大气CO2与O3浓度升高对毛竹叶片膜脂过氧化和抗氧化系统的影响

以盆栽一年生毛竹为材料,利用开顶式气室模拟大气O3和CO2浓度升高情景,分析毛竹叶片细胞膜脂过氧化、抗氧化酶(SOD、CAT、POD和APX)活性和渗透调节物质(可溶性糖和可溶性蛋白)含量的响应规律,为气候变化背景下的竹林适应性管理提供理论支撑.结果表明:(1)短期(30 d)高浓度O3(92～106 nL-L-1)胁迫能刺激毛竹叶片抗氧化酶活性和渗透调节物质含量显著提高,清除活性氧能力增强,并未出现细胞膜脂过氧化现象,即毛竹对短期高浓度O3具有较强的适应性;但长期(90 d)O3胁迫条件下,毛竹叶片抗氧化酶活性显著降低,叶片细胞膜脂过氧化程度加剧,膜结构破坏,发生严重的氧化伤害.(2)短期高浓度CO2(685～730 μmol·mol-1)处理总体上对毛竹叶片细胞膜脂过氧化和抗氧化酶系统活性影响并不明显;而长期高浓度CO2处理能一定程度上增强毛竹的抗氧化能力和渗透调节功能,减轻氧化损伤,体现了对毛竹的保护效应.(3)高浓度O3和CO2复合作用下,相对于单一高浓度O3胁迫,毛竹叶片能够维持较高的抗氧化酶活性和渗透调节物质含量,有效地调节活性氧产生与清除间的平衡,细胞膜脂过氧化程度变化不明显,说明高浓度CO2可在一定程度上缓解高浓度O3对毛竹所造成的生理伤害.     

土荆芥挥发油对蚕豆根尖细胞的氧化损伤

土荆芥是一种入侵植物,对周围植物具有较强的化感潜力.采用培养皿土培法和培养皿滤纸法,分别模拟土荆芥挥发油通过淋溶和挥发两条途径对蚕豆根尖细胞膜脂过氧化和抗氧化酶活性的影响,并分析了挥发油诱导的细胞凋亡.结果表明:在培养皿土培和培养皿滤纸处理中,在处理前期(24 h),蚕豆根尖细胞超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶和过氧化氢酶的活性均随土荆芥挥发油剂量的增大呈先升高后降低的趋势;根尖丙二醛含量随处理时间的延长和处理剂量的增大呈上升趋势.在处理中期(48 h)和处理后期(72 h),出现了典型的DNALadder条带,表明土荆芥挥发油可诱导蚕豆根尖细胞凋亡,并且随着挥发油剂量的增大和处理时间的延长,细胞凋亡程度加剧.土荆芥挥发油可以通过淋溶和挥发两种途径作用于周围植物,使受体植物的膜脂过氧化程度加剧,抗氧化酶活性受到抑制,诱导根尖细胞发生氧化损伤和细胞凋亡,从而抑制周围植物生长.而且,当挥发油以淋溶途径进入土壤时,蚕豆根尖抗氧化酶活性整体较高,DNA损伤程度较小,土荆芥挥发油通过挥发途径的化感作用大于通过淋溶途径.     

外源一氧化氮提高白灵侧耳菌丝耐热性生化途径分析

为了探索外源一氧化氮（NO）提高食用菌菌丝体耐热性的生化途径,以白灵侧耳Pleurotus eryngii var. tuoliensis菌株CCMSSC 00489为材料,通过测定高温胁迫下外源添加硝普钠（sodium nitroprusside,SNP,NO供体）后,菌丝体内超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、过氧化氢酶（CAT）、谷胱甘肽还原酶（GR）和过氧化物酶（POD）等4个抗氧化酶活性的变化,研究外源NO在高温胁迫响应中对抗氧化酶的影响。试验表明,高温胁迫致使菌丝体内TBARS含量升高,膜脂过氧化加剧。在正常温度培养（CK）下,外源添加SNP无显著缓解膜脂过氧化的效果,而高温胁迫条件下缓解效果显著,高温胁迫6h和12h,TBARS含量较对照（未添加）分别下降31.5%和25%。研究表明,抗氧化酶类对外源NO的响应不同。在有外源添加SNP的高温胁迫条件下,菌丝体内的SOD、CAT和GR活性随处理时间的延长而显著增强,在处理72h达到最高,分别是对照（0h）的1.73、7.29和4.95倍。其中CAT是高温胁迫响应的主要抗氧化酶类,其活力可以mmol/L·min^-1·mg^-1 of protein计量,而其他种类的活力均仅以μmol/L·min^-1·mg^-1 of protein计量。在试验条件下,这些抗氧化酶类活性的提高与TBARS含量的降低相呼应,表明外源NO通过提高SOD、CAT、GR的活性降低高温胁迫下的活性氧水平,缓解其氧化损伤,提高菌丝体耐热性。POD活性在外源添加SNP的高温胁迫条件下显著降低。

