| Abstract | The ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to preserve cancer cells potentially constitutes the adverse effect of MSC-based cell therapy in the context of hematologic malignancy. In an effort to reverse this undesirable feature of MSCs, we manipulated human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs) to express indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an enzyme that induces immune suppression by inhibiting T cell proliferation and triggering apoptosis in immune cells. Cultures of human UC-MSCs were generated by plastic adherence method. Full-length cDNA of human IDO was cloned into adenovirus shuttle vector. Then, the recombinant virus harboring IDO gene was produced in 293 cells and used to infect UC-MSCs. Expression of IDO protein was detected within infected UC-MSCs, and accumulation of kynurenine was observed in the supernatant. Two human leukemia cell lines, Jurkat and HL-60, were cultured on the monolayer of native or infected UC-MSCs, respectively. It was observed that forced IDO expression abolished the anti-apoptotic effect of UC-MSCs on these leukemia cells and enhanced their proliferation inhibitory effect on activated human lymphocytes as well as leukemia cells. These results suggested that equipping MSCs with IDO could be one of the reasonable strategies to reverse their cancer-supportive effect unfavorable for clinical applications. |

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.
