| Abstract | Aim Nogo extracellular peptide 1-40 (NEP1-40), a Nogo-66 antagonistic peptide, is one of the potential candidates for therapeutic intervention after central nervous system injury. This study is focused on the generation of TAT-NEP1-40 fusion protein and its transducible effects and biological activity. Methods TAT-NEP1-40 fusion protein was expressed in vitro. Transducible effects of TAT-NEP1-40 were analyzed by using immunofluorescence staining or Western blot in vitro and in vivo. The biological activity of TAT-NEP1-40 was assessed by its effects against oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced PC12 cell damages. Results Our results showed that the TAT-NEP1-40 fusion protein was successfully expressed, purified, and refolded. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence staining confirmed the delivery of TAT-NEP1-40 protein into PC12 cells and rat brains. OGD caused cell apoptosis or death, decreased cell viability, increased lactate dehydrogenase release in medium and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, all of which were prevented by the TAT-NEP1-40 fusion proteins when added exogenously to culture medium. In addition, TAT-NEP1-40 promoted neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells exposed to OGD. Conclusion These results demonstrate that the TAT-NEP1-40 can be successfully generated and efficiently transduced into PC12 cells and rat brains. The TAT-NEP1-40 can protect PC12 cells against OGD and promote neurite outgrowth. This finding suggests that the transducible TAT-NEP1-40 fusion protein offers a possibility of the development of novel therapy for cerebral injuries via delivery of the biologically active TAT-NEP1-40 fusion protein into injured sites. |

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.
