| Abstract | CD74, a Type II membrane glycoprotein and MHC class II chaperone involved in antigen processing, is normally expressed by cells associated with the immune system. CD74 also forms heterodimers with CD44 to generate receptors to macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), a proinflammatory cytokine. Following targeted Alb-Cre-mediated deletion of Ikkß in Ikkß(Δhep) mice (Ikkß(F/F):Alb-Cre, a strain highly susceptible to chemically induced hepatotoxicity and hepatocarcinogenesis), CD74 is expressed abundantly by adult hepatocytes throughout liver acini, albeit more intensely in midzonal-to-centrilobular regions. By comparison, CD74 expression is not observed in Ikkß(F/F) hepatocytes, nor is it augmented in the livers of Ikkß(+/+):Alb-Cre mice; CD74 is barely detectable in cultured embryonic fibroblasts from Ikkß(-/-) mice. Microarray profiling shows that constitutive CD74 expression in Ikkß(Δhep) hepatocytes is accompanied by significantly augmented expression of CD44 and key genes associated with antigen processing and host defense, including MHC class II I-A , I-Aß, and I-Eß chains, CIITA and CD86. Taken together, these observations suggest that Ikkß(Δhep) hepatocytes might express functional capacities for class II-restricted antigen presentation and heightened responsiveness to MIF-signaling, and also suggest further roles for intrahepatocellular IKKß in the suppression or inactivation of molecules normally associated with the formation and differentiation of cells of the immune system. |

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.
