| Abstract | The expression of receptors for cholecystokinin (CCK) and other similar acting Ca2+-mobilizing hormones was studied in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Poly(A)+ RNA was prepared from pancreatic AR42J cells, which normally express receptors for CCK and bombesin and the RNA injected into oocytes. The presence of these pancreatic receptors on the oocytes was then demonstrated by hormone-induced mobilization of 45Ca2+. CCK receptors were present 1 day (maximum, 2 days) after injection of RNA and were generally proportional to the amount of poly(A)+ RNA injected (1-50 ng). Oocyte CCK receptors retained selectivity for CCK analogs (CCK8 greater than unsulfated CCK8 greater than CCK4) and were blocked by the specific CCK receptor antagonist CR 1409. When poly(A)+ RNA was subjected to size fractionation on sucrose gradients, activity-inducing CCK receptors showed a single peak centered at 3 kilobases. The generality of this oocyte system for expressing Ca2+-mobilizing hormone receptors was further shown by expression of a response to bombesin after injection of AR42J cell RNA and a response to vasopressin and angiotensin II when poly(A)+ RNA from rat liver was injected. No response to CCK was demonstrable after injection of liver RNA, demonstrating the specificity of this assay. |

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.
