| Abstract | Hemophilia A is one of the major inherited bleeding disorders caused by a deficiency or abnormality in coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). Hemophiliacs have been treated with whole plasma or purified FVIII concentrates. The risk of transmitting blood-borne viruses and the cost of highly purified FVIII are the major factors that restrict prophylaxis in hemophilia therapy. One of the challenges created by the biotechnology revolution is the development of methods for the economical production of highly purified proteins in large scales. Recent developments indicate that manipulating milk composition using transgenesis has focused mainly on the mammary gland as a bioreactor to produce pharmaceuticals. In the present study, a hybrid gene containing bovine α-lactalbumin and human FVIII cDNA was constructed for microinjection into the pronuclei of newly fertilized mouse eggs. The αLA-hFVIII hybrid gene was confirmed to be successfully integrated and stably germ-line transmitted in 12 (seven females/five males) lines. Western-blot analysis of milk samples obtained from eight of the transgenic founders and F1 offspring indicated that the recombinant hFVIII was secreted into the milk of the transgenic mice. The concentrations of rFVIII ranged from 7.0 to 50.2 μg/ml, over 35–200-fold higher than that in normal human plasma. Up to 13.4 U/ml of rFVIII was detected in an assay in which rFVIII restored normal clotting activity to FVIII-deficient human plasma. |

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.
