| Abstract | Bryostatin-1 (bryo-1), a non-phorbol ester, is known to sensitize mammalian cells against certain chemotherapeutic drugs. We assessed its ability to modify radiation response of mammalian cells using Chinese hamster fibroblasts AA8 cells and human malignant glioma BMG-1 cells. In the malignant glioma BMG-1 cell line, bryo-1 pre-treatment significantly enhanced radiation-induced growth inhibition and cytogenetic damage, and further reduced the clonogenic cell survival as compared to cells irradiated at the clinically relevant dose of 2 Gy. PKCδ expression increased significantly when bryo-1 pre-treated BMG-1 glioma cells were irradiated at 2 Gy and induced prolonged ERK-1/2 activation associated with p21 overexpression. Silencing PKCδ resulted in inhibition of bryo-1-induced radiosensitization. In contrast, bryo-1 failed to alter radiosensitivity (cell survival; growth inhibition; cytogenetic damage) or activate ERK1/2 pathway in the AA8 fibroblasts despite PKCδ phosphorylation at its regulatory (Y155) domain, indicating alternate mechanisms in these non-malignant cells as compared to the glioma cells. This study suggests that bryo-1 may effectively enhance the radiosensitivity of malignant cells and warrants further in-depth investigations to evaluate its radiosensitizing potential in various cell types. |

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.
