| Abstract | In many cancer patients, the malignancy causes reduced hepatic drug clearance leading to potentially serious complications from the use of anticancer drugs. The mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are poorly understood. We aimed to identify tumor-associated inflammatory pathways that alter drug response and enhance chemotherapy-associated toxicity.We studied inflammatory pathways involved in extra-hepatic tumor mediated repression of CYP3A, a major hepatic drug metabolizing cytochrome P450 subfamily, using a murine Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm sarcoma model. Studies in IL-6 knockout mice determined the source of elevated IL-6 in tumor-bearing animals and monoclonal antibodies against IL-6 were used to intervene in this inflammatory pathway.Our studies confirm elevated plasma IL-6 levels and reveal activation of Jak/Stat and Mapk signalling pathways and acute phase proteins in livers of tumor-bearing mice. Circulating IL-6 was predominantly produced by the tumor xenograft, rather than being host derived. Anti IL-6 antibody intervention partially reversed tumor-mediated inflammation and Cyp3a gene repression.IL-6 is an important player in cancer-related repression of CYP3A-mediated drug metabolism and activation of the acute phase response. Targeting IL-6 in cancer patients may prove an effective approach to alleviating cancer-related phenomena, such as adverse drug-related outcomes commonly associated with cancer chemotherapy. |

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.
