The response of small vessel endothelial cells from fetal rat lung to growth factors

Small vessel pulmonary endothelial cells were obtained from rat fetal lung at day 20 of gestation, and were maintained in culture to passage three for study. Endothelial cells grown on a collagen matrix with Dulbecco's minimal essential medium: Ham's F12 medium (1:1, v/v) supplemented with 20 ml/l fetal bovine serum, bovine pituitary extract (50 mg/l), endothelial cell growth supplement (100 mg/l), hydrocortisone (1 mg/l) and an increased (10 mmol/l) magnesium concentration retained the characteristic endothelial cell marker factor VIII antigen during the third passage in culture. The factors responsible for small vessel growth in the developing fetal lung are unknown. To test the hypothesis that small vessel pulmonary endothelial cells would respond to autocrine or paracrine growth factors the effects of conditioned media from fetal lung endothelial cells, fibroblasts and pneumocytes from lungs of the same gestational age were studied in vitro. None of the tested conditioned media had any effect on endothelial cell DNA synthesis in the presence of 20 ml/l fetal bovine serum. Since no paracrine or autocrine effects of conditioned media were observed, the effect of other growth factors that could be derived from the circulation, or from storage sites in subcellular matrix, were studied for effect. When endothelial cells were studied in the presence of 20 ml/l fetal bovine serum and 100 mg/l endothelial cell growth supplement they had enhanced DNA synthesis in response to the progression-type growth factors insulin (5 mg/l), insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-II (20 micrograms/l) and epidermal growth factor (10 micrograms/l). In the absence of serum or endothelial growth supplement endothelial cell DNA synthesis was enhanced by the competence-type growth factors acidic and basic fibroblastic growth factors at 100 micrograms/l and platelet derived growth factor at 10 micrograms/l. In the absence of exogenous competence-type growth factors neutralizing antibodies to basic fibroblast growth factor reduce DNA synthesis. Of various cytokines tested only interleukin-1 (1 x 10(3) U/l) and tumor necrosis factor (25 x 10(4) U/l) had an effect on endothelial cell DNA synthesis. Endothelial cell division during fetal lung development may be controlled by progression growth factors present in serum, and by either autocrine release of the competence factor basic fibroblast growth factor or paracrine release of platelet-derived growth factor by other cell types.     

Semi-preparative scale purification of enterococcal bacteriocin enterocin EJ97, and evaluation of substrates for its production

The influence of substrate composition on the production of enterocin EJ97 and the conditions for semi-preparative bacteriocin recovery have been studied. Final bacteriocin concentrations of 12.5 or 15.6 mg/l were obtained in the commercial media brain heart infusion broth (BHI) and tryptic soya broth, respectively. The bacteriocin was also produced in the complex medium CM (8.75 mg/l), in which the vitamin supplement was essential for production. Some combinations of meat peptone and yeast extract plus either soy peptone or BHI also supported bacteriocin production, at concentrations of 6.25–7.5 mg/l. In cow milk (whole, half-skimmed, and skimmed), the final bacteriocin concentrations obtained ranged from 7.5 to 11.25 mg/l. Highest bacteriocin activity was obtained by using pasteurised milk whey as growth substrate (up to 25 mg/l), suggesting that this bacteriocin can be obtained on a large scale by using this cheap food-grade industrial by-product. Highest bacteriocin titres were always obtained after 8 h of incubation at 37 °C. Semi-preparative concentration and purification of enterocin EJ97 produced in a complex medium was achieved by bulk cation exchange chromatography without previous cell separation, followed by reversed-phase chromatography. This two-step procedure allowed preparation of milligram quantities of purified bacteriocin, which is an improvement compared to purification procedures established for most other bacteriocins (35). The availability of purified enterocin EJ97 will facilitate other studies such as the elucidation of its molecular structure and its interaction with target bacteria.     

Effect of Benzyladenine, 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid, and d-Glucose on myo-Inositol Metabolism in Acer pseudoplatanus L. Cells Grown in Suspension Culture

Suspension cultures of Acer pseudoplatanus L. cells grown for 15 days in medium (T. Murashige and F. Skoog. 1962. Physiol. Plant. 15: 473-497) contained 3% sucrose, 1 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), and 0.1 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), referred to here as normal media, removed newly added myo-inositol-2-(3)H up to 100 mg/l in 24 hours and utilized up to 20% of this cyclitol for pectin biosynthesis. When the BA content of the growth medium was raised 10-fold, uptake of myo-inositol was drastically reduced and very little was available for pectin biosynthesis. Neither cell growth as measured by packed cell volume or by dry weight, nor monomer composition of pectic polysaccharides was affected by the increased level of cytokinin. Increasing, 2,4-d 10-fold instead of BA had little or no effect on myo-inositol uptake, although it did reduce the amount of myo-inositol utilized for pectin biosynthesis. Cells grown 15 days in normal media failed to remove added myo-inositol if 3% d-glucose was included. The net result was similar to that found in cells grown in the high BA condition. If a trace amount of d-galactose-1-(14)C was supplied to cells after 15 days of growth in normal, high BA, or high 2,4-d media, there was no significant variation in uptake and utilization of label among the three growth conditions.

