| Abstract | Background Intra-bone marrow injection (IBMI) in rats is adopted in many studies for stem cell and hematopoietic cell transplantation. IBMI in the tibia or the femur results in severe distress to the animal. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate intra-iliac injections as an alternative approach for IBMI. Methods Twenty-seven Sprague Dawley rats were assigned into 3 groups, 9 rats each, for 4 weeks. The control group rats were not injected. Tibia group rats were injected intra-tibial and the iliac group rats were injected intra-iliac with saline. Behavioral, radiological, histopathological, and stress evaluation was performed. Total bilirubin, cortisol, and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) were measured. Results Behavioral measurements revealed deviation compared to control, in both injected groups, on the 1st and 2nd week. By the 3rd week, it was equivalent to control in the iliac group only. Bilirubin and cortisol levels were increased by intra-tibial injection compared to intra-iliac injection. The IGF-1 gene expression increased compared to control at 1st and 2nd weeks in intra-iliac injection and decreased by intra-tibial injection at 2nd week. The thickness of the iliac crest was not different from the control group, whereas there were significant differences between the control and tibia groups. Healing of the iliac crest was faster compared to the tibia. In the 3rd week, the tibia showed fibrosis at the site of injection whereas the iliac crest showed complete bone reconstruction. Conclusion Intra-iliac injections exert less distress on animals, and by 3 weeks, they regained their normal activity in comparison to intra-tibial injections. |

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.
