| Abstract | A progressive loss in the ability of cells to maintain their normal specialized states of differentiation could be the common denominator underlying much of the physiology and pathology associated with the mammalian aging process. We investigated this possibility by searching for an age-dependent derepression of endogenous genes in tissues in which they are not normally expected to be expressed. Complementary DNA (cDNA) probes to globin genes and to the murine leukemia type C RNA virus (MuLV) genome were used to detect the presence of RNA complementary to these genes in RNA extracted from brain and liver in young and old mice. Significant amounts of globin RNA were found in brain nuclei and cytoplasm. No age difference was found in the globin RNA sequences present, but the number of globin RNA molecules increased from about 15 in 6-month to 34 in 27-month-old animals for nuclei and 280 in 6-month to 500 in 27-month-old animals for cytoplasm. Similar results were found for liver. RNA complementary to the MuLV cDNA probe was also found but, in contrast to globin, the different RNA sequences increased in both brain and liver nuclei from about 45% of the MuLV genome in 6-month to 72% in 27-month-old animals. The number of MuLV-related RNA molecules remained constant at about 22 and 38 per nuclei for brain and liver, respectively. Derepression of genes of this magnitude could result in a time-dependent increase in virus-related diseases and a general deterioration of the organism. |

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.