Regulation of metabolic and electron transport pathways in the freshwater bacterium Beggiatoa leptomitiformis D-402

The biomass yield of freshwater filamentous sulfur bacteria of the genus Beggiatoa, when grown lithoheterotrophically or mixotrophically, has been shown to increase 2 to 2.5 times under microaerobic conditions (0.12 mg/l oxygen) as compared to aerobic conditions (9 mg/l oxygen). The activity of the glyoxylate cycle key enzymes have been found to increase two to three times under microaerobic conditions (at an O2 concentration of 2 mg/l), and the activities of the sulfur metabolism enzymes increased three to five times (at an O2 concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/l). It has also been found that, under microaerobic conditions, thiosulfate was almost completely oxidized to sulfate by the bacteria, without accumulation of intermediate metabolites. At the same time, a 2- to 15-fold decrease in the activities of the tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes involved in the reduction of NAD and FAD was observed. Reorganization of the respiratory chain after changes in aeration and type of nutrition was also observed. It has been found that, in cells grown heterotrophically, the terminal part of the respiratory chain contained an aa3-type oxidase, whereas, during mixotrophic, lithoheterotrophic, and autotrophic growth, aa3-type oxidase synthesis was inhibited, and the synthesis of a cbb3-type oxidase, which is induced under microaerobic conditions, was activated. The gene of the catalytic subunit CcoN of the cbb3-type oxidase was sequenced and proved to be highly homologous to the corresponding genes of other proteobacteria.     

Plantlets from somatic callus tissue of the woody legume Sesbania bispinosa (Jacq.) W. F. Wight

In vitro regeneration of plantlets and multiplication of Sesbania bispinosa (Jacq.) W.F. Wight plants from cultured callus tissue were demonstrated. Callus was established from both cotyledons and mature leaflets on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with BAP (0.5 mg/l) and 2,4-D (2 mg/l). Callus mediated shoot bud differentiation was studied under defined nutritional, hormonal and cultural conditions. Various concentrations of BAP or kinetin (Kn) with coconut milk (CM) in MS media induced different levels of shoot bud differentiation as well as multiplication. Multiple shoot bud differentiation occurred in most of the primary calli. The best medium for shoot bud differentiation from cotyledon derived callus, contained BAP (2 mg/l) and 15% CM (V/V). More efficient shoot bud organogenesis was recorded with BAP than Kn. Supplementation with CM in MS media accelerated shoot bud organogenesis in differentiating callus tissue. Rooting of differentiated shoots was achieved by a three step culture procedure involving (a) MS solid medium containing IBA (2 mg/l), (b) growth regulator free half strength MS medium with 1% charcoal, and (c) half strength MS liquid medium free of vitamins, growth regulators and charcoal.Abbreviations IAA indoleacetic acid - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - Kn kinetin - CM coconut milk - MS Murashige and Skoog's medium - SBI shoot bud inducing medium     

A tissue culture technique for rapid clonal propagation and storage under minimal growth conditions of Musa (Banana and plantain)

A tissue culture technique for rapid clonal propagation and storage under minimal growth conditions is presented in this paper. Shoot-tip cultures of Musa cultivars (both banana and plantain) are induced by culturing small excised shoot apices on modified MS semisolid medium supplemented with various concentrations and combinations of auxins and cytokinins. The effects of cytokinin concentration in the medium as well as the genotypic configuration of the cultivars on the rate of shoot-bud proliferation have been tested. The established shoot-tip cultures grown on modified MS semisolid medium supplemented with IAA (0.18 mg/l) and BA (2.30 mg/l) have been successfully stored at 15°C with 1000 lux light intensity up to 13–17 months depending on the cultivar. The cultivars tested in the present investigation seem to vary in their ability to withstand minimal growth temperature.Abbreviations BA Benzyladenine - IAA Indoleacetic acid - IBA Indolebutyric acid - MS Murashige and Skoog     

