| Abstract | While the pathological events evoked by infection are commonly described, effective host responses to bacteria and their products should primarily be protective. Heat shock protein (Hsp) expression is upregulated by many stimuli and serves to maintain intracellular protein integrity. The ability of the prototypic superantigen, Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B (SEB) to induce Hsps was investigated with BALB/c mice and by in vitro addition to the murine small intestinal epithelial cell line MSIE. SEB-treated (5 or 100 μg intraperitoneally) mice revealed increased Hsp25 and Hsp72, but not Hsc73, in jejunal lymphocytes and epithelial cells. A similar Hsp response to SEB occurred in MSIE cells and was preceded by activation of the ERK1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases but not the SAPK/JNK pathway; pharmacological inhibition of ERK1/2, but not p38, significantly reduced SEB-induced Hsps. Moreover, SEB-treated MSIE cells were protected against oxidant-induced cytotoxicity (measured by 51Cr release) and F-actin depolymerization. Thus, SEB exposure results in a rapid induction of the Hsp25 and Hsp72 in intestinal epithelial cells, both directly and through lymphocyte activation, and we suggest that this event is important in protecting the gut from damage by Staphylococcus infection or in the reparatory process and may be a generalized response to lumen-derived bacterial toxins. |

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.
