H2O2和ABA对干旱高温复合胁迫诱导的玉米叶片sHSPs表达的影响

以玉米脱落酸(ABA)缺失突变体vp5及其野生型Vp5的叶片为材料,分别采用ABA、碘化钾(H2O2清除剂)、钨酸钠(ABA抑制剂)预先处理,对干旱+高温复合胁迫下玉米叶片小热休克蛋白(sHSPs)基因表达进行研究,以确定H2O2和ABA对干旱+高温复合胁迫诱导的玉米叶片sHSPs基因表达的影响。结果显示:(1)与对照和干旱相比,高温、干旱+高温复合胁迫显著诱导了sHSP16.9、sHSP17.2、sHSP17.4、sHSP17.5、sHSP22和sHSP26等6种sHSPs的表达。(2)H2O2清除剂KI和ABA抑制剂钨酸钠预处理,仅略微抑制高温、干旱+高温复合胁迫诱导的6种sHSPs表达。(3)与未用100μmol/L ABA预处理的vp5相比,100μmol/L ABA预处理仅略微提高了高温、干旱+高温复合胁迫诱导的6种sHSPs的表达水平。研究表明,在干旱+高温复合胁迫条件下H2O2和ABA参与了干旱+高温复合胁迫诱导的玉米叶片sHSPs表达,但并无显著影响,暗示了H2O2和ABA不是干旱+高温复合胁迫诱导sHSPs表达的重要调控因子。     

水分胁迫诱导玉米叶片质外体产生H2O2机理

通过组织化学染色、电镜观察、酶活性分析对水分胁迫诱导玉米叶片质外体产生H2O2进行了研究。结果表明:水分胁迫能够诱导玉米叶片内源ABA的积累,ABA参与了水分胁迫诱导的玉米叶片H2O2的产生,质膜NADPH氧化酶、细胞壁过氧化物酶(POD)以及质外体多胺氧化酶(PAO)是水分胁迫诱导玉米细胞在质外体产生H2O2的来源,其中质膜NADPH氧化酶是主要来源;内源ABA的积累参与了水分胁迫激活的质膜NADPH氧化酶、细胞壁POD和质外体PAO活性的提高。研究认为,水分胁迫诱导玉米细胞在质外体产生H2O2可能是由于水分胁迫下内源ABA的积累通过激活质膜NADPH氧化酶、细胞壁POD以及质外体PAO的活性而实现的。     

一氧化氮对盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根生长和氧化损伤的影响

0.05和0.10 mmol/L一氧化氮(NO)供体硝普钠(sodium mtropmsside,SNP)处理明显减轻NaCl浓度为150 mmo1/L左右的盐胁迫对小麦幼苗根生长的抑制效应,其中0.05mmol/L的SNP效果最明显;0.30mmol/L以上的SNP处理对根抑制无明显缓解作用;当NaCl浓度大于300 mmol/L时,各种浓度的SNP均不能减轻盐胁迫对根生长的抑制.以N O清除剂血红蛋白(hemoglobin,Hb)以及NOx-,K3Fe(CN)6等为对照,观察到0.05 mmol/L的SNP能不同程度地提高150mmo/L盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根尖细胞中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(ascorbateperoxidase,APX)活性,明显降低MDA、H2O2和O2-.的积累,阻断盐胁迫诱导的根尖细胞DNA片段化,表明NO能有效缓解盐胁迫引起的小麦幼苗根尖细胞的氧化损伤.     

一氧化氮(NO)对镉胁迫下小麦幼苗氧化损伤的影响

为探讨一氧化氮(NO)对重金属镉胁迫后小麦幼苗氧化损伤的影响。采用营养液水培法,以"晋麦8号"为材料,一氧化氮供体硝普钠(SNP),NO清除剂牛血红蛋白(Hb)及SNP类似物亚铁氰化钠(SF)分别处理小麦幼苗,研究NO在镉(Cd)胁迫下对小麦幼苗抗氧化系统的影响。结果显示,SNP处理可以缓解镉胁迫对幼苗生长抑制,显著增加可溶性蛋白、叶绿素和GSH含量,减少丙二醛(MDA)和过氧化氢(H2O2)的含量,并降低超氧阴离子(O2·-)产生速率、可溶性糖和脯氨酸的积累。而NO清除剂牛血红蛋白(Hb)处理使镉胁迫对小麦幼苗的毒害增强,SNP类似物亚铁氰化钠(SF)处理则没有缓解效应;进一步实验发现,SNP降低了镉胁迫下超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)等抗氧化相关酶的活性,减轻了镉胁迫的氧化损伤。NO可以通过调节抗氧化酶系统来缓解Cd对植物的毒害。     

