三唑酮对绿豆幼苗叶片衰老的延缓作用

三唑酮处理可提高离体绿豆（ＰｈａｓｅｏｌｕｓｒａｄｉａｔｕｓＬ．）幼苗叶片叶绿素和蛋白质含量。叶片衰老过程中超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡｓＡＰＯＤ）活性及抗坏血酸（ＡｓＡ）和还原型谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）含量降低。２０ｍｇ／Ｌ三唑酮可提高ＰＯＤ、ＡｓＡＰＯＤ活性和ＡｓＡ、ＧＳＨ含量,对ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ活性无影响。丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量在叶片衰老过程中提高,并与ＰＯＤ、ＡｓＡＰＯＤ活性和ＡｓＡ、ＧＳＨ含量呈显著负相关,三唑酮可降低ＭＤＡ含量。表明三唑酮有提高植物对膜脂过氧化作用的保护能力,延缓叶片的衰老作用。     

人为干扰对亚热带森林木本植物叶片抗氧化能力的影响

旅游、宗教活动及工厂废气等不同类型的人为干扰引起亚热带森林木本植物荷木和马尾松叶片膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量明显增加,超氧歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ）活性和谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）的含量则减少。荷木叶片的ＭＤＡ高于怪尾构,而ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ、ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ活性和ＧＳＨ含量却低于马尾松。人为干扰使荷木和马尾松叶片蛋白总量降低,酪蛋白水解酶、氨肽酶和内肽     

镍对离体玉米叶片衰老的调节作用

本文研究了镍对离体玉米叶片衰老的调节作用。研究结果表明,玉米叶片在衰老过程中,超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡsＳ－ＰＯＤ）活性和抗坏血酸（ＡsA)含量显著降低,超氧阴离子自由基（Ｏ^-2)产生率显著增加,脂质过氧化作用加剧,丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量升高,细胞质膜透性增大。而１０^-2、１０^-3mol.L^-1Ni^2 处理能增强上述保护酶活性和抗氧化剂ＡsA的含量从而能减轻细胞膜脂过氧化使用。２０^-3、１０^-2mol.L^-1Ni^2 处理能显著延缓蛋白质和叶绿素 降解。因此镍能延缓离体玉米叶片的衰老,尤其是以１０^-2mol.L^-1Ni^2 对衰老的延缓作用更大。动态测定结果表明,１０^-2mol.L^-1Ni^2 处理能使衰老滞后２－天。     

作物细胞耐旱保护酶系统对外磁场的反应

作物细胞的耐旱保护酶由过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ） 、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ） 和超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ） 组成。对小麦种子施加０．１Ｔ 的磁场处理使其萌发时细胞中ＰＯＤ 活性提高,幼苗根系和叶片细胞中的ＰＯＤ 活性也发生了变化,叶片的ＰＯＤ 同工酶谱中多出了两个酶带。使用蛋白质合成抑制剂和转录抑制剂发现,ＰＯＤ 活性提高的原因是磁场处理促进了ＰＯＤ 合成的翻译过程。干旱胁迫下,经磁场处理的幼苗叶片细胞中的ＰＯＤ、ＣＡＴ 和ＳＯＤ 活性均比对照高,膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ ＭＤＡ） 含量比对照低,表明保护酶系统的功能有所增强。     

抗坏血酸对沙打旺原生质体分离和培养中膜损伤及相关酶活性的影响

抗坏血酸（ＡＳＡ） 能减轻沙打旺原生质体的褐化,改善原生质体的培养状况。ＡＳＡ的作用可能与它增强原生质体抗过氧化能力有关。酶解处理诱导原生质体超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ） 和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＰＸ）活性升高,但培养过程使ＡＰＸ 活性明显下降,原生质体清除过氧化物能力减弱,膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ ＭＤＡ） 积累增加,膜发生损伤。向酶溶液和培养基中添加ＡＳＡ 可显著提高ＳＯＤ 尤其是ＡＰＸ 活性,减轻膜脂过氧化,增强原生质体的存活力,促进原生质体的分裂和细胞克隆的形成。所有处理中过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ） 活性变化不大,表明它在原生质体清除过氧化物过程中不具主要作用。     

低温胁迫下红松幼苗活性氧的产生及保护酶的变化

在不同低温胁迫时间下,对红松（Ｐｉｎｕｓ ｋｏｒａｉｅｎｓｉｓ Ｓｉｅｂ．ｅｔ．Ｚｕｃｃ）幼苗针叶中Ｈ２Ｏ２、Ｏ＾－．２、膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）、组织自动化氧化速率及保护酶超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＰ）的动态变化过程进行了测定。结果表明,随着低温胁迫时间的延长,Ｏ＾－．２产生速率和Ｈ２Ｏ２含量先上升后下降;ＭＤＡ的含量呈波     

NaCl胁迫对螺旋藻生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响

在０１％～５．０％ＮａＣｌ浓度范围的培养基中培养极大螺旋藻（Ｓｐｉｒｕｌｉｎａｍａｘｉｍａ）,发现ＮａＣｌ浓度高于２．０％时螺旋藻生长受到明显抑制。培养７天后测定超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）活性和丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量。结果表明：在盐胁迫下,ＳＯＤ酶活性升高;抗坏血酸过氧化物酶和过氧化氢酶活性在低盐胁迫下活性升高,高盐胁迫下抗坏血酸过氧化物酶活性迅速降低,过氧化物酶则完全失活;ＭＤＡ含量先随盐胁迫程度增加而降低,后随盐胁迫的进一步增强恢复至对照水平。     

