| Abstract | These studies have compared the ability of NIH 3T3 cells containing different ras oncogenes to form tumor nodules in the lungs of nude mice after tail vein injection. The genes studied include the normal cellular and bladder tumor ras genes, recombinant viral/cellular ras genes, recombinant yeast/mammalian ras genes, and a constructed gene with yeast RAS1 sequences significantly modified by deletions and an oncogenic mutation. The results show that NIH 3T3 cells containing these genes readily form lethal tumor nodules in the lungs of nude mice after tail vein injection. No control NIH 3T3 cells formed lung tumors within 66 days. Although there were some quantitative differences in the potencies of the various lines, the striking conclusion is that NIH 3T3 cells transformed by either normal or activated mammalian ras genes form approximately equal numbers of experimental lung metastases. In addition, cells transformed by a significantly modified yeast RAS1 gene containing a purposefully introduced oncogenic mutation were also equally active in this assay. The amount of p21 (the 21-kDa protein encoded by ras), as measured by immunoprecipitation, was approximately the same in the parent lines before injection as in the tumors recovered after injection. This result indicates that there is no selection for metastatic sublines containing larger quantities of p21. Transfection of EJ bladder tumor ras DNA into NIH 3T3 cells followed by injection 3 days later into the tail veins of nude/beige mice indicated that the EJ ras gene can confer a metastatic phenotype within 3.5 cell generations without selection or clonal growth in vitro. Thus, the biochemical changes initiated after introduction of the c-Ha-ras gene into NIH 3T3 cells result in the almost immediate acquisition of phenotypes necessary for experimental metastasis. |

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.
