| Abstract | Cultured rabbit and bovine aortic endothelial cells generated chemotactic activity for mouse resident peritoneal macrophages, demonstrable in the conditioned medium. This chemotactic activity was heat stable and was not extracted into chloroform/methanol. It was inhibited by addition of endothelial cell-modified low density lipoprotein (EC-modified LDL), a form of LDL shown previously to contain peroxidized lipids, increased lysophosphatidylcholine, and partially degraded apoprotein B. The chemotactic activity was also inhibited by LDL previously oxidized in the absence of cells with 5 microM Cu2+. Inhibitory activity was present in the lipid extract of EC-modified LDL but not in that of native LDL, presumably representing peroxidized lipid components. EC-modified LDL also inhibited the chemotactic activity of zymosan-activated serum. Because EC-modified LDL is taken up in part by way of the acetyl-LDL receptor, the effects of acetyl-LDL were tested. Rather than inhibiting chemotaxis, acetyl LDL showed intrinsic positive chemotactic activity as did also fucoidin and polyinosinic acid, both of which also interact with the acetyl-LDL receptor. These studies suggest mechanisms by which macrophages may be recruited into the subendothelial space by endothelial cell-derived chemotactic factors or by natural polyanions structurally related to fucoidin or polyinosinic acid and then become "trapped" there because of the inhibitory effects of peroxidized lipid components in modified forms of LDL. |

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.
