| Abstract | The interaction of multiple myeloma (MM) cells and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) induces profound changes in the bone marrow environment, influencing osteoclastogenesis and MM cell survival. Differences in receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) production in BMSCs derived from MM patients and control subjects and the apoptosis of BMSCs and MM cells in co-cultures of both cell types were examined. RANKL and OPG expressions were examined by ELISA and semiquantitative RT-PCR. Apoptosis of BMSCs after contact with RPMI8226 and U266 cells was measured by flow cytometry and the level of ALP activity by the spectrophotometric method. OPG production by BMSCs was significantly inhibited after direct contact with RPMI8226 cells. Production of soluble RANKL was enhanced and the increase was more significant in the BMSCs of the MM patients than in those of the controls. In co-cultures of BMSCs and MM cells, significant apoptosis was detected with a concomitant decrease in ALP activity. This apoptosis decreased significantly in the presence of RANK-Fc, an antagonist of RANKL. Disturbances in the RANKL/OPG system are more profound in the BMSCs of MM patients than in those of control subjects after direct contact with RPMI8226 cells. Moreover, direct contact with RPMI8226 and U266 cells induces apoptosis of BMSCs which is mediated by an overproduction of RANKL. |

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.
