中国红豆杉细胞经重复诱导和蔗糖饲喂后云南紫杉烷C生产的相应基因表达变化

红豆杉悬浮培养细胞具有可持续生产抗癌药物紫杉醇及其他紫杉烷的潜力。在中国红豆杉悬浮培养细胞中,云南紫杉烷 C(Tc) 是主要的次生代谢产物。为促使代谢前体由生成其他紫杉烷的代谢支路转到生产紫杉醇,实验采用实时定量PCR技术 (RQ-PCR) 揭示细胞培养过程中紫杉醇及紫杉烷合成关键基因的动态变化。在细胞培养的第7天和第12天,以100 μmol/L 2,3-二羟丙基茉莉酸 (DHPJA) 进行诱导,同时在第7天饲喂20 g/L的蔗糖,在此过程中考察6个关键基因 (TASY,TDAT,T5αH,TαH,T10βH和T14βH) 的表达变化。上述联合调控手段使得Tc产量在第1次诱导8 d后达 (554.46±21.28) mg/L,第2次诱导9 d后高达 (997.72±1.51) mg/L。代谢早期基因TASY和TDAT在第1次诱导后表达量分别提高了182和98倍,在第2次诱导后表达量分别提高了208和131倍。在每次诱导后基因表达量提高约持续24 h,之后下降。其他4个基因 (T5αH、TαH、T10βH和T14βH) 的情况有所不同。基因TαH在2次诱导后表达量分别提高了3 061和1 016倍。其他3个基因T5αH、T10βH、T14βH在第1次诱导后表达量分别提高13、38、20倍,在第2次诱导后分别提高7、16、6倍。RQ-PCR结果表明基因表达和Tc积累之间存在紧密相关性：基因表达的变化与Tc产量的变化相一致,诱导可提高6个基因的表达量。基因的高表达随着培养过程逐渐衰减,再次诱导可再次促使基因的高表达。     

原位吸附和茉莉酸甲酯联合使用显著提高中国红豆杉细胞云南紫杉烷c的生产

本实验所用的中国红豆杉细胞悬浮培养体系中,云南紫杉烷c(Tc)是主要的次生代谢产物,该化合物有类神经生长因子活性,提高其产量是进一步规模化生产的前提。本研究考察了原位吸附和茉莉酸甲酯(MJA)联合调控提高Tc产量的可能性。在培养的第7天加入浓度为100μmol/L的MJA虽然会使细胞的生物量下降10%～30%,但是单位细胞内Tc含量和Tc产量均有显著提高,分别是对照的3.6和3.3倍。吸附剂XAD-7在不同时间加入对Tc的合成影响显著。在培养的第7天同时加入100μmol/L的MJA和100g/L的XAD-7会使细胞生物量增加,Tc产量显著提高。培养到第21天,Tc产量达477.4mg/L,为对照的6.3倍,为只加MJA的1.9倍,其中94%的Tc被树脂吸附。实验结果表明,在MJA诱导高表达的过程中,吸附剂XAD-7的加入使细胞内代谢产物外泌,浓度降低,减轻产物反馈抑制现象,从而大幅度提高代谢物产量,有较好的生产前景。

The kinetics of taxoid accumulation in cell suspension cultures of Taxus following elicitation with methyl jasmonate

Cell suspension cultures of Taxus canadensis and Taxus cuspidata rapidly produced paclitaxel (Taxol) and other taxoids in response to elicitation with methyl jasmonate. By optimizing the concentration of the elicitor, and the timing of elicitation, we have achieved the most rapid accumulation of paclitaxel in a plant cell culture, yet reported. The greatest accumulation of paclitaxel occurred when methyl jasmonate was added to cultures at a final concentration of 200 microM on day 7 of the culture cycle. The concentration of paclitaxel increased in the extracellular (cell-free) medium to 117 mg/day within 5 days following elicitation, equivalent to a rate of 23.4 mg/L per day. Paclitaxel was only one of many taxoids whose concentrations increased significantly in response to elicitation. Despite the rapid accumulation and high concentration of paclitaxel, its concentration never exceeded 20% of the total taxoids produced in the elicited culture. Two other taxoids, 13-acetyl-9-dihydrobaccatin III and baccatin VI, accounted for 39% to 62% of the total taxoids in elicited cultures. The accumulation of baccatin III did not parallel the pattern of accumulation for paclitaxel. Baccatin III continued to accumulate until the end of the culture cycle, at which point most of the cells in the culture were dead, implying a possible role as a degradation product of taxoid biosynthesis, rather than as a precursor.     

Taxus metabolomics: methyl jasmonate preferentially induces production of taxoids oxygenated at C-13 in Taxus x media cell cultures

Cells from suspension cultures of Taxus cuspidata were extracted with pentane as a source of relatively non-polar taxoids. Of the 13 taxoids identified in this fraction, eight were oxygenated at C-14 and two had not been previously described. These taxoids, along with existing taxoid standards, were employed to profile the metabolites of Taxus x media cv. Hicksii cell suspension cultures induced with methyl jasmonate to produce paclitaxel (Taxol). The majority of the taxoid metabolites produced in these induced cultures were oxygenated at C-13, and not C-14.     

