaptive response of keratinocytes to UVB exposure maintains the protective barrier function of the epidermis while ensuring that UVB-damaged keratinocytes do not replicate DNA mutations. In contrast, when keratinocytes are exposed to UVB in the absence of IGF-1R activation, the keratinocytes are more sensitive to UVB-induced apoptosis, but the surviving keratinocytes retain the capacity to proliferate. This aberrant UVB response represents flawed protection from UVB damage potentially resulting in the malignant transformation of keratinocytes. Using normal human keratinocytes grown in vitro, we have demonstrated that activation of the IGF-1R promotes the premature senescence of UVB-irradiated keratinocytes through increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and by maintaining the expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 CDKN1A . Furthermore, IGF-1R–dependent UVB-induced premature senescence required the phosphorylation of p53 serine 46. These data suggest one mechanism of keratinocyte resistance to UVB-induced carcinogenesis involves the induction of IGF-1R–dependent premature senescence. |

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.
