| Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the action of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a potential neuroprotective agent against Parkinson's disease (PD), and to test for toxicity resulting from high doses of EGCG. EGCG was administered to 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) mice at two different doses (10mg/kg and 50mg/kg). EGCG treatment reduced the neuronal death rate to less than 50%. The level of iNOS expression in the MPTP group was 20% higher than that seen in the control group, but in the EGCG groups, iNOS expression was reduced to the level observed in the negative control group. The two doses of EGCG were equally beneficial for cell rescue, and no toxicity was observed with the higher dose. Inhibition of iNOS may be an important mechanism underlying the prevention of MPTP toxicity, and EGCG may potentially be a neuroprotective agent against PD. |

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.