一氧化氮参与调节盐胁迫下脱落酸诱导的小麦幼苗叶片脯氨酸的累积

不同浓度(0.01～5.00mmol/L)的外源一氧化氮(NO)供体硝普钠(SNP)以浓度依赖性的性式诱导150mmol/L NaCl胁迫下小麦(Triticum aestivum L.cv.Yangmai 158)幼苗叶片脯氨酸的累积。其中0.1 mmol/L的SNP效果最明显,而结合采用NO清除剂c-PTIO和血红蛋白的处理均分别逆转了该效应。研究结果还发现:0.1 mmol/L SNP诱导的脯氨酸累积还可能有利于盐胁迫下小麦幼苗的保水性;0.1 mmol/L的SNP显著激活了内源ABA的合成,而结合血红蛋白的处理则证实,在外源ABA诱导脯氨酸累积的过程中NO可能作用于ABA信号分子的下游,但NO和ABA信号分子在此诱导反应中不存在累积效应。进一步研究脯氨酸合成和降解的酶促反应途径,发现外源NO处理前4天内可能主要是通过提高Δ~1-吡咯啉-5-羧酸合成酶(P5CS)的活性来促进脯氨酸的合成,以后直至第8天主要是通过抑制脯氨酸脱氢酶(ProDH)的活性来抑制脯氨酸的降解;ABA对于P5CS和ProDH活性的调节能力弱于NO。此外,Ca~(2 )在NO诱导的盐胁迫下小麦叶片脯氨酸累积的信号分子途径中起重要的介导作用。

通过根系施加脱落酸(ABA)合成抑制剂钨酸钠,研究盐胁迫(150 mmol·L^-1 NaCl)下菊芋根系ABA信号对根系Na⁺转运、叶片Na⁺积累和光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)的影响。结果表明:钨酸钠抑制盐胁迫下根系ABA合成,降低根系Na⁺外排,提高根系Na⁺向叶片的转运系数。盐胁迫增加叶片Na⁺含量,没有影响叶片膜脂过氧化、PSⅡ反应中心蛋白合成和PSⅡ最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)。根系ABA合成受抑制,显著增加盐胁迫下叶片Na⁺积累,加剧叶片膜脂过氧化,损伤PSⅡ反应中心蛋白,显著降低F_v/F_m,诱发PSⅡ光抑制。总之,盐胁迫下菊芋根系ABA信号诱导根系Na⁺外排,抑制Na⁺向地上部转运,有利于减少叶片Na⁺积累,防御PSⅡ氧化损伤。

脱落酸调节植物抵御水分胁迫的机制研究

干旱、盐渍、低温等均可导致植物可利用水分的亏缺,表现为水分胁迫。植物感受到水分胁迫,诱导脱落酸（abscisic acid,ABA）生物合成。ABA可通过促使气孔关闭或抑制气孔开放,使作物尽可能地降低蒸腾失水,以抵御水分胁迫。该文就植物激素ABA及其下游信号过氧化氢（hydrogenperoxide,H2O2）、一氧化氮（nitric oxide,NO）以及Ca2＋等在植物气孔运动调节方面的研究进展进行概述,以构建水分胁迫下ABA调节植物气孔运动的可能模式。

ABA, hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide signalling in stomatal guard cells

Increased synthesis and redistribution of the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) in response to water deficit stress initiates an intricate network of signalling pathways in guard cells leading to stomatal closure. Despite the large number of ABA signalling intermediates that are known in guard cells, new discoveries are still being made. Recently, the reactive oxygen species hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and the reactive nitrogen species nitric oxide (NO) have been identified as key molecules regulating ABA-induced stomatal closure in various species. As with many other physiological responses in which H2O2 and NO are involved, stomatal closure in response to ABA also appears to require the tandem synthesis and action of both these signalling molecules. Recent pharmacological and genetic data have identified NADPH oxidase as a source of H2O2, whilst nitrate reductase has been identified as a source of NO in Arabidopsis guard cells. Some signalling components positioned downstream of H2O2 and NO are calcium, protein kinases and cyclic GMP. However, the exact interaction between the various signalling components in response to H2O2 and NO in guard cells remains to be established.     