水杨酸对黄瓜叶片抗氧化剂酶系的调节作用

分析了水杨酸（ＳＡ）对黄瓜（ＣｕｃｕｍｉｓｓａｔｉｖｕｓＬ．）叶片抗氧化剂酶系活性及活性氧水平的调节作用。不同浓度的ＳＡ（０．５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、２．５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）均能显著地提高被处理叶片超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）和过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性,而且还能诱导同株的非处理叶片中ＳＯＤ和ＰＯＤ活性增加。用１ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＳＡ处理第一片真叶,在处理后６～７２ｈ,ＰＯＤ活性增加了２２％～６７％,同株非处理的第二片真叶ＰＯＤ活性增加了１４％～８６％,但是,在ＳＡ处理后３ｈ之前以及处理９６ｈ之后,ＰＯＤ活性没有变化。ＳＡ能够显著降低超氧物阴离子含量和提高过氧化氢水平,但它对过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）活性的抑制作用很弱,表明ＳＡ提高体内过氧化氢含量的原因主要是通过提高ＳＯＤ活性而不是抑制ＣＡＴ活性。同工酶分析表明,ＳＡ不能诱导新的ＳＯＤ同工酶,但可以诱导新的ＰＯＤ同工酶。     

镉对小麦幼苗脂质过氧化和保护酶活性的影响

小麦幼苗经镉胁迫后,随着镉浓度的增高,叶征和根系中的膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）的含量和过氧物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性明显升高,超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）活性也有所提高。叶片中ＭＤＡ积累量和ＳＯＤ活性都高于根,而ＰＯＤ活性则是根高于叶片。随幼苗生长时间延长,叶片和根中的ＭＤＡ积累量增加,而ＳＯＤ活性却降低。     

多胺对水稻CMS系及其保持系幼穗蛋白质、核酸和活性氧代谢的影响

用ＤＡｒｇ＋ ＭＧＢＧ 处理保持系, 降低花粉可育度, 并使其幼穗中蛋白质、ＤＮＡ 和ＲＮＡ含量以及蛋白酶、ＲＮＡ 酶和ＤＮＡ 酶活性下降,使Ｏ－·２ 生成速率和ＭＤＡ 含量上升。Ｐｕｔ＋ Ｓｐｄ ＋ Ｓｐｍ 可消除或部分消除ＤＡｒｇ ＋ＭＧＢＧ的上述效应（ 对酶活性的影响除外） 。ＤＡｒｇ ＋ ＭＧＢＧ 也使ＰＯＤ、ＳＯＤ 和ＣＡＴ活性上升, 但是,多胺只能降低抑制剂对ＰＯＤ 的刺激作用。用Ｐｕｔ＋ Ｓｐｄ ＋ Ｓｐｍ 处理不育系, 使花粉可育度轻度提高, 并使其幼穗蛋白质、ＤＮＡ和ＲＮＡ 含量略有上升,使蛋白酶、ＤＮＡ酶和ＲＮＡ 酶活性、Ｏ－·２ 生成速率、ＭＤＡ 含量、ＳＯＤ 和ＣＡＴ活性下降, 使ＰＯＤ 活性上升     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae

The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous. They lack raphide idioblasts. All are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules. The Petrosavieae are marked by the presence of septal glands and incomplete syncarpy. Tepals and stamens adhere to the ovary in the Hewardieae and the Petrosavieae but not in the Tricyrteae. Two vascular bundles occur in the stamens of the Hewartlieae and Tricyrtis latifolia. Ventral bundles in the upper part of the ovary of the Hewardieae are continuous with compound septal bundles and placental bundles in the lower part. Putative ventral bundles occur in the alternate position in the Tricyrteae and putative placental bundles in the opposite. position in the Petrosavieae. The dichtomously branched stigma in each carpel of the Tricyrteae is supplied by a bifurcated dorsal bundle.     

Entwicklungsgeschichte und Ultrastruktur von Pollenkitt und Exine bei nahe verwandten entomophilen und anemophilen Angiospermensippen derAlismataceae,Liliaceae, Juncaceae,Cyperaceae, Poaceae undAraceae

Some closely related members of the monocotyledonous familiesAlismataceae, Liliaceae, Juncaceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae andAraceae with variable modes of pollination (insect- and wind-pollination) were studied in relation to the ultrastructure of pollenkitt and exine (amount, consistency and distribution of pollenkitt on the surface of pollen grains). The character syndromes of pollen cementing in entomophilous, anemophilous and intermediate (ambophilous or amphiphilous) monocotyledons are the same in principal as in dicotyledons. Comparing present with former results one can summarize: 1) The pollenkitt is always produced in the same manner by the anther tapetum in all angiosperm sub-classes. 2) The variable stickiness of entomophilous and anemophilous pollen always depends on the particular distribution and consistency of the pollenkitt, but not its amount on the pollen surface. 3) The mostly dry and powdery pollen of anemophilous plants always contains a variable amount of inactive pollenkitt in its exine cavities. 4) A step-by step change of the pollen cementing syndrome can be observed from entomophily towards anemophily. 5) From the omnipresence of pollenkitt in all wind-pollinated angiosperms studied one can conclude that the ancestors of anemophilous angiosperms probably have been zoophilous (i.e. entomophilous) throughout.
