| Abstract | The mechanisms by which nerve growth factor (NGF) increases the level of low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP1) are not known. Administration of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors modulates several of the neurotrophic actions of NGF, including TrkA signalling pathway activation, increases in gene expression and neurite outgrowth. The present study investigated whether NGF regulates the transcription of LRP1 as well as the role of NO and the individual TrkA signalling pathways in this action of NGF. PC12 cells were transfected with luciferase reporter constructs containing various sized fragments of the LRP1 promoter and treated with NGF (50 ng/mL) to establish whether NGF altered LRP transcription. NGF significantly increased luciferase activity in all LRP1 promoter construct-transfected cells with the NGF-responsive region of the promoter identified to be present in the first 1000 bp. The non-selective NOS inhibitor Nω-nitro-l-arginine methylester (l-NAME; 20 mM) had no effect on the NGF-mediated increase in luciferase activity, while the inducible NOS selective inhibitor s-methylisothiourea (S-MIU; 2 mM) attenuated the NGF-induced activation of the LRP1 promoter. Pretreatment of PC12 cells with 10 μM bisindolylmaleimide 1 (BIS-1) prevented the NGF-mediated increase in LRP1 promoter activation while 50 μM U0126 partially inhibited this response. In combination with S-MIU, all of the TrkA signalling pathway inhibitors blocked the ability of NGF to increase LRP1 transcription. These data suggest the NGF-mediated increase in LRP1 levels occurs, at least in part, at the level of transcription and that NO and the TrkA signalling pathways cooperate in the modulation of LRP1 transcription. |

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.
