| Abstract | Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) increased the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO; EC 1.13.11.34) activity in HL-60 cells induced to granulocytic differentiation by dimethyl sulfoxide. The presence of a factor in human serum that caused a similar increase was recently demonstrated. Several observations indicate that the serum factor consists of isoforms of TGF beta. Heat-treated serum and TGF beta both resulted in approximately 10-fold increased 5-LO activity of HL-60 cells, antiserum to TGF beta neutralized the 5-LO-increasing activity in serum, and physical properties of the serum factor (lipophilic nature, alkaline pI, stability to heat and acid) coincided with those of TGF beta. The pattern of activity of native and heat-treated sera is compatible with activation of a latent form of TGF beta in serum. This activity was specific for TGF beta, since none of several other cytokines could increase 5-LO activity in differentiating HL-60 cells. However, granulocyte/macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor alpha enhanced the effect of TGF beta. The most prominent effects of TGF beta, whether alone or together with GM-CSF, were observed for 5-LO activity in intact cells (10-fold or 30-fold induction, respectively). 5-LO protein levels were less affected (up to 2- or 5-fold, respectively, as judged from Western blots). There was no appreciable effect of TGF beta, or a combination of TGF beta and GM-CSF, on 5-LO mRNA expression. |

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.
