| Abstract | Leukotriene B(4)-12-hydroxydehydrogenase/15-oxo-prostaglandin 13-reductase (LTBDH/PGR) is a bifunctional enzyme capable of inactivating leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) and 15-oxo-prostaglandins (15-PGs). Its role in growth suppressive functions in lung cancer was studied in in vitro and in vivo systems. The LTBDH/PGR gene was expressed in lung cancer cell lines through recombinant adenovirus infection, and through a tetracycline-inducible expression system. After restoration of LTBDH/PGR expression in LTBDH/PGR-negative (H1299) or -low (A549) lung cancer cell lines, the restored enzyme induced apoptosis and growth inhibition in vitro. Ectopic expression of LTBDH/PGR caused also suppression of tumorigenicity of A549 cells in nude mice. In contrast, LTBDH/PGR over-expression in LTBDH/PGR-positive (H157) lung cancer cell line induced little apoptosis and growth inhibition. This study indicates that restoration of LTBDH/PGR expression is effective in preventing lung cancer growth in vitro and in vivo. |

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.
