Abstract | The effects of several hematopoietic growth factors on primitive murine bone marrow progenitor cells [colony-forming unit(s)-spleen (CFU-S)] have been investigated during culture for 2-6 days. Interleukin 3 (IL-3) was required for CFU-S survival in culture, and the combination of IL-3 and interleukin 6 (IL-6) increased the number of CFU-S in culture 10-fold over the number obtained with IL-3 alone. Stem cell function was measured by competitive repopulation; IL-3 was required, and IL-3 and IL-6 appear to act synergistically to enhance stem cell recovery from these cultures. These data appear to be relevant for retroviral-mediated gene transfer into stem and progenitor cells. Murine bone marrow cells were infected with a retrovirus containing the human beta-globin gene in the presence of various growth factors. Only 2 of 17 mice reconstituted with cells infected in the presence of IL-3 alone showed long-term expression of the human beta-globin gene (12 months), as opposed to 6 of 11 mice reconstituted with cells infected in the presence of IL-3 and IL-6. Medium conditioned by 5637 bladder carcinoma cells, a source of several hematopoietic growth factors, increased the frequency of infection of CFU-S but did not enhance stem cell infection or the repopulating potential of cultured bone marrow cells. Stem cells containing the human beta-globin provirus from these animals were shown to be capable of reconstituting secondary recipients in which the human beta-globin gene was expressed. |

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.
