| Abstract | Although the inducible heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is essential for maintaining intestinal homeostasis in colitis, it is translationally downregulated in inflamed colonic mucosa, paradoxically rendering the gut more susceptible to injury. We examined the basis for this process by analyzing the role of untranslated regions (UTR) of Hsp70 mRNA in inflammation-associated downregulation in vitro and in vivo. Using luciferase-reporter assays in young adult mouse intestinal epithelial cells, we determined that cytokine-induced translational inhibition of Hsp70 mRNA was mediated by the 3′UTR, but not 5′UTR. In vivo, dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) colitis was induced in wild-type (WT) and villin-promoter regulated “UTR-less” Hsp70 transgenic (TG) mice, the latter exhibiting intestinal epithelial-specific transgene expression. Progressive downregulation of colonic Hsp70 protein expression was observed in WT, but not in TG, mice with increasing severity of mucosal inflammation, confirming the essential role of the 3′UTR in mediating inflammation-associated downregulation of Hsp70. Hsp70 TG mice demonstrated significantly lower endoscopic and histological inflammation scores in DSS-induced colitis than WT. In conclusion, downregulation of Hsp70 expression in inflamed mucosa is mediated by translational inhibition requiring the 3′UTR, resulting in increased mucosal injury. By forcing intestinal epithelial-specific Hsp70 expression in vivo, the severity of experimentally induced colitis was significantly reduced. |

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.
