| Abstract | Transection of a peripheral nerve results in Wallerian degeneration of the nerve segment distal to the lesion site and the initiation of axonal regeneration just proximal to it (neuroma site). Nonneuronal cells resident in peripheral nerve are suggested to play an important role in neural repair mechanisms through diffusable molecules that they synthesize and secrete. We examined the array of proteins synthesized and secreted by nonneuronal cells resident in the frog peripheral nerve, which is known for its high regenerative capacity. Nerve segments were incubated in medium containing [35S]methionine, and the secreted radioactively labeled proteins were analyzed by gel electrophoresis. Nerve injury resulted in the complete down-regulation of a group of proteins synthesized and secreted by nonneuronal cells in intact nerve. At the same time, the synthesis and secretion of several proteins were up-regulated in the neuroma and degenerating nerve segments, proximal and distal to the axotomy site, respectively. Proteins secreted by the proximal segment were of apparent kDa/pI (mass/isoelectric point) values of 215/5.6, 76/6.7, 73/7.0, 44/5.2, 36.5/5.6, 35.5/6.0, and 32/6.0. Similar proteins were secreted by the degenerating distal segment but with the exception of variable reductions in the 44- and 32-kDa proteins and increases in proteins of apparent kDa/pI values of 39/5.2 and 29/7.3-7.4. Step gradient ultracentrifugation suggested that the latter two are apolipoproteins. Comparison with plasma apolipoproteins further indicated that nerve and plasma apolipoproteins differ. The up-regulation of the synthesis and secretion of these proteins concurrently with nerve degeneration and regeneration strongly imply that these molecules are involved in neuronal repair mechanisms. |

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.
