| Abstract | Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a naturally occurring gaseous transmitter, which is important in normal physiology and disease. In the present study, the involvement of H2S in the regulation of the immune response induced by burn injury was investigated in mice. Adult male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to burn injuries and treated with vehicle (0.9% sodium chloride, NaCl; 100 ml/kg body weight; subcutaneously, s.c.) or the H2S donor (sodium hydrosulfide, NaHS; 2 mg/kg body weight; s.c.). Compared with the controls, mice which received burn injuries exhibited a significant decrease in plasma H2S levels. Moreover, the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) , interleukin (IL)6 and IL8 significantly increased, while IL10 levels were decreased, compared with that of the controls in the plasma of mice subjected to burn injuries. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in the liver tissue of injured mice was also markedly higher compared with that of the control group. However, the administration of NaHS significantly decreased the levels of TNF , IL6 and IL8 but increased the levels of IL10 in the plasma of mice subjected to burn injuries. In addition, the MPO activity was decreased by NaHS. These results suggested that H2S regulates the inflammatory response induced by burn injury by modulating the levels of TNF , IL6, IL8 and IL10. Thus, it was proposed that the administration of the H2S donor, NaHS, may be a useful therapy against the exaggerated immune response that is associated with burn injury. |

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.
