| Abstract | UNC93B1 is involved in the delivery of nucleotide-sensing Toll-like receptors (TLR) including TLR9 to endolysosomes. However, possible functions of UNC93A, another member of the UNC-93 superfamily, have not been studied in the context of TLR signaling. Here, we injected naked CpG-ODNs or liposome-encapsulated CpG-ODN (Lipoplex(O)) into the BALB/c mouse peritoneal cavity and investigated expression of mouse UNC93B1 and UNC93A genes in the peritoneal cells. UNC93A mRNA expression was increased by Lipoplex(O) in a time-dependent manner, whereas the expression level of UNC93B1 was not changed. To evaluate whether the expression of UNC93A involves TLR9, TLR9 knock out (TLR-/-) mice were injected with Lipoplex(O) or LipoplexGC(O), and the peritoneal cells were analyzed. The expression of UNC93A was not induced by Lipoplex(O) in TLR9-/- mice. These results suggest that UNC93A is closely associated with TLR9 signaling induced by Lipoplex(O) in the peritoneal cells in vivo. Primary cells including peritoneal cells stimulated with CpG-ODNs, Lipoplex(O), and several cytokines in vitro were prepared. However, UNC93A expression was not induced by any stimulation. To identify cellular localization of UNC93A, human embryonic kidney 293 cells stably expressing UNC93A were established and analyzed by confocal microscopy. The human and mouse UNC93A proteins were detected in the cytoplasm. Further investigation of the UNC93A function related with the CpG-DNA-mediated immune response may provide information to support efficient application of CpG-DNA immunotherapeutics. |

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.