The role of anthocyanin in photoprotection and its relationship with the xanthophyll cycle and the antioxidant system in apple peel depends on the light conditions

The synthesis of anthocyanin, the xanthophyll cycle, the antioxidant system and the production of active oxygen species (AOS) were compared between red and non‐red apple cultivars, in response to either long‐term sunlight exposure (high light intensity) during fruit development, or to exposure of bagged fruits to lower light intensity late in fruit development. During fruit development of red and non‐red apples, the xanthophyll cycle pool size decreased much more in red apple peel late in development. With accumulation of AOS induced by long‐term sunlight exposure, enhancement of the antioxidant system was found. However, this change became significantly lower in red apple than non‐red apple as fruit developed, which might serve to accelerate the anthocyanin synthesis in red apple peel. When, late in fruit development, bagged fruits were exposed to sunlight, the accumulation of AOS was lower in red apple peel than in non‐red peel. This could be due to the higher anthocyanin concentration in the red peels. Meanwhile, compared with that in non‐red cultivar, the xanthophyll cycle and the antioxidant system in red apple peel were protected first but then down‐regulated by its higher anthocyanin concentration during sunlight exposure. In conclusions, red and non‐red apples peel possess different photoprotective mechanisms under high light conditions. The relationship between anthocyanin synthesis and the xanthophyll cycle, and the antioxidant system, depends on the light conditions that fruit undergoes.     

Sunburn of Apple Fruit: Historical Background,Recent Advances and Future Perspectives

Sunburn is a physiological disorder of apples and other fruit species caused by excess solar radiation. Damage occurs in practically all growing regions of the world, causing severe crop loss every year. Direct factors required for induction of the three currently-known types of sunburn (i.e., sunburn necrosis, sunburn browning, and photooxidative sunburn) include excess radiant heating and/or exposure to excess sunlight. Several other factors (e.g., relative humidity, wind velocity, acclimation of fruit, and cultural management practices), which alone cannot induce sunburn damage, indirectly influence the induction of sunburn by interacting with the direct factors to influence the appearance and severity of the symptoms. Sunburn affects apple fruit at many levels; it causes structural and morphological changes, alters pigment composition, influences adaptive mechanisms, impairs photosynthesis, and consequently decreases fruit quality. Fruits employ multiple physiological and biochemical mechanisms as complex defense systems to minimize damage. Photoprotective pigments, antioxidant enzymes and metabolites, heat-shock proteins, and the xanthophyll cycle help mitigate damage, but are often inadequate under field conditions to fully protect from sunburn. Quality loss significantly affects postharvest behavior, marketing and consumer acceptance of fruit. Internal fruit quality (e.g., firmness, soluble solids concentration, and titratable acidity) is affected by sunburn, and changes in these traits continue during cold storage. Sunburn-related disorders (e.g., sunburn scald in ‘Granny Smith’ and ‘Fuji’ stain) can appear in cold storage. There are several methods with various modes of action (e.g., climate ameliorating techniques, and sunburn suppressants) available to growers to decrease sunburn under field conditions. At the end of this review, the potential impact of a changing climate on sunburn incidence is considered, as both UV-B radiation and temperature are projected to change. Finally, several topics that need further research are discussed.     

光照强度对苹果果实表面温度变化的影响

光照强度对于果实温度的变化具有重要影响。一天中 ,日落后和日出前 ,果实表面温度都接近气温。树冠外围暴露果实表面温度主要来源于气温和由于吸收光能后转化成热能所增加的温度。当光照强度较低和持续时间较短时 ,光照对果实表面温度的影响较小。不同月份光致果实温度增加的幅度有所不同 ,6～ 10月日光致最大果实温度的变化幅度范围为 14 .4 6～ 18.98℃。光照强度与光致果实增温具有极显著相关 ,其回归方程为 Y=0 .0 0 88x 6 .0 97,r=0 .4 3382 * * 。遮荫由于减少了果实表面接受的光能 ,因而可以明显降低果实表面的温度     

Individual phenolic response and peroxidase activity in peel of differently sun-exposed apples in the period favorable for sunburn occurrence

