| Abstract | The receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) can engage a diverse class of ligands and contribute to the immune and inflammatory response to infection and injury. It is known to be a pathogenic receptor in many inflammatory diseases, including ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injuries in several tissues; however, its role has not been investigated in IR injuries of the intestine to date. Mesenteric (or intestinal) IR leads to recruitment of inflammatory cells into intestinal interstitial spaces, which markedly disrupts intestinal mucosa. IR-induced mucosal injury is accompanied by the development of a local and systemic inflammatory response and remote organ injury, and results in high mortality in the clinic. We hypothesized that elimination of RAGE signaling using RAGE−/− mice would result in decreased local and remote organ injury and reduced inflammation in a mesenteric IR model, and thus be a target for therapeutic intervention. We found that RAGE ligands including HMGB-1 and C3a were elevated after mesenteric IR indicating the potential for enhanced RAGE activation in this model. However despite this, wild-type and RAGE−/− mice both displayed similar degrees of mesenteric injury, neutrophil infiltration, intestinal edema, cytokine generation, neutrophil mobilization, and remote organ injury after mesenteric IR. We, therefore, conclude that despite its role in other organ IR injuries, and the robust production of RAGE ligands after intestinal ischemia, RAGE itself does not directly influence tissue injury and the inflammatory response in mesenteric IR. |

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.
