| Abstract | We investigated the effects of cisplatin (CDDP) on inflammation in general and skin inflammation in particular with application of different treatment models using tadalafil™ (Tad), losartan™ (Los), extracts of grape seed (G.S) and ginko biloba (G.B). Ninety healthy male albino rats were used in this experiment distributed randomly into six groups (n = 15). The duration of the experiment was four weeks. At the end of 1st, 2nd and 4th weeks of treatment, blood samples were subjected to RNA extraction and RT-PCR for interleukin (IL)-1B and IL-18 genes expression. The results showed a significant increase (P < 0.0001) in levels of mRNA genes expression of IL-1B and IL-18 in CDDP exposed rats when compared with control rats. Four weeks after treatment, expression fold changes significantly decreased in all treated groups with variable degrees where Los was the best to decrease the fold changes of IL-1B and IL-18 genes expression. Numbers of blood vessels, CD31 positive proliferating endothelial cells around preexisting skin vessels, CD34 positive blood vessels, perivascular inflammatory cells and total skin inflammatory cells were higher in untreated CDDP exposed rats when compared with control rats. Pathological evaluation revealed that Los followed by Tad then G.B were able to reduce the increased inflammatory markers in blood, skin inflammation and skin blood vessel density in CDDP exposed rats. |

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.
