| Abstract | Differences in the 30-day survival of Histoplasma capsulatum after intravenous injection indicated that the A/J strain of inbred mouse was more resistant to experimental infection than was the C57BL/6 strain. CFU from the spleens of infected animals increased during the first week after injection but gradually declined over the next 3 weeks. The CFU per gram of tissue in the C57BL/6 animals were 10- to 100-fold higher than were those in the A/J mice during the time between 7 and 28 days after infection. The units of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in supernatants of spleen cells stimulated with heat-killed yeast cells of H. capsulatum reached a peak at the time of the largest number of CFU per gram of tissue. The titers of IFN-gamma at days 3 to 5 were higher in the A/J mice than they were in the C57BL/6 mice, but from days 7 to 28, the titers of IFN-gamma were not correlated with the more efficient clearance of the fungus from the spleens of A/J mice. The L3T4+ spleen cells were shown to be active IFN-gamma producers. Treatment of Histoplasma-infected mice with anti-IFN-gamma antibody resulted in much larger tissue burdens of the fungus in the lungs and spleens of treated animals than in untreated animals. There was no marked difference in the result of treatment with anti-IFN-gamma antibody between A/J and C57BL/6 mice. Treatment of Histoplasma-infected mice with recombinant murine IFN-gamma did not alter the course of infection in either inbred strain of mouse. |

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.
