| Abstract | The lipid mediator sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) and its type 1 G protein-coupled receptor (S1P1) affect mammalian immunity through alterations in thymocyte emigration, differentiation of T cell subsets, lymphocyte trafficking in lymphoid organs and other tissues, T cell-dendritic cell and T cell-B cell interactions, and cytokine generation. Recent attention to effects of the S1P-S1P1 axis on non-migration functions of lymphocytes includes delineation of a role in terminal differentiation and survival of Th17 effector cells and adaptive Treg cells of the CD4 T cell constellation, and a greater understanding of interactions of the S1P-S1P1 axis with immune cytokines in lymphocyte survival and activities. This breadth of involvement of the S1P-S1P1 axis in immune responses that often are altered in immunological diseases has provided many opportunities for novel therapeutic interventions. A spectrum of pharmacological and immunochemical agents is available that alter immunity by affecting either tissue and fluid concentrations of S1P or levels of expression and signaling activities of S1P1. Such agents have so far been beneficial in the settings of autoimmunity and rejection of transplanted organs, and are likely to become valuable constituents of combined drug programs. |

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.
