不同营养因子对新疆紫草悬浮培养细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物形成的影响

报道了不同碳源、维生素、氨基酸、钙盐及肌醇对新疆紫草悬浮培养细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物形成的影响。蔗糖是最适碳源、最佳浓度为３％。Ｂ族维生素对细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物形成的促进效果不大。酪氨酸以及甘氨酸会抑制产物的形成;而１０－５ｍｏｌ／ｌ的Ｌ－苯丙氨酸以及１０－７—１０－６ｍｏｌ／ｌ维生素Ｃ可明显提高紫草宁衍生物的含量及产量。肌醇对细胞生长的影响不大,但２００ｍｇ／ｌ肌醇可促进产物的形成。适于细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物形成的钙源分别为３３２ｍｇ／ｌＣａＣｌ２·２Ｈ２Ｏ和１４００ｍｇ／ｌＣａ（Ｎｏ３）２·４Ｈ２Ｏ。文末列出了改良的生长培养基及其配方。     

pH值、激素对新疆紫草悬浮培养细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物合成的影响

报道了不同ｐＨ值、激素对新疆紫草悬浮培养细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物合成的影响。结果表明,新疆紫草细胞具有自我调节其培养液ｐＨ值的功能。适合于细胞生长及紫草宁衍生物形成的ｐＨ值为５．６±０．４０。ＢＡＰ、２,４－Ｄ、ＮＡＡ或ＩＢＡ对细胞生长无显著的促进作用,且都会抑制紫草宁衍生物的形成。在生长培养基中添加１．０ｍｇ／ｌ　ＩＡＡ和０．５ｍｇ／ｌＫＴ可促进细胞生长,而在生产培养基中附加０．１ｍｇ／ｌＫＴ和０．７５─１．０ｍｇ／ｌＩＡＡ则有利于紫草宁衍生物含量及产量的提高。

新疆紫草细胞悬浮培养过程研究

新疆紫草细胞生长和紫草素合成之间属非生长偶联型,所以采用二步培养法研究悬浮培养过程。新疆紫草细胞悬浮培养的生长周期约为21 d,紫草素合成周期约为16 d。新疆紫草细胞生长阶段培养液的电导率与生物量呈线性负相关,随着生物量的增加,培养液的电导率降低。因此,可以通过测量电导率来预测培养体系中生物量的变化情况。细胞生长过程中硝酸盐、铵盐和可溶性糖的消耗与生物量的变化具有很好的线性相关性,基于硝酸盐、铵盐和可溶性糖的细胞收率系数分别为8.64、104.3和0.68 g/g。

Enhancement of shikonin production in single- and two-phase suspension cultures of Lithospermum erythrorhizon cells using low-energy ultrasound

This work demonstrates the use of low-energy ultrasound (US) to enhance secondary metabolite production in plant cell cultures. Suspension culture of Lithospermum erythrorhizon cells was exposed to low-power US (power density < or = 113.9 mW/cm(3)) for short periods (1-8 min). The US exposure significantly stimulated the shikonin biosynthesis of the cells, and at certain US doses, increased the volumetric shikonin yield by about 60%-70%. Meanwhile, the shikonin excreted from the cells was increased from 20% to 65%-70%, due partially to an increase in the cell membrane permeability by sonication. With combined use of US treatment and in situ product extraction by an organic solvent, or the two-phase culture, the volumetric shikonin yield was increased more than two- to threefold. Increasing in the number of US exposures during the culture process usually resulted in negative effects on shikonin yield but slight stimulation of shikonin excretion. US at relatively high energy levels caused slight cell growth depression (maximum 9% decrease in dry cell weight). Two key enzymes for the secondary metabolite biosynthesis of cells, phenylalanine ammonia lyase and p-hydroxybenzoic acid geranyltransferase, were found to be stimulated by the US. The US stimulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis was attributed to the metabolic activity of cells activated by US, and more specifically, the defense responses of plant cells to the mechanical stress of US irradiation.

Selection of Cell Lines with High Productivity of Shikonin Derivatives by Protoplast Culture of Lithospermum erythrorhizon Cells

We selected high-yield cell lines, using protoplast culture of Lithospermum erythrorhizon cells. Three cell lines having different shikonin productivities were used as parent cells for the selection, and cell lines with high productivity were obtained efficiently in every case. The best cell line had 6.45 g shikonin/g inoculum/23 days of production which was almost 1.5 times higher than that of the original cell line. The productivities of protoplast-derived cell lines were distributed widely and their average productivity was similar to the original one. The subculture of such a protoplast-derived cell line for eight months showed that its shikonin productivity was stabler than the original cell line.     

