| Abstract | Atopic dermatitis (AD) serves as a contraindication for the immunization of AD patients with a live vaccinia virus (VV) vaccine. The antiallergen IgE interacts with the Fc receptors (FcεRI) on dendritic cell (DC) membranes and with allergen molecules. The immunological events that lead to AD disease, the activation of the T-helper 2 (Th2) immune response, the synthesis of the cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and the inhibition of the T-helper 1 (Th1) damage the capacity of the host to develop anti-VV cytotoxic cells (CTLs). In the presence of Th2-derived cytokine IL-4 in the AD skin and the synthesis of VV proteins that interfere recruitment of DCs by host cytokines, the VV can cause a generalized infection.Conceptually, new VV recombinants may be needed for human immunization. Such VV recombinants should lack the genes that interfere with the host immune system and express a mutated human IL-4 cytokine gene that will prevent negative regulatory mechanisms. Such improved VV recombinants may be used to express genes from pathogenic viruses. |

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.