外源一氧化氮对渗透胁迫下小麦幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化的缓解作用

采用15%的聚乙二醇-6000(PEG-6000)对扬麦158三叶一心期的幼苗根部进行轻度渗透胁迫处理,并通过添加不同浓度的一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)供体硝普钠(sodium nitropussidi,SNP)和相应的对照(BO-3/NO-2),研究外源NO处理对渗透胁迫下小麦幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化作用的影响.结果发现,0.1 nnol/L的SNP能降低渗透胁迫造成的小麦幼苗叶片脂氧合酶(lipoxygenase,LOX)活性的提高,降低超氧阴离子(O-2)的产生速率和质膜相对透性的增加以及丙二醛(MDA)和H2O2的累积;0.1 mmol/L的SNP还能够诱导超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)活性,加速脯氨酸(Pro)的累积,而0.5mmo1/L的SNP和0.1mmo1/L的NO3/NO2(对照)处理的效果则不明显.上述结果表明低浓度NO对渗透胁迫造成的膜脂过氧化有明显的缓解效应.     

Oxidative and nitrosative stress in the maintenance of myocardial function

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated by several different cellular sources, and their accumulation within the myocardium is widely considered to cause harmful oxidative stress. On the other hand, their role as second messengers has gradually emerged. The equilibrium of the nitroso/redox balance between reactive nitrogen species and ROS is crucial for the health of cardiomyocytes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of sources of oxidative stress in cardiac myocytes and describes the role of the nitroso/redox balance in cardiac pathophysiology. Although the exact mechanism of ROS production by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases (Nox's) is not completely understood, Nox2 and Nox4 have particularly important roles within the myocardium. Increasing evidence suggests that Nox2 produces superoxide and Nox4 generates only hydrogen peroxide. We also discuss the key role of nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) in the maintenance of the nitroso/redox balance: uncoupled endothelial NOS has been suggested to shift from nitric oxide to ROS production, contributing to increased oxidative stress within the myocardium. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of sequentially targeting and/or regulating the specific sources of oxidative and nitrosative stress to prevent and/or reverse myocardial dysfunction. Inhibition of NADPH oxidase-dependent ROS is considered to be a potential strategy for treatment of cardiomyopathy. Neither in vivo nor clinical data are available for NADPH oxidase inhibitors. Specifically targeting the mitochondria with the antioxidant MitoQ would be a very promising translation approach, because it could prevent mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening when ROS are produced during heart reperfusion. Enhancing NO signaling could also be a promising therapeutic approach against myocardial dysfunction.     

一氧化氮对小麦叶片老化过程的调节

用不同浓度(0.05、0.10、0.20、0.50 mmol/L)的外源一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)供体硝普钠(sodiumnitroprusside,SNP)处理正常生长小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)叶片(二叶一心期时全展第一叶).结果显示低浓度SNP(0.05、0.10、0.20 mmol/L)可以明显降低叶片H2O2和MDA的水平,其中0.10 mmol/LSNP的作用最为明显;而较高浓度SNP(0.50 mmol/L)则作用相反.进一步采用0.10 mmol/L SNP处理不同叶位的小麦叶片(四叶一心期),结果表明低浓度NO对不同老化阶段中叶片的H2O2、O-2和MDA累积都有缓解作用,并明显减缓叶绿素、可溶性叶蛋白尤其是Rubisco的降解,有效延缓了叶片的老化进程.在完整叶绿体体外老化实验中也发现,不同浓度SNP(0.05、0.10、0.20、0.50、1.00、5.00 mmol/L)的作用同样表现双重性,其中0.20 mmol/L SNP对膜结构及Rubisco保护作用最明显.上述结果证实,低浓度外源NO可延缓小麦叶片的老化过程,并可能与其降低叶片活性氧(ROS)水平及缓解氧化损伤有关.     

Reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide are involved in ABA inhibition of stomatal opening

Although nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are essential signalling molecules required for mediation of abscisic acid (ABA)-induced stomatal closure, it is not known whether these molecules also mediate the ABA inhibition of stomatal opening. In this study, we investigated the role of NO and ROS in the ABA inhibition of stomatal opening in Vicia faba. ABA induced both NO and ROS synthesis, and the NO scavenger reduced the ABA inhibition of stomatal opening. Exogenous NO and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) also inhibited stomatal opening, indicating that NO and ROS are involved in the inhibition signalling process. An inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) reversed the ABA inhibition of stomatal opening. Either the NO scavenger or the NOS inhibitor also reversed the process in the H2O2 inhibition of stomatal opening. We found that in the ABA inhibition of stomatal opening, NO is downstream of ROS in the signalling process, and NO is synthesized by a NOS-like enzyme.     

