| Abstract | It is established that experimental metastasis requires platelet activity. CD154 expressed on and released from activated platelets induces an inflammatory response in endothelial cells and monocytes, including tissue factor production. CD154 has also been shown to activate platelets in vitro and promote thrombus stability in vivo. These CD154 effects may be mediated, at least in part, by CD40 signaling on platelets and vascular endothelial cells. We have previously demonstrated prolonged bleeding and PFA-100 closure times in mice deficient for Cd154 or its receptor Cd40. In the present study, we hypothesized that Cd40 and Cd154 promote lung tumor formation in experimental metastasis in mice. We created mice doubly deficient in Cd40 and Cd154 (Dbl KO) and found them to be both fertile and viable. Injected tumor cells seeded poorly in mice deficient in Cd40 or Cd154, as well as Dbl KO, compared to wild-type mice. We sought to determine whether blood-borne Cd40 versus endothelial Cd40 contribute differentially to reduced experimental lung metastasis, as observed in Cd40 deficient mice. By bone marrow transplantation, we created mice deficient for Cd40 either in the blood compartment but not in the endothelium, or vice versa. We found that mice deficient in blood compartment Cd40 had fewer lung nodules compared to wild-type mice and mice deficient in endothelial Cd40. Our findings suggest an important contribution of the Cd40-Cd154 pathway to experimental lung metastasis. Furthermore, the data points to a selective role for peripheral blood cell Cd40 in this process. |

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.
