| Abstract | Vascular disruptions including blood–brain barrier breakdown and pathologic angiogenesis contribute to the development of epilepsy in normal brains. The Notch signaling pathway is activated in response to seizure activity, and its activation promotes seizures, although its exact role in angiogenesis is poorly understood. Here, we have examined the role of Notch signaling in angiogenesis in a kainic acid-induced mouse model of epilepsy. We show that following seizures, expression of the Notch ligand Jagged1 in the hippocampus is upregulated in astrocytes and levels of activated Notch1 are increased in endothelial cells. Using an in vitro model of angiogenesis, we provide evidence that brain endothelial tube formation is promoted in the presence of astrocytes. Isolated primary brain endothelial cells develop significantly longer vascular sprouts when cultured in the presence of astrocytes. Notch1 signaling is activated in brain endothelial cells cocultured with astrocytes, and astrocytic Jagged1 expression is required for angiogenic enhancement, as shown by the inhibitory effect of Jagged1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) expression in astrocytes on endothelial cell vascular sprouting in vitro. Therapies targeting the Jagged1/Notch1 signaling pathway may therefore be effective in limiting aberrant angiogenesis following status epilepticus. |

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.
