缺磷对烟草悬浮细胞交替呼吸途径的影响及其与活性氧积累的关系

用两个耐低磷能力差异显著的烟草悬浮细胞系,研究了缺磷胁迫对交替呼吸途径的影响及其与活性氧积累的关系.牛津细胞耐缺磷胁迫能力明显高于K326.缺磷降低了K326交替途径的容量及实际运行量,但对牛津的影响不大.无论在缺磷还是正常磷水平下,牛津细胞交替途径容量和实际运行量都比K326高.用分离的线粒体进一步证实了上述结果.缺磷胁迫可以提高AOX的蛋白表达量,但品种间差异不明显.缺磷胁迫下K326细胞中的超氧阴离子积累量远高于牛津细胞.由此认为交替途径可能在细胞耐低磷中起作用.

Crosstalk between elicitor-induced cell death and cell cycle regulation in tobacco BY-2 cells

The molecular links between cell cycle control and the regulation of programmed cell death are largely unknown in plants. Here we studied the relationship between the cell cycle and elicitor-induced cell death using synchronized tobacco BY-2 cells. Flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy of nuclear DNA, and RNA gel-blot analyses of cell cycle-related genes revealed that the proteinaceous elicitor cryptogein induced cell cycle arrest at the G1 or G2 phase before the induction of cell death. Furthermore, the patterns of cell death induction and defence-related genes were different in different phases of the cell cycle. Constitutive treatment with cryptogein induced cell cycle arrest and cell death at the G1 or G2 phase. With transient treatment for 2 h, cell cycle arrest and cell death were only induced by treatment with the elicitor during the S or G1 phase. By contrast, the elicitor-induced production of reactive oxygen species was observed during all phases of the cell cycle. These results indicate that although recognition of the elicitor signal is cell cycle-independent, the induction of cell cycle arrest and cell death depends on the phase of the cell cycle.     

在自然衰老和诱导条件下棉花悬浮细胞程序性死亡的发生

Cotton suspension cells grew well in the MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L 2,4 D and 0.1 mg/L KT. Senescence occurred when the cells were unsubcultured. The cells began to lose their viabilities on the 17th day, and on the 21th day oligonucleosomal sized DNA fragments ( DNA ladder) could be detected. Oligonucleosomal sized DNA fragments ( DNA ladder) was the hallmark of the programmed cell death. Programmed cell death of cotton suspension cells could be induced respectively by some stress factors which included heatshock (42+/-3 degrees C for 8 hours), 10 micromol/L camptothecin, 20 micromol/L fumonisin B1 and 50 mmol/L cycloheximide. The cotton suspension cells which grew in the MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L 2,4 D and 0.1 mg/L KT differred physiologically from the cells in the MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L IBA and 0.1 mg/L KT, and they responded differentially to the heatshock, 10 micromol/L camptothecin and 20 micromol/L fumonisin B1, while the same to 50 mmol/L cycloheximide.

Cell death induced by sodium nitroprusside and hydrogen peroxide in tobacco BY-2 cell suspension

The interplay between nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species can lead to an induction of cell death in plants. The aim of our work was to find out if cyanide released from sodium nitroprusside (SNP; a donor of NO) could be involved in the cell death induction, which is triggered by SNP and H₂O₂. Cell suspension of Nicotiana tabacum L. (line BY-2) was treated with 0.5 mM SNP, 0.5 mM potassium ferricyanide (PFC; analogue of sodium nitroprusside which can not release NO) and/or by 0.5 mM glucose with 0.5 U cm⁻³ glucose oxidase (GGO; a donor system of H₂O₂). The cell death was induced only by combination of SNP and GGO. Thus cyanide released was not involved in the induction of cell death. However, SNP showed toxic effect because of decrease in activities of intracellular oxidoreductases and esterases. The cell death caused by SNP and GGO occurred within 12 h. During cell death either length or width of the cell increased. Central vacuole was formed in 20 to 40 % of cells. Most of the dead cells showed a condensed cytoplasm. Two hallmarks of programmed cell death (PCD), chromatin condensation and blebbing of nuclear periphery, were observed. However, oligonucleosomal fragmentation of DNA, another hallmark of PCD, was not detected.     

Role of mitochondria in ultraviolet‐induced oxidative stress

The biological effects of ultraviolet radiation (UV), such as DNA damage, mutagenesis, cellular aging, and carcinogenesis, are in part mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). The major intracellular ROS intermediate is hydrogen peroxide, which is synthesized from superoxide anion (^•O₂⁻) and further metabolized into the highly reactive hydroxyl radical. In this study, we examined the involvement of mitochondria in the UV‐induced H₂O₂ accumulation in a keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Respiratory chain blockers (cyanide‐p‐trifluoromethoxy‐phenylhydrazone and oligomycin) and the complex II inhibitor (theonyltrifluoroacetone) prevented H₂O₂ accumulation after UV. Antimycin A that inhibits electron flow from mitochondrial complex III to complex IV increased the UV‐induced H₂O₂ synthesis. The same effect was seen after incubation with rotenone, which blocks electron flow from NADH‐reductase (complex I) to ubiquinone. UV irradiation did not affect mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨ_m). These data indicate that UV‐induced ROS are produced at complex III via complex II (succinate‐Q‐reductase). J. Cell.

