| Abstract | Two isoforms of the substance P (SP) receptor, differing in the length of the cytoplasmic carboxyl-terminus by ≈8 kDa, have been detected previously in rat salivary glands and other tissues. The binding and functional properties of these two isoforms have been investigated using full-length (407 amino acids) and carboxyl-terminally truncated (324 amino acids) rat SP receptors transfected stably into Chinese hamster ovary cells. Both the full-length and the truncated receptor bound radiolabeled SP with a similar K d (≈0.1 nM). The average number of high affinity SP binding sites per cell was 1.0 × 105 and 0.3 × 105 for the full-length and the truncated SP receptor, respectively. In both cell lines, SP induced a rapid but transient increase in cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), which consisted of the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and the influx of extracellular Ca2+. Both components are dependent on phospholipase C activation. Although the full-length and the truncated receptor utilize the same calcium pathways, they differ in their EC50 values (0.28 nM for the full-length; 0.07 nM for the truncated). These differences in responsiveness may be related to the observed differences in receptor desensitization. The truncated receptor, in contrast to the full-length receptor, does not undergo rapid and long-lasting desensitization. Cells possessing the short isoform of the SP receptor would thus be expected to exhibit a prolonged responsiveness. |

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.
