| Abstract | In situ hybridization was used to study the site and timing of the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin 3 (NT-3), and neurotrophin 5 (NT-5) mRNAs in the developing inner ear of the rat. In the sensory epithelia, the levels of NGF and NT-5 mRNAs were below the detection limit. NT-3 and BDNF mRNAs were expressed in the otic vesicle in overlapping but also in distinct regions. Later in development, NT-3 transcripts were localized to the differentiating sensory and supporting cells of the auditory organ and vestibular maculae. In these sensory epithelia, the intensity of NT-3 mRNA expression decreased in parallel with maturation. The expression of BDNF mRNA was restricted to the sensory cells of both the auditory and vestibular organs, including ampullary cristae. In bioassays, BDNF and NT-3, but not NGF, at physiological concentrations induced neurite outgrowth from the statoacoustic ganglion explants. These results demonstrate that NT-3 and BDNF, rather than NGF and NT-5, are the primary neurotrophins present in the target fields of the cochlear and vestibular neurons. Expression of NT-3 and BDNF mRNAs in the otic vesicle before and during the ingrowth of neurites from the statoacoustic ganglion suggests that NT-3 or BDNF or both may serve as chemoattractants for the early nerve fibers. The results also suggest that these neurotrophins have a role in later development of the cochlear and vestibular neurons. |

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.
