| Abstract | The role of hepatic xenobiotic regulatory mechanisms in modulating hepatic -tocopherol concentrations during excess vitamin E administration remains unclear. We hypothesized that increased hepatic -tocopherol would cause a marked xenobiotic response. Thus, we assessed cytochrome P450 oxidation systems (phase I), conjugation systems (phase II), and transporters (phase III) after daily -tocopherol injections (100mg/kg body wt) for up to 9days in rats. -Tocopherol injections increased hepatic -tocopherol concentrations nearly 20-fold, along with a 10-fold increase in the hepatic -tocopherol metabolites -CEHC and -CMBHC. Expression of phase I (CYP3A2, CYP3A1, CYP2B2) and phase II (SULT2A1) proteins and/or mRNAs was variably affected by -tocopherol injections; however, expression of phase III transporter genes was consistently changed by -tocopherol. Two liver efflux transporter genes, ABCB1b and ABCG2, were up-regulated after -tocopherol injections, whereas OATP, a liver influx transporter, was down-regulated. Thus, an overload of hepatic -tocopherol increases its own metabolism and increases expression of genes of transporters that are postulated to lead to increased excretion of both vitamin E and its metabolites. |

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.