Effect of growth hormone modifications on shikonin production fromLithospermum erythrorhizon cell cultures within situ extraction

Summary The effect of growth hormone modifications on shikonin production was studied with the cell cultures ofLithospermum erythrorhizon. The cells grown in SH–H or SHA medium were effective for shikonin production in M–9 medium and maximum shikonin concentrations reached 43 and 63 mg/L, respectively, within situ extraction. In the case of the cells grown in SHA medium, induction time required for shikonin production was very short and the maximum shikonin concentration was obtained within 6 days.     

Enhanced shikonin production from Lithospermum erythrorhizon by in situ extraction and calcium alginate immobilization

Plant cell cultures of Lithospermum erythrorhizon were carried out to produce shikonin by in situ extraction and cell immobilization in calcium alginate bead in shake flask cultures. In situ product extraction and cell immobilization enhanced shikonin production and facilitated product recovery. In situ extraction by n-hexadecane and cell immobilization by calcium alginate gave higher specific shikonin productivities of 7.4 and 2.5 times, respectively, than those from the cultures of free cells without extraction. Simultaneous use of both techniques increased specific and volumetric productivities of shikonin 25- and 15-fold, respectively. In calcium alginate immobilized cell cultures, n-hexadecane addition at an early stage (before 15 days) was effective for shikonin production, and solvent addition after 15 days of the culture significantly reduced shikonin production. Higher numbers of plant cell immobilized bead inoculation did not increase shikonin production and sucrose consumption. Most of the produced shikonin was dissolved in the solvent layer.     

Production of shikonin derivatives by cell suspension cultures of Lithospermum erythrorhizon

A two-layer culture method was established that uses an organic solvent to remove shikonin derivatives produced on cell surfaces during the culture of suspension cells of Lithospermum erythrorhizon. Some paraffins and a fatty acid ester made suitable solvents, whereas olefins and aromatic solvents extensively inhibited the production of shikonin derivatives. The yield of derivatives increased with an increase in the carbon chain length of the n-paraffin used as the solvent and when the oxygen supply was sufficient it reached the value found for the ordinary culture method.     

Shikonin derivative formation on the stem of cultured shoots in Lithospermum erythrorhizon

Lithospermum erythrorhizon , which are capable of producing red pigments, have been established. The red pigments were formed on the stems of L. erythrorhizon shoots cultured both on solid and in liquid media without phytohormones at 25 °C in the dark. Thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography and ¹ H nuclear magnetic resonance analyses revealed that the red pigments which accumulated on the cultured shoots were shikonin derivatives. The effects of various basal media and phytohormones (indole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-butyric acid and kinetin) on the growth and the formation of shikonin derivatives were investigated. When the shoots were cultured on Murashige and Skoog solid medium, the addition of kinetin remarkably enhanced shikonin derivative accumulation in the shoots. However, these effects of kinetin were not observed in the liquid culture when cultured in Gamborg B5 medium. The maximum content of shikonin derivatives (2.3% as dry weight, ca. 1.5 mg/100 ml flask) was observed in the shoots cultured in phytohormone-free B5 liquid medium for 5 weeks.

Molecular cloning and characterization of a cDNA encoding a novel apoplastic protein preferentially expressed in a shikonin-producing callus strain of Lithospermum erythrorhizon

A cDNA (LEPS-2) encoding a novel cell wall protein was cloned from shikonin-producing callus tissues of Lithospermum erythrorhizon by differential display between a shikonin-producing culture strain and a non-producing strain. The LEPS-2 cDNA encoded a polypeptide of 184 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibited no significant homology with known proteins. Expression of LEPS-2 gene as well as accumulation of LEPS-2 protein was highly correlated with shikonin production in L. erythrorhizon cells in culture. In the intact plant, expression of LEPS-2 was detected only in the roots where shikonin pigments accumulated. Cell fractionation experiments and immunocytochemical analysis showed that the protein was localized in the apoplast fraction of the cell walls. The shikonin pigments were also stored on the cell walls as oil droplets. These results indicate that expression of the LEPS-2 is closely linked with shikonin biosynthesis and the LEPS-2 protein may be involved in the intra-cell wall trapping of shikonin pigments.
