| Abstract | Drug metabolizing enzymes like cytochrome P450 (CYP) play an important role in determining the susceptibility of organs or tissue to the toxic effects of drugs or other xenobiotics. There is some evidence indicating that individual isoforms of CYPs are over-expressed in different types of malignant tumors including that of oesophagus, pancreas, breast, lung, colon and stomach. Nevertheless, it is not clear if this change in expression is previous or after the appearance of malignancy. This is important in order to clarify the possible role of xenobiotics in the development of gastric cancer. On the other hand, it has been reported that a high salt ingestion leads to histological changes in rat stomach mucosa including enhanced cell proliferation, lipid peroxidation and intestinal metaplasia. The aim of this study is to explore the expression and activity of CYP families involved in the metabolism of carcinogens in normal rat stomach mucosa and intestinal metaplasia induced by high NaCl ingestion. Male Wistar rats were exposed to diets containing different NaCl concentrations (0.6% control group, 6%, 12%, 18% and 24%) for 12 weeks and histological changes as well as CYP modulation were monitored in gastric mucosa. Chronic gastritis, regenerative hyperplasia and focal metaplasia were noted in animals receiving the 12%, 18% and 24% NaCl diets. In the same groups, induction of CYP1A1 and CYP3A2 was produced, mainly in areas of metaplasia. The expression of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in the gastric mucosa might contribute to chemical activation in the stomach, metabolizing both exogenous and endogenous compounds implicated in the development of gastric cancer. |

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.