Effects of dietary grape proanthocyanidins on the growth performance,jejunum morphology and plasma biochemical indices of broiler chicks

Grape proanthocyanidins (GPCs) are a family of naturally derived polyphenols that have aroused interest in the poultry industry due to their versatile role in animal health. This study was conducted to investigate the potential benefits and appropriate dosages of GPCs on growth performance, jejunum morphology, plasma antioxidant capacity and the biochemical indices of broiler chicks. A total of 280 newly hatched male Cobb 500 broiler chicks were randomly allocated into four treatments of seven replicates each, and were fed a wheat–soybean meal-type diet with or without (control group), 7.5, 15 or 30 mg/kg of GPCs. Results show that dietary GPCs decrease the feed conversion ratio and average daily gain from day 21 to day 42, increase breast muscle yield by day 42 and improve jejunum morphology between day 21 and day 42. Chicks fed 7.5 and 15 mg/kg of GPCs show increased breast muscle yield and exhibit improved jejunum morphologies than birds in the control group. Dietary GPCs fed at a level of 15 mg/kg markedly increased total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity between day 21 and day 42, whereas a supplement of GPCs at 7.5 mg/kg significantly increased T-SOD activity and decreased lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde content by day 42. A supplement of 30 mg/kg of GPCs has no effect on antioxidant status but adversely affects the blood biochemical indices, as evidenced by increased creatinine content, increased alkaline phosphatase by day 21 and increased alanine aminotransferase by day 42 in plasma. GPC levels caused quadratic effect on growth, jejunum morphology and plasma antioxidant capacity. The predicted optimal GPC levels for best plasma antioxidant capacity at 42 days was 13 to 15 mg/kg, for best feed efficiency during grower phase was 16 mg/kg, for best jejunum morphology at 42 days was 17 mg/kg. In conclusion, GPCs (fed at a level of 13 to 17 mg/kg) have the potential to be a promising feed additive for broiler chicks.     

The effects of coumarin on the growth and viability of sporelings of red algae

Summary The growth of sporelings of the red algae Plumaria elegans, Antithamnion plumula and Polysiphonia brodiaei was markedly influenced by coumarin. Growth of Plumaria and Antithamnion was totally inhibited by immersion for 7 days in media containing 200 mg coumarin/l, and showed 46% and 41% growth inhibition respectively in 100 mg coumarin/l; a significant reduction in growth was obtained in 50 mg/l of the phytostatic agent (e.g. 15% growth inhibition with Plumaria; and 10% with Antithamnion). A noticeable stimulation of growth was observed in 10 mg coumarin/l. The viabilities of the sporelings remained high after immersion in the toxic agent. The inhibitory effects were of a similar order both with the young plants treated immediately after commencement of growth, and with sporelings grown normally for 14 days before contact with coumarin. With Plumaria sporelings the maximum inhibitory effects were observed after 3 days immersion in 200 mg coumarin/l, and after 5 days in 100 mg coumarin/l. Immersion for 7 days in 200 mg/l of the reagent induced irreversible changes in the sporelings; such effects were less marked at 100 mg/l; and at 50 mg/l there was a complete recovery from the effects of the compound when speorelings were transferred to normal culture medium. The significance of the results is discussed in terms of the possible factors involved which may influence sporeling growth.     

Interspecific somatic hybridization between lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and wild species L. virosa

Somatic hybrids between cultivated lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and a wild species L. virosa were produced by protoplast electrofusion. Hybrid selection was based on inactivation of L. sativa with 20mM iodoacetamide for 15 min, and the inability of L. virosa protoplasts to divide in the culture conditions used. Protoplasts were cultured in agarose beads in a revised MS media. In all 71 calli were formed and 21 of them differentiated shoots on LS medium containing 0.1mg/l NAA and 0.2mg/l BA. Most regenerated plants exhibited intermediate morphology. These plants were confirmed as hybrids by isoenzyme analysis. The majority of somatic hybrids had 2n=4x=36 chromosomes, and had more vigorous growth than either parent. Hybrids had normal flower morphology, but all were sterile.     

