| Abstract | The effect of 6 days' s.c. infusions of angiotensin II at increasing doses was determined on the uptake of rat or human low density lipoprotein (LDL) and of human fibrinogen by aorta in normal and spontaneously hypertensive rats. Rat or human LDL or human fibrinogen was injected i.v. 5 days after the start of infusion, and 24 hr later the radioactivity of aortic walls was determined. Body weight was almost constant in control rats and moderately decreased in a dose-dependent way by angiotensin II. Diastolic blood pressure decreased slightly over 6 days in control rats and increased transiently at the lowest dose of angiotensin II and progressively with two higher concentrations. All three angiotensin II concentrations significantly increased the uptake of rat and human LDL and of fibrinogen by aorta. The increase was dose related for rat LDL but not for human LDL or fibrinogen. In spontaneously hypertensive rats of the same age in which blood pressure was higher than in angiotensin II-infused rats, protein uptakes were not increased. The blood content of aortic walls was negligible and not altered by angiotensin II. Therefore, the uptake of atherogenic plasma proteins by rat aorta is increased by angiotensin II, but this effect may be independent of its pressor action. |

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.
