| Abstract | Incubation of wild-type S49 lymphoma cells with glucocorticoids, such as dexamethasone and hydrocortisone, inhibits the activity of ornithine decarboxylase (L-ornithine carboxylyase, EC 4.1.1.17), the rate-limiting enzyme in the pathway of polyamine biosynthesis. The kinetics of this inhibition are more rapid than the glucocorticoid-mediated growth arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle or in glucocorticoid-mediated cytolysis of these cells. The inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase activity by corticosteroids is specific for steroids of the glucocorticoid class. Results obtained with variant S49 cells having lesions in the pathways of glucocorticoid or cyclic AMP action indicate that cytoplasmic glucocorticoid receptors, as well as nuclear transfer of steroid--receptor complexes, are required for the inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase activity but that this inhibition does not require hormonal activation of adenylate cyclase or cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Because glucocorticoid-mediated inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase occurs when cellular protein synthesis has decreased less than 20%, this inhibition may represent a specific glucocorticoid-mediated deinduction of ornithine decarboxylase in S49 cells. Inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase activity may offer a useful marker for suppression of growth and cell cycle progression in these and other lymphoma cells. |

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.
