| Abstract | Endothelium-dependent and -independent relaxation of aortic ring preparations was assessed and nitric oxide (NO) synthase activity measured in the lung, and cerebellum of cholesterol-fed and normal rabbits. Endothelium-dependent relaxation of acetylcholine and ATP was depressed while that to the calcium ionophore, A23187, was unaltered in the cholesterol-fed group. Relaxation to sodium nitroprusside was however greater in aortae from the cholesterol-fed animals. Neither Ca(2+)-dependent nor Ca(2+)-independent NO synthase activity could be detected in aortae or hearts taken from either group of animals. Activity of both enzymes was unaltered in cerebellae from both groups of animals. Activity of the Ca(2+)-independent enzyme was however significantly greater (ca. 2 fold) in lungs from the cholesterol-fed rabbits though the activity of the Ca(2+)-dependent NO synthase was not significantly altered. This finding may account for the increased production of nitrogen oxides previously observed in this model of hypercholesterolaemia. |

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.
