| Abstract | Nerve growth factor (NGF)-deprivation or axotomy of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons causes stress, which they cope by triggering various mechanisms. Among several molecular changes, in the present study, we demonstrate preprotachykinin-A–substance P (PPTA–SP) and activity-dependent neuroprotective protein–vasoactive intestinal peptide (ADNP–VIP) expression pattern using DRG neurons–Schwann cells coculture and axotomy model. In the presence of NGF, DRG cultures showed high levels of PPTA and ADNP mRNA expression, which were significantly suppressed in the absence of NGF and/or nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition by N $^{G}$-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME), suggesting that both NGF and nitric oxide (NO) can regulate PPTA and ADNP expression. However, treating coculture with NO donor, diethylenetriamine nitric oxide (DETA–NO) did not increase PPTA and ADNP expression in the presence or absence of NGF, although there was a marginal increase in ADNP expression in the absence of NGF. NGF-deprivation increases endogenous NO; thus, DETA–NO had no further effect on PPTA and ADNP expression. Alternatively, NGF produced from NO-stimulated Schwann cells influence gene expression. In addition, interestingly, DETA–NO treatment of Schwann cells alone suppresses both PPTA and ADNP, suggesting differential response of DRG neurons–Schwann cells coculture to DETA–NO. SP and ADNP immunostaining of axotomized DRGs revealed significant reduction in SP and ADNP compared to intact DRG, which was partially recovered in neuronal NOS blocker, 7-nitroindazole (7-NI)-treated DRGs, particularly intense ADNP staining in satellite glia. As ADNP is VIP-responsive gene, we further explored VIP expression in DRGs. Axotomy increased VIP in DRG neurons, but 7-NI treatment caused intense VIP staining in satellite glia. These observations suggest a complex interaction of NO–NGF with PPTA/SP and ADNP–VIP in neuron–glial communication when neurons are stressed. |

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.