Extreme weather events like high solar radiation can cause stress in apple fruits (Malus domestica Borkh.). The aim of the study was to make a screening of individual phenols and peroxidase activity in apple peel as a response to sunburn and different sun-exposures in the period when weather conditions are suitable for sunburn occurrence. Apple fruits of ‘Golden Delicious’ and ‘Braeburn’ were sampled. Fruit temperature and color were measured prior HPLC–MS² and peroxidase activity analyses. Sunburned peel was darker and more yellow-red in comparison to healthy peel, which appeared yellow-green. Fruit temperature, total as well as individual flavonols and dihydrochalcones, total hydroxycinnamics and perixodase activity were highest in sunburned peel in comparison with healthy sun-exposed peel, furthermore both were different than shaded sides of both fruits and peel of apples inside the tree crown; moreover in sunburned peel dihydrochalcones were determined for the first time. Chlorogenic acid was up to 2.5 times higher, 3-hydroxy-phloretin-2′-O-xyloglucoside was up to 10 times higher and quercetin-3-galactoside was up to 33 times higher in sunburned peel, comparing to shaded sided peels. Flavanols did not show a distinct pattern. A deeper insight in phenolic response against environmental stress caused by high solar radiation and high air temperatures has been made.     

Antidiabetic potential of Citrus sinensis and Punica granatum peel extracts in alloxan treated male mice

An investigation on the effects of four different concentrations of peel extract from Citrus sinensis (CS) or Punica granatum (PG) in male mice revealed the maximum glucose lowering and antiperoxidative activities at 25 mg/kg of CS and 200 mg/kg of PG. In a separate experiment their potential was evaluated with respect to the regulation of alloxan induced diabetes mellitus. While a single dose of alloxan (120 mg/kg) increased the serum levels of glucose and alpha-amylase activity, rate of water consumption and lipid peroxidation (LPO) in hepatic, cardiac and renal tissues with a parallel decrease in serum insulin level, administration of 25 mg/kg of CS or 200 mg/kg of PG was found to normalize all the adverse changes induced by alloxan, revealing the antidiabetic and anti peroxidative potential of test fruit peel extracts. Subsequent phytochemical analysis indicated that the high content of total polyphenols in the test peels might be related to the antidiabetic and antiperoxidative effects of the test peels.     

Effects of high temperature coupled with high light on the balance between photooxidation and photoprotection in the sun-exposed peel of apple

The sun-exposed peel of 'Gala' apple with or without sunburn was compared in terms of photooxidation and photoprotection, and a controlled experiment was conducted to probe the initial responses of PSII to high light and high temperature. The content of carotenoids, lutein and xanthophylls on a chlorophyll basis was higher in the sunburned peel although they were lower expressed on a peel area basis. Significant loss of beta-carotene and neoxanthin was observed relative to chlorophylls in the sunburned peel. O(2) evolution rates and the activity of key enzymes in the Calvin cycle were lower in the sunburned peel, but the activity of these enzymes decreased to a lesser extent than the O(2) evolution rates. The activity of antioxidant enzymes in the ascorbate-glutathione cycle and the level of total ascorbate, total glutathione, and reduced glutathione were higher in the sunburned peel. However, the sunburned peel had higher H(2)O(2) and malondialdehyde contents. Fruit peels treated with high temperature (45 degrees C) alone showed a clear "K" step in their chlorophyll fluorescence transients whereas high temperature coupled with high light (1,600 mumol m(-2) s(-1)) led to the disappearance of the "K" step and a further decrease in F (V)/F (M) (similar to what was observed in the sunburned peel). We conclude that high temperature coupled with high light damages the PSII complexes at both the donor and acceptor sides. Although both the xanthophyll cycle and the antioxidant system are up-regulated in response to the photooxidative stress, this up-regulation does not provide enough protection against the photooxidation.     

Inhibition of Oxidative Stress and Lipid Peroxidation by Anthocyanins from Defatted Canarium odontophyllum Pericarp and Peel Using In Vitro Bioassays

Canarium odontophyllum, also known as CO, is a highly nutritious fruit. Defatted parts of CO fruit are potent sources of nutraceutical. This study aimed to determine oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation effects of defatted CO pericarp and peel extracts using in vitro bioassays. Cell cytotoxic effect of the CO pericarp and peel extracts were also evaluated using HUVEC and Chang liver cell lines. The crude extracts of defatted CO peel and pericarp showed cytoprotective effects in t-BHP and 40% methanol-induced cell death. The crude extracts also showed no toxic effect to Chang liver cell line. Using CD36 ELISA, NAD⁺ and LDL inhibition assays, inhibition of oxidative stress were found higher in the crude extract of defatted CO peel compared to the pericarp extract. Hemoglobin and LDL oxidation assays revealed both crude extracts had significantly reduced lipid peroxidation as compared to control. TBARS values among defatted CO pericarp, peel, and cyanidin-3-glucoside showed no significant differences for hemoglobin and LDL oxidation assays. The protective effects of defatted CO parts, especially its peel is related to the presence of high anthocyanin that potentially offers as a pharmaceutical ingredient for cardioprotection.