Taxoids profiling of suspension Taxus chinensis var. mairei cells in response to shear stress

To develop an optimal bioprocess for paclitaxel (Taxols) supply, taxoid biosynthetic pathway regulation must be better understood. The main taxoid metabolites (paclitaxel, baccatin III, taxol C, etc.) in Taxus cell culture showed great difference under shear stress. However, the regulating mechanism of taxoids metabolism under shear stress remained elusive. Here an efficient metabolic profiling approach combined with multivariate analysis was employed to profile taxoids changes of Taxus cells under laminar shear stress. A total of 21 taxoids were identified and quantified by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with Q-TOF mass spectrometry. The result showed the contents of paclitaxel and baccatin III were reduced by shear stress, indicating the inhibitory effect of shear stress on paclitaxel biosynthesis. The levels of other taxoids uninvolved in paclitaxel biosynthesis were decreased except several metabolites. Further analysis of mapping measured taxoids concentrations onto paclitaxel biosynthesis pathway illustrating proposed intermediates and “off-pathway” metabolites revealed shear stress might disrupt the appropriate cyclization process of geranylgeranyl-pyrophosphate, aggravate the inappropriate order of hydroxylations and acylations, and not be good for functional group oxetane formation. These findings revealed the possible mechanism for shear stress limiting paclitaxel production and might have important biotechnological applications to increase the yields of paclitaxel and relevant precursors.     

Production of taxoids with biological activity by plants and callus culture from selected Taxus genotypes

Twenty seven different yew trees belonging to various genotypes and hybrids have been screened for their capacity to produce significant amounts of taxoids provided with biological activity in the tubulin test. From the three best genotypes selected, Taxus x media "Sargentii" proved to be able to produce viable calluses from excised roots placed in vitro. Taxoid composition at various times of the in vitro culture was determined and the carcinostatic efficiency of the extracts was established using the KB cell cytotoxicity test. In leaves and calluses, respectively, 0.069 and 0.032% paclitaxel (taxol) contents were found. These contents were significantly higher than those previously reported for other genotypes.     

The influence of ultraviolet radiation on the content of pharmacologically active taxoids in yew tissues

The aim of the work was the investigation of the influence of UV radiation on the taxoids contents in yew tissues. The experiment was performed using Taxus baccata var. Aurea Corr. twigs irradiated with UV C (lambda = 254 nm) and UV A (lambda = 366 nm) in comparison to control samples. Multistep procedure of sample preparation was applied before the analysis of paclitaxel and 10-DAB III: SPE using alumina - for purification from the chlorophylles, waxes and polar balasts as well as zonal micropreparative TLC on silica - for isolation of partially separated fractions. The quantitation of some taxoids in the isolated fractions was performed using RP-HPLC procedure in system C18/acetonitrile + water. The experiments with UV-A and especially UV-C radiation showed changes in concentrations of paclitaxel and its precursor-10-deacetylbaccatin III. The results can be utilized to increase the yield of the taxoids isolated for medicinal and practical purposes.     

Kinetic studies of paclitaxel production by Taxus canadensis cultures in batch and semicontinuous with total cell recycle

Suspension cultures of Taxus canadensis were elicited with methyl jasmonate (MJ) under defined headspace ethylene concentrations. Kinetic studies of growth, nutrient consumption, pH variation, and paclitaxel accumulation were conducted in batch cultures and semicontinuous culture with total cell recycle. A dramatic increase of paclitaxel was obtained when the cultures were elicited with 100 microM MJ, but cell growth was thereby arrested. Supplementation of acetyl-CoA and MJ to the culture proved to be another way to improve paclitaxel yields. Using semicontinuous culture with total cell recycle, paclitaxel accumulation was increased by a factor of 4.0 relative to that in the batch culture during 35 days of cultivation.     

MS/MS profiling of taxoids from the needles of Taxus wallichiana

Ammonium cationisation has been used for taxoid profiling of partially purified methanolic extracts of needles of Taxus wallichiana growing in different regions of the Himalayas (Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, UP Hills, Darjeeling, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh) by electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The MS/MS spectra of the [M + NH4]+ or [M + H]+ ions gave structurally diagnostic fragment ions which revealed information about the taxane skeleton as well as the number and nature of the substituents. The rearranged 11(15-->1)-abeo-taxanes showed a characteristic elimination of the hydroxyisopropyl group with an acetoxy/benzoyloxy group from C-9. The identification of the taxoids was achieved by comparison of the MS/MS spectra with those of authentic taxoids or was based on biogenetic grounds. The results were corroborated by liquid chromatography-MS analysis. Out of the 50 taxoids identified, 21 belonged to the rearranged class. The presence of paclitaxel in the samples from four regions was confirmed: the study also revealed the occurrence of several basic taxoids in these samples. MS/MS profiling by electrospray ionisation was shown to be a fast and reliable technique for the analysis of taxoid samples.
