| Abstract | The development and course of normally lethal parasitemias in mice inoculated intraperitoneally with erythrocytic stages of Plasmodium yoelii or Plasmodium berghei were markedly affected by treatment with the antilymphoid drug cyclosporin A (CS-A). When the first of four daily subcutaneous 25-mg/kg doses of CS-A was given at the time of parasite inoculation, patent infections failed to develop. If begun up to 5 days earlier, this same treatment regimen prolonged the prepatent period, attenuated parasitemia, and reduced mortality. In mice with patient infections, two consecutive daily 25-mg/kg doses of CS-A were sufficient to terminate parasitemias which, after several days, reappeared but were self-limiting. This pattern of apparent cure followed by transient recrudescence remained unaltered even when daily treatment with the same drug dose was continued for 3 weeks. Recrudescence was associated with the emergence of parasite populations that were relatively resistant to CS-A and, in the case of P. yoelii, of reduced virulence. In more limited experiments, CS-A was found to be active in vitro against erythrocytic stages of the human malarial parasite palsmodium falciparum. Depending on the concentration of drug in the culture medium, parasite growth was either prevented or inhibited. |

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.
