| Abstract | Synthetic studies of lipid A and LPS partial structures have been performed to investigate the relationship between structures and functions of LPS. Recent studies have suggested several pathological implications of LPS from parasitic bacteria due to its influence on the host immune responses. To address this issue, we established an efficient synthetic strategy that is widely applicable to the synthesis of various lipid As by using a key disaccharide intermediate with selectively cleavable protecting groups. Porphyromonas gingivalis and Helicobacter pylori lipid As were synthesized and their biological activities were evaluated. All synthetic lipid As did not induce strong inflammatory responses: some are very weak cytokine inducers and others are antagonistic in IL-6 and IL-8 induction with E. coli LPS. On the other hand, P. gingivalis lipid As showed potent IL-18 inducing activity. Since IL-18 has been shown to correlate with chronic inflammation, P. gingivalis LPS may be implicated in the chronic inflammatory responses. |

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.