Cryopreservation of transformed and wild-type Arabidopsis and tobacco cell suspension cultures

We have recently described Arabidopsis cell suspension cultures that can be effectively synchronised. Here, we describe procedures that allow clonal-transformed cell suspension lines to be produced using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, and an optimised and straightforward procedure for the cryopreservation and recovery of both parental and transformed lines. Frozen cultures show 90% viability and rapid re-growth after recovery. We show that the cryopreservation procedure is equally applicable to the frequently used tobacco bright yellow (BY)2 cell suspension culture, and that cell cycle synchronisation capacity of parental lines is maintained after both transformation and recovery from cryopreservation. The techniques require no specialised equipment, and are suitable for routine laboratory use, greatly facilitating the handling and maintenance of cell cultures and providing security against both contamination and cumulative somaclonal variation. Finally, the ability to store easily large numbers of transformed lines opens the possibility of using Arabidopsis cell suspension cultures for high-throughput analysis.     

Programmed cell death of tobacco BY‐2 cells induced by still culture conditions is affected by the age of the culture under agitation

Evans Blue staining indicated that actively growing tobacco BY‐2 cells in the exponential phase died more rapidly than quiescent cells in the stationary phase when the cells cultured under agitation were placed under still conditions. Fifty percent cell death was induced at about 18, 26, 80 and 140 h for early, mid, late exponential‐ and stationary‐phase cells, respectively. Actively growing cells became TUNEL (transferase‐mediated dUTP nick end labelling)‐positive more rapidly than quiescent cells, suggesting that the cell death evaluated by Evans Blue is accompanied by DNA cleavages. Electrophoresis of genomic DNA showed a typical ‘DNA laddering' pattern formed by multiples of about 200 bp internucleosomal units. Chromatin condensation was first detected at least within 24 h by light microscopy, and then cell shrinkage followed. These findings suggest that the death of BY‐2 cells induced by still conditions is PCD (programmed cell death).     

Abiotic stress induces apoptotic-like features in tobacco that is inhibited by expression of human Bcl-2

The shared features between plant and animal programmed cell death are becoming increasingly apparent. In this study, human Bcl-2, an anti-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of cell death regulators, was stably expressed in tobacco. Previously, we have shown that such plants were resistant/tolerant to several necrotrophic fungal pathogens. In this study, we show that transgenic plants are protected by several lethal abiotic stresses including heat, cold, menadione and hydrogen peroxide. Importantly, wild type tobacco, exposed to these treatments, not only died but during the death process exhibited features associated with mammalian apoptosis including DNA laddering, fragmentation, and the development of apoptotic bodies. These features were not observed in viable transgenic tobacco. Thus, abiotic stress induced cell death in plants can be accompanied by apoptotic-like features that are inhibited by expression of Bcl-2. These observations add to the growing body of evidence indicating trans-kingdom conservation of programmed cell death mechanisms.     

Hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide and cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase at the crossroad between defence and cell death

An increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a typical event occurring during different stress conditions and activating conflicting responses in plants. In order to investigate the relevance of different timing and amounts of ROS production, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) Bright Yellow-2 (TBY-2) cells were incubated with different amounts of glucose plus glucose oxidase, for generating H(2)O(2) during time, or directly with known amounts of H(2)O(2). Data presented here indicate that, in TBY-2 cells, a difference in H(2)O(2) level is a critical point for shifting metabolic responses towards strengthening of antioxidant defences, or their depletion with consequent cell death. Timing of ROS production is also critical because it can determine programmed cell death (PCD) or necrosis. Depending on the different kinds of activated cell death, ascorbate (ASC) and glutathione (GSH) pools are altered differently. Moreover, an H(2)O(2)-dependent activation of nitric oxide synthesis is triggered only in the conditions inducing PCD. Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) has been analysed under different conditions of H(2)O(2) generation. Under a threshold value of H(2)O(2) overproduction, a transient increase in APX occurs, whereas under conditions inducing cell necrosis, the activity of APX decreases in proportion to cell death without any evident alteration in APX gene expression. Under conditions triggering PCD, the suppression of APX involves both gene expression and alteration of the kinetic characteristics of the enzyme. The changes in ASC, GSH and APX are involved in the signalling pathway leading to PCD, probably contributing to guaranteeing the cellular redox conditions required for successful PCD.