Micropropagation from inflorescence stems of the Spanish endemic plant Centaurea paui Loscos ex Willk. (Compositae)

Tissue culture techniques have been established as a useful approach for ex situ conservation of rare, endemic or threatened plant species. This report describes the micropropagation of Centaurea paui Loscos ex Willk (Compositae), an extremely endangered plant species endemic to the Valencia Community (eastern Spain), as a conservation measure which does not cause damage to the wild plants used as explant source. Inflorescence nodal segments of C. paui were selected as explants for in vitro establishment. The best rate of shoot proliferation was obtained on Murashige and Skoog (MS) mineral medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l 6-benzyladenine or with 2 mg/l kinetin. Maximum shoot elongation was achieved without growth regulators, and the addition of cytokinins significantly decreased their size. In vitro rooting of shoots was difficult after 6 weeks on rooting media. The combination of 2 mg/l indole-3-acetic acid plus 2 mg/l indole-3-butyric acid on MS medium yielded the best results. In this medium, 40% of shoots rooted before 30 days of culture. About 70% of the rooted plants were successfully transferred to pots and acclimatized to ex vitro conditions.

Hydrolysis of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid esters (parabens) and their aerobic transformation into phenol by the resistant Enterobacter cloacae strain EM

Enterobacter cloacae strain EM was isolated from a commercial dietary mineral supplement stabilized by a mixture of methylparaben and propylparaben. It harbored a high-molecular-weight plasmid and was resistant to high concentrations of parabens. Strain EM was able to grow in liquid media containing similar amounts of parabens as found in the mineral supplement (1,700 and 180 mg of methyl and propylparaben, respectively, per liter or 11.2 and 1.0 mM) and in very high concentrations of methylparaben (3,000 mg liter(-1), or 19.7 mM). This strain was able to hydrolyze approximately 500 mg of methyl-, ethyl-, or propylparaben liter(-1) (3 mM) in less than 2 h in liquid culture, and the supernatant of a sonicated culture, after a 30-fold dilution, was able to hydrolyze 1,000 mg of methylparaben liter(-1) (6.6 mM) in 15 min. The first step of paraben degradation was the hydrolysis of the ester bond to produce 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, followed by a decarboxylation step to produce phenol under aerobic conditions. The transformation of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid into phenol was stoichiometric. The conversion of approximately 500 mg of parabens liter(-1) (3 mM) to phenol in liquid culture was completed within 5 h without significant hindrance to the growth of strain EM, while higher concentrations of parabens partially inhibited its growth.

Effect of plant growth regulators,temperature and sucrose on shoot proliferation from the stem disc of Chinese jiaotou (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Allium chinense</Emphasis>) and in vitro bulblet formation

In vitro shoot proliferation from stem disc of Allium chinense, a vegetatively propagated plant, was investigated in this experiment. In the present study, shoots were formed directly on stem discs on a medium containing 1 mg/l N⁶-benzyladenine (BA) and 0.5 mg/lα-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). These shoots were further cultured on MS media supplemented with various levels of BA in combination with NAA, and new shoot clusters developed easily from the explants cultured despite considerable differences in the induction of shoot clusters with different levels of BA and NAA. The most productive combination of growth regulators proved to be 1.0 mg/l BA and 1.0 mg/l NAA, in which about 17 shoots were produced per cluster in 8 weeks culture. Most of the formed shoots were rooted 15 days after being cultured on MS media supplemented with 0.1–1.0 mg/l NAA. The survival rate of the plantlets under ex vitro conditions was 95% in pots filled with a peat: sand (2:1 v/v) mixture after two weeks. In vitro bulblet formation were strongly promoted by the high temperature of 30°C compared to that at 25, 20 and 15°C, and 12% (w/v) sucrose appeared to be optimal for bulblet development. Results from this study demonstrated that A. chinense could be in vitro propagated by using stem discs and in vitro bulblet formation could be achieved.     

Effect of benzylaminopurine on in vitro and in vivo root development in lentil, Lens culinaris Medik

The effect of benzylaminopurine (BAP) on the formation of roots from lentil shoots regenerated on media containing BAP was studied. Seedling shoot tips, first nodes and bractlets, and immature seeds cultured on the initiation media containing 2.25 or 0.225 mg/l of BAP regenerated multiple bud shoots. The regenerated shoots formed roots in percentages ranging from 4.6 to 39.9% on a rooting medium (R medium) containing 2 mg/l of indoleacetic acid. Rooting success on R medium depended upon the cytokinin used in the initiation media, its concentration, and the time elapsed during shoot formation on these media prior to transplanting regenerated shoots to R medium. In vivo study of root growth of lentil seedlings demonstrated the strong inhibitory effect of BAP on root growth reflected in a drastic reduction of the mitotic index of the root meristem.