干旱胁迫下紫花苜蓿幼苗非结构性碳水化合物代谢对NO的响应

以紫花苜蓿（Medicago sativa）为材料,采用盆栽试验方法,用聚乙二醇（PEG-6000）作为渗透介质模拟干旱胁迫,外源喷施NO供体硝普钠,NO清除剂（carboxy-PTIO,cPTIO）,对紫花苜蓿幼苗叶片、根系中非结构性碳水化合物含量及相关酶活性的变化进行研究,探讨NO对紫花苜蓿耐旱机制的作用。结果表明：外源NO促进了紫花苜蓿叶片中淀粉的分解、根系中淀粉的积累,提高叶片及根系中可溶性糖（蔗糖、果糖和葡萄糖）含量,降低了渗透势,促进细胞吸水,缓解干旱造成的损伤。此外,外源NO能提高干旱胁迫下紫花苜蓿叶片中蔗糖合成酶（SS）、酸性转化酶（AI）和中性转化酶（NI）活性,降低了蔗糖磷酸合成酶（SPS）的活性,提高根系中SS、SPS和转化酶活性,使蔗糖的合成与分解处于高水平的动态平衡,增强了紫花苜蓿的抗旱性。而NO清除剂cPTIO则会不同程度的抑制紫花苜蓿幼苗中非结构性碳水化合物（NSC）及其相关酶活性。因此,NO可以通过调控NSC的代谢响应干旱胁迫,缓解干旱胁迫造成的不利影响,在紫花苜蓿的抗旱中扮演着重要的角色。     

Effect of drought and rewatering on the cellular status and antioxidant response of Medicago truncatula plants

Effects of water stress on plants have been well-documented. However, the combined responses to drought and rewatering and their underlying mechanisms are relatively unknown. The present study attempts to describe spatiotemporal alterations in the physiology and cellular status of Medicago truncatula tissues that result from and subsequently follow a period of moderate water deficit. Physiological processes and cellular damage levels were monitored in roots and leaves by determining lipid peroxidation levels, as well as nitric oxide and hydrogen peroxide content, further supported by stomatal conductance and chlorophyll fluorescence measurements in leaves. During water stress, cells in both organs displayed increased damage levels and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species content, while leaves showed reduced stomatal conductance. Furthermore, both tissues demonstrated increased proline content. Upon rewatering, plants recovered displaying readings similar to pre-stress control conditions. Furthermore, molecular analysis of antioxidant gene expression by quantitative real-time RT-PCR revealed differential spatiotemporal regulation in a number of genes examined (including catalase, cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase, copper/zinc and iron superoxide dismutase and alternative oxidase). Overall, M. truncatula plants demonstrated increased sensitivity to drought-induced oxidative damage; however, this was reversed following rewatering indicating a great elasticity in the plant''s capacity to cope with free oxygen and nitrogen radicals.Key words: drought stress, antioxidants, cellular damage, medicago, proline, hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species     

一氧化氮对小麦叶片老化过程的调节

用不同浓度(0．05、0．10、0．20、0．50mmol／L)的外源一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)供体硝普钠(sodium nitroprusside,SNP)处理正常生长小麦(Triticum aestivum L．)叶片(二叶一心期时全展第一叶)。结果显示低浓度SNP(0．05、0．10、0．20mmol／L)可以明显降低叶片H2O2和MDA的水平,其中0．10mmol／L SNP的作用最为明显;而较高浓度SNP(0．50mmol／L)则作用相反。进一步采用0．10mmol／L SNP处理不同叶位的小麦叶片(四叶一心期),结果表明低浓度NO对不同老化阶段中叶片的H2O2、O2^7和MDA累积都有缓解作用,并明显减缓叶绿素、可溶性叶蛋白尤其是Rubisco的降解,有效延缓了叶片的老化进程。在完整叶绿体体外老化实验中也发现,不同浓度SNP(0．05、0．10、0．20、0．50、1．00、5．00mmol／L)的作用同样表现双重性,其中0．20mmol／L SNP对膜结构及Rubisco保护作用最明显。上述结果证实,低浓度外源NO可延缓小麦叶片的老化过程,并可能与其降低叶片活性氧(ROS)水平及缓解氧化损伤有关。
