| Abstract | We have developed a method for the purification of retrovirally transduced hematopoietic stem cells, based on a modification of the stem cell purification protocols developed by Spangrude et al. [Spangrude, G., Heimfeld, S. & Weissman, I. (1988) Science 241, 58-64] and Spangrude and Scollay [Spangrude, G. & Scollay, R. (1990) Exp. Hematol. 18, 920-926], that depends upon the use of bone marrow cells isolated from 5-fluorouracil-treated mice that have been subsequently cocultivated with recombinant retrovirus-producing cell lines. We found that purified cell populations bearing a Sca 1+ Lin- Thy 1- surface phenotype represent a 50-100% pure population of spleen colony-forming cells (CFU-S day 12). Animals injected with 300 or more purified cells were consistently radioprotected and reconstituted in multiple lineages with donor cells. Sca 1+ Lin- Thy 1- CFU-S day 12 stem cells were shown to be efficiently (100%) transduced by the recombinant retroviruses used in the study. Gene transfer into long-term reconstituting stem cells, as evidenced by Southern blot analysis of mature hematopoietic cell types 3 months after transplantation, was observed only in recipients injected with large numbers (approximately 4000-5000) of the purified cells. The development of methods for purifying retrovirally transduced stem cells should prove extremely useful for various studies in which it is of interest to characterize the activity of a specific gene product (e.g., growth factor, receptor, oncogene) specifically in primitive hematopoietic cell types. |

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.
