| Abstract | The sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) agonist FTY720 prolongs the survival of organ allograft and attenuates autoimmune-mediated injury in experimental models. Most cases of glomerulonephritis (GN) in human appear to be immunologically initiated. In this study, we evaluated the potential therapeutic role of FTY720 in GN via a mouse anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) model. Mice were immunized with rabbit IgG in complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) followed by an intravenous injection of a rabbit anti-mouse GBM serum. Disease and immune responses were assessed on day 14. Mice were treated with FTY720 (0.3 or 3 mg/kg) and prednisone (10 mg/kg) from days 0 to 14. The S1P modulator reduced proteinuria, serum creatinine, crescent formation and serum IgG level. The expressions of splenic S1P receptor and renal Th-1 cytokine were also inhibited at the transcription stage. Treatment with FTY720 increased splenocyte production of protective Th2 cytokine IL-4 and promoted the apoptosis of splenic CD4+ T cells in the animal models, which suggests that FTY720 played a protective role at the induction stage of GN by inhibiting mRNA expressions of splenic S1P receptor 1, S1P receptor 2, and S1P receptor 5. |

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.
