| Abstract | Intestinal mucosa represents an important portal of entry of HIV and a site of virus reservoir and active replication. Recently, in HIV patients, an early depletion of intestinal lamina propria T lymphocytes (LPT) has been described. HIV-1 gp120 has been demonstrated to promote apoptosis in noninfected isolated peripheral blood T cells, therefore we investigated whether gp120 modulates apoptosis of normal human intestinal lamina propria T cells. Purified T cells were obtained by immunomagnetic negative selection from human lamina propria mononuclear cells isolated from surgical specimens by enzymatic procedure. Cells were incubated with or without recombinant gp120 (10 μg/ml) and cultured either in the absence of any stimulus or in the presence of plate-bound anti-CD3 Ab (OKT3) or soluble anti-CD2 Ab (T11$_{2}$ + T11$_{3}$). Apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometric analysis after propidium iodide staining. We demonstrated that preincubation of normal LPT cells with HIV-1 gp120 accelerates the apoptosis observed during CD2-pathway stimulation of LPT cells. This process is mediated by Fas/Fas ligand interaction and related to an increased induction of Fas ligand mRNA by gp120. Therefore HIV-1 gp120 could contribute to the depletion of noninfected LPT cells inducing a premature cell death. |

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.
