| Abstract | When chronically provoked to increased physiologic activity, organs increase in mass through augmented protein protein synthesis. This process of compensatory hypertrophy can involve cell division as well as cell growth. To test for molecules that might regulate organ size, by inducing hypertrophy, we performed a series of experiments using isolated, perfused, canine hearts in which the left ventricle was beating but performed no work. Hypertrophying hearts and kidneys as well as normal control organs were extracted and the extracts were perfused through isolated heart preparations. Before and after perfusion, RNA was extracted from fragments of the isolated hearts and translated in cell-free media containing [35S]methionine. Incorporation of methionine into protein was measured by liquid scintillation spectrometry. When perfused through normal hearts, extracts from hypertrophying heart and kidney were able to increase greatly the translational ability of RNA extracted from the normal hearts; corresponding perfusates from nonhypertrophying hearts and kidneys had no effect. Our results indicate that molecules that initiate hypertrophic organ growth are extractable, are generated by the cells of the organ under stress, and are probably similar in heart and kidney and perhaps in many other organs as well. |

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.
