| Abstract | Activation of either muscarinic cholinergic or thrombin receptors increases phosphoinositide turnover, Ca2+ mobilization, and redistribution of protein kinase C and induces rapid transient increases in c-fos mRNA and c-jun mRNA in 1321N1 cells. To determine whether the increases in c-fos and c-jun mRNA induced by carbachol and thrombin are sufficient to stimulate AP-1-mediated transactivation, 1321N1 cells were transfected with a reporter carrying two copies of the tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate response element and the firefly luciferase gene. Thrombin was significantly more effective than carbachol at stimulating AP-1-mediated transactivation. To identify the factors underlying the difference in AP-1 activity induced by carbachol and thrombin, members of the fos and jun families which encode components of AP-1 were examined. Carbachol and thrombin have similar effects on expression of c-fos, fosB, fra-2, junB, and junD, both acutely and over a 24-h time course. However, whereas carbachol leads only to transient induction of c-jun (maximal at 0.5 h), thrombin induces a biphasic increase in c-jun mRNA--an initial peak at 0.5 h and a second, more-prolonged increase at 12 h. Thrombin but not carbachol also induces a late increase in fra-1 mRNA, which peaks at 12 h. The secondary increase in c-jun mRNA is associated with marked increases in c-Jun protein levels and AP-1 DNA-binding activity. The late induction of c-jun and fra-1 mRNA can be prevented by adding the antagonist hirudin 30 min after thrombin, which results in loss of thrombin-stimulated increases in c-Jun protein, AP-1 DNA-binding activity, and AP-1-mediated transactivation. These findings suggest that rapid and transient conduction of c-fos and c-jun mRNA is insufficient to induce prominent changes in gene transcription, while the sustained increase in c-jun mRNA and perhaps the late induction of fra-1 mRNA are required for generation of AP-1 DNA-binding activity and transactivation through AP-1. |

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.
