| Abstract | Lower-limb ischemia is a major health problem. Because of the absence of effective treatment in the advanced stages of the disease, amputation is undertaken to alleviate unbearable symptoms. Novel therapeutic approaches include the intramuscular use of autologous bone marrow cells (BMCs). Because tissue ischemia is associated with an overwhelming generation of oxygen radicals and negative effects due to perturbed shear-stress, metabolic intervention with antioxidants and l-arginine could potentially induce beneficial effects beyond those achieved by BMCs. The protective effect of autologous BMCs and vascular protection by metabolic cotreatment (1.0% vitamin E added to the chow and 0.05% vitamin C and 6% l-arginine added to the drinking water) were examined in ischemia-induced angiogenesis in the mouse hindlimb, a model of extensive acute peripheral arterial occlusion. i.v. BMC therapy improved blood flow and increased capillary densities and expression of Ki-67, a proliferation-associated protein. This beneficial effect was amplified by metabolic cotreatment, an intervention inducing vascular protection, at least in part, through the nitric oxide pathway, reduction of systemic oxidative stress, and macrophage activation. Therefore, although a cautious approach is mandatory when experimental findings are extended to human diseases, autologous BMCs together with metabolic intervention could be an effective clinical treatment for peripheral arterial disease. |

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.
