| Abstract | The GDVII strain of Theiler’s virus is virulent. The DA strain is avirulent and can persist and initiate lesions of inflammatory demyelination in the CNS of susceptible strains of mice. Other, resistant strains of mice clear the infection. Replication of the GDVII and DA strains of Theiler’s virus and their genetic recombinants R2, R3 and R4 were compared in mixed glial cell cultures derived from the mouse CNS. Differences were observed in the early rate of viral production. These mapped to the P1 capsid region of the viral genome. Viruses with GDVII P1 sequences produced virus and spread more rapidly than viruses with DA P1 sequences. GDVII virus infected greater numbers of cells than DA virus. Both strains of virus rapidly replicated at least to the level of translation in astrocytes (GFAP+), macrophage/microglial cells (F4/80+), oligodendrocytes (O4+) and bipotential precursor (Aff2B5+) cells. Early in infection many Aff2B5+ and GFAP+ cells were infected and destroyed. In contrast, O4+ cells were relatively resistant to cell-death. The cultures survived and produced virus over 14 days of study, at which time all 4 cell-types were present in the culture but <1% of all the cells, the majority of which were O4+, expressed viral protein. Most of these infected O4+ cells retained a healthy morphology with extensive sheets of cytoplasm, suggesting that Theiler’s virus infection of mature oligodendrocytes was non-destructive. |

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.
