| Abstract | Analysis of the many, sometimes seemingly contradictory, reports on the partial suppression of malignancy in highly unstable rodent intraspecies and rodent--human hybrid cells emphasizes the limitations of this approach to the analysis of the basic nature of malignancy, especially in naturally occurring human cancers. During the past 5 years, Stanbridge and then Klinger reported complete suppression, not elimination, of malignancy [defined as capacity to produce progressively growing tumors in athymic (nude) mice] in stable hybrids of different human cancer cells with normal human fibroblasts or with differentiating epithelial keratinocytes and, importantly, also in stable hybrids of two parental cancers of different somatic cell origin. The nontumorigenic human hybrid cells are not rejected by some nonthymic immune mechanism of nude mice and survive in vascularized foci; the initial multiplication of these cells is stopped by some unknown proliferation controlling substance(s) to which their malignant parent(s) do not respond. The heritable properties of infinite multiplication in vitro, loss of contact inhibition, etc. remained in the nontumorigenic hybrids but, remarkably, the in vitro production of alpha human choriogonadotropin by HeLa cells was suppressed along with tumorigenicity and reappeared in the tumorigenic revertants. If it is assumed that human cancers of different somatic cell origin are caused by a loss of different specific regulatory genes, as the most recent data reviewed here suggest, the challenge is to determine in molecular terms what those missing genes are, how they function, and whether it may be possible to restore to the cancer cells what they have lost. |

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.
