| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to clarify the localization and function of the ATP-binding cassette transporter G2 (ABCG2; BCRP/MXR/ABCP) in retinal capillary endothelial cells, which form the inner blood–retinal barrier, as an efflux transport system.The expression was determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. The localization was identified by immunostaining. The transport function of ABCG2 was measured by flow cytometry.Western blotting indicated that ABCG2 was expressed as a glycosylated disulfide-linked complex in the mouse retina and in peripheral tissues, including liver, kidney, and small intestine. Double immunolabeling of ABCG2 and glucose transporter 1 suggested that ABCG2 was localized on the luminal membrane of mouse retinal capillary endothelial cells. ABCG2 mRNA and protein were found to be expressed in a conditionally immortalized rat retinal capillary endothelial cell line, TR-iBRB, and rat retina. Treatment with Ko143, an ABCG2 inhibitor, restored the accumulation of pheophorbide a and protoporphyrin IX in TR-iBRB cells.ABCG2 is expressed on the luminal membrane of retinal capillary endothelial cells, where ABCG2 acts as the efflux transporter for photosensitive toxins such as pheophorbide a and protoporphyrin IX. ABCG2 could play an important role at the inner blood–retinal barrier in restricting the distribution of phototoxins and xenobiotics in retinal tissue. |

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.