Condensed tannin and anthocyanin production in Vitis vinifera cell suspension cultures

Suspension cultures of Vitis vinifera were cultured in different media in order to establish a model system for promoting high levels of phenolic substances identical with those found in wine. These media were: a low sucrose maintenance medium (MM) and four high sucrose media (differing mainly in sucrose and mineral contents) which were shown to induce secondary metabolism. In MM medium, polyphenol accumulation in the cells was low, and concentrations of 0.1 mg/gfw for condensed tannins and 0.3 mg/gfw for anthocyanins were reached within two weeks of cultivation. Values of 1.4 and 6.4 mg/gfw, respectively, were obtained with a low nitrate and high sucrose medium (HM1), but cell proliferation was reduced. To obtain a maximal production of polyphenols, we investigated the most effective conditions for cell growth and polyphenol production (a high mineral and high sucrose medium, IM1; inoculum dilution of 1.25:10). Under these conditions, the cells produced mainly anthocyanins (1100 mg/l), proanthocyanidins (300 mg/l) and catechins (25 mg/l).Abbreviations BuOH n-butanol - dw dry weight - fw fresh weight     

In vitro flowering and pod formation from cotyledons of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Summary The response of groundnut cotyledons to the presence of various growth regulators in concentrations from 0.1 to 5 mg/l has been studied in detail using several genotypes of groundnut on two different media. Cotyledons with embryo axis, cultured on Blaydes' medium with cytokinins, produced shoots, in the axils of which 2–7 flower buds could be seen. The frequency of flower bud induction in general increased with increasing concentrations of cytokinins, the optimal levels being 3 mg/l of KN or 4 mg/l of BAP. Cotyledons without embryo axis, cultured on Blaydes' medium with BAP (0.5 mg/l), produced a cluster of flower buds directly, ranging in number from 8–28, without any vegetative growth. Excised embryo axes cultured on the same medium gave plantlets without flower buds. The growth regulators IAA, NAA, GA₃ and ABA failed to induce flower buds in independent treatments. However, lower concentrations of IAA and NAA in combination with cytokinins exerted a positive influence on flowering. The blooming of the flower buds was facilitated on media supplemented with low concentrations of cytokinins. Six percent of the induced flowers resulted in gynophore development and ultimately formed pods when cultured under complete dark conditions in modified MS medium supplemented with kinetin.     

The Effect of Plant Growth Regulators and Sucrose on the Micropropagation and Microtuberization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Dioscorea nipponica</Emphasis> Makino

The effects of sucrose, plant growth regulators, MS (Murashige and Skoog), and ½MS salt media formulations were investigated for the development of shoot cultures, microtuber induction, and plantlet regeneration in Dioscorea nipponica. The cytokinin N-benzyladenine (BA) in the range of 0.5–2.0 mg/l showed strong enhancing effects on microtuber induction only when used in conjunction with the auxin alpha-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), with the effect that NAA increased from 0.5 to 2.0 mg/l. Murashige and Skoog salt media supplemented with sucrose at 3% (w/v) gave the highest frequencies of shoot induction (86%) when BA was present at 2.0 mg/l and NAA at 1.0 mg/l. Sucrose at 7% (w/v) was the single most significant medium constituent for microtuber growth. The heaviest microtubers were formed on media containing 1.0 mg/l BA and 2.0 mg/l (0.073 g), especially with 7% sucrose (3.46 g). With media containing ½MS, 2% sucrose, and 0.1% (w/v) activated charcoal, the percentage of rooting was maximal when supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BA and 0.5 mg/l NAA for the in vitro produced shoots (95%) and BA and NAA both at 0.5 mg/l for the microtubers (100%). When removed from culture flasks and transferred into sterilized soil in a greenhouse, most of the hardened plantlets survived (over 91% after 1 week), and they were suitable for field planting after 1 month.     

The combination effect of pH, SO2, ethanol and temperature on the growth of Leuconostoc oenos

A factorial design was used to determine the main effects and interactions of pH (3.6, 3.8 and 4.0), SO₂ (25 and 50 mg/l), ethanol (7%, 10% and 13%, v/v) and temperature (15°C and 25°C) on the growth of 54 Leuconostoc oenos strains. These differed greatly in their ability to survive adverse conditions. Under the test conditions, temperature had a profound effect on growth. The power pH values of 3.6 and 3.8 had a marked inhibitory effect on growth, as did at the lower temperature of 15°C. The higher concentrations of SO₂ (50 mg/l) and ethanol (13%) had the greatest inhibitory effect on growth, and with a synergistic effect when both SO₂ and ethanol were added to the test medium. Based on these results, five strains were selected that were best capable of surviving the adverse conditions studied. These strains will be used for further study on the induction of malolactic fermentation in wine.
