| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to examine glucose- and metabolically modulation of insulin secretion by rAAV-mediated gene delivery in vitro and in vivo. A recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV) containing a furin-mutated human insulin gene, driven by the rat insulin I promoter, was used in this study. Glucose-responsive secretion of human insulin was determined by treating rAAV-transduced Huh7 human hepatoma cells with varying concentrations of glucose, with or without insulin secretagogues. Glucose- and metabolically modulated secretion of human insulin in the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice was assessed by intrahepatic administration of rAAV-polyethylenimine (PEI) complexes, followed by intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), with or without theophylline.Glucose- and metabolically controlled human insulin secretion was obtained in the rAAV-transduced Huh7 cells. Treatment of STZ-induced diabetic animals with rAAV–polyethylenimine (rAAV-PEI) complexes resulted in production of human insulin and amelioration of hyperglycemia. Co-administration of glucose and theophylline in these animals augmented the secretion of human insulin, demonstrating metabolic modulation of insulin secretion in vivo. Immunohistochemical examination of the liver sections of rAAV-treated mice confirmed the production of human insulin.Glucose- and metabolically controlled hepatic insulin gene therapy was obtained both in vitro and in vivo. |

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.
