| Abstract | Formation of the vertebrate brain ventricles requires both production of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and its retention in the ventricles. The Na,K-ATPase is required for brain ventricle development, and we show here that this protein complex impacts three associated processes. The first requires both the alpha subunit (Atp1a1) and the regulatory subunit, Fxyd1, and leads to formation of a cohesive neuroepithelium, with continuous apical junctions. The second process leads to modulation of neuroepithelial permeability, and requires Atp1a1, which increases permeability with partial loss of function and decreases it with overexpression. In contrast, fxyd1 overexpression does not alter neuroepithelial permeability, suggesting that its activity is limited to neuroepithelium formation. RhoA regulates both neuroepithelium formation and permeability, downstream of the Na,K-ATPase. A third process, likely to be CSF production, is RhoA-independent, requiring Atp1a1, but not Fxyd1. Consistent with a role for Na,K-ATPase pump function, the inhibitor ouabain prevents neuroepithelium formation, while intracellular Na+ increases after Atp1a1 and Fxyd1 loss of function. These data include the first reported role for Fxyd1 in the developing brain, and indicate that the Na,K-ATPase regulates three aspects of brain ventricle development essential for normal function - formation of a cohesive neuroepithelium, restriction of neuroepithelial permeability, and production of CSF. |

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.
