Abstract. The concentrations of putrescine, spermidine and spermine, the only polyamines detectable in normal and habituated calli of Beta vulgaris L. ssp. altissima , were much higher in the habituated callus than the normal callus, irrespective of experimental conditions. These results suggest that, in normal (tolerant to NaCl) and habituated (sensitive to NaCl) calli, there exists a competition for the common precursor of ethylene and polyamine biosynthesis viz. S-adenosylmethionine. A disequilibrium favouring the synthesis of putrescine and spermidine in the habituated callus might be linked to structural deterioration of the cell membrane following extended culture or severe osmotic stress (68 mol m−1 NaCl). The maintenance of membrane integrity by the normal callus coincides with ethylene production at the expense of polyamine synthesis. In contrast to the habituated callus, the salinity tolerance of the normal callus is accompanied by the accumulation of proline under hypersaline conditions (274mol m−3). The important osmoregulatory role played by quaternary ammonium compounds in the-aerial parts of Chenopodiaceae, especially the sugarbeet, is not observed in the calli, these compounds being found in very low concentrations in saline conditions.  相似文献

A fully habituated (auxin- and cytokinin-independent) self-regenerating (organo-genic) sugar beet cell line (HO) and a fully habituated non-organogenic one (HNO) derived from the former one, were analyzed as to their nuclear size and DNA content. Flow cytometry and image analysis were used and cells of certified diploid leaves of the same sugar beet strain served as controls. The HNO cells had been shown previously to have many characteristics of cancerous cells. The analyses made on leaves and HNO cells indicated the presence of only one population of cycling cells. In HO cells, two cycling populations were detected: the first one had the same DNA content as the leaves while the second one contained two fold more DNA than the first population. HNO cells showed the higher nuclear size and DNA content. HNO cells also showed evidence of aneuploidy. Thus, nuclear size, DNA content and ploidy level increase together with the neoplasic progression to culminate in HNO cells with the loss of organogenic totipotency. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

There are many arguments for considering a specific fully habituated (auxin and cytokinin-independent) and fully heterotrophic non-organogenic (HNO) sugarbeet callus cell line as terminating a neoplastic progression, and thus to be made of cancerous cells. The similarities with animal tumour and cancer cells are recalled. All types of habituated tissues examined in the literature share at least three common biochemical characteristics: low apparent peroxidase activity, high content of polyamines (PAs) and low production of ethylene. However, results concerning their auxin and cytokinin levels are not consistent. Peroxidase synthesis in the achlorophyllous HNO callus appears to arise from aminolevulinic acid (ALA) synthesis through the Shemin pathway, commonly used by animals and fungi. This pathway is limited by disturbed nitrogen metabolism that diverts glutamate (directly used for ALA synthesis in green higher plants) from the Kreb's cycle into PA synthesis. There is no argument to suggest that the low ethylene production is caused by a competition with PAs for their common precursor, S-adenosylmethionine. The results we report here indicate modified anabolic and catabolic pathways of auxins and cytokinins but also the possibilities of unusual compounds playing similar roles (dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol glucosides, for instance). A higher turnover of PAs is shown in the HNO callus, which could suggest a role for H2O2 and gamma-aminobutyric acid, products or intermediates in the PA catabolic pathway, as secondary messengers. The habituated cells retain some sensitivity towards exogenous auxins and cytokinins. Their increased sensitivity to PAs and ethylene suggests modified hormonal balances for the control of these actively dividing cells.  相似文献

A fully habituated (auxin‐ and cytokinin‐independent) nonorganogenic (HNO) sugarbeet ( Beta vulgaris ) callus produces very little ethylene as compared with a normal (N) hormone‐requiring callus of the same strain. Both callus types react by growth changes to application of inhibitors of ethylene biosynthesis and ethylene action, of 1‐aminocyclopropane‐1‐carboxylic acid (ACC) as the immediate precursor of ethylene, to transfer from light to darkness, and also to application of exogenous ethylene or an ethylene trapper. This indicates their growth dependency upon their endogenously biosynthesized ethylene and also their sensitivity to exogenous gas. However, the sensitivity was generally higher for the HNO callus producing naturally less ethylene. The weaker reaction of the HNO callus to the exogenous ethylene was attributed to its hyperhydric status (a water layer surrounding the cells). Because low ethylene production appears as a general characteristic of habituated cell lines, the causal and/or consequential relationships of this low ethylene production with other characteristics of habituated tissues (absence of exogenous hormones in the culture media, deficiency of cell differentiation, accumulation of polyamines in neoplastic tissues) are discussed.  相似文献

A cytokinin habituated non-organogenic callus line of Glycine max L. cv. Acme, was isolated. Cytokinins were detected in both non- and habituated calli. HPLC analysis indicated that the highest biological activity was associated with compounds that cochromatographed with zeatin and derivatives thereof. Cytokinin-like activity in the habituated callus was higher than in the non-habituated callus. No difference was observed in the ability of the two callus types to metabolise trans-zeatin. The habituated callus however, metabolised N6(2-isopentenyl)adenine (iP)at a slower rate than the non-habituated line. The regulation of proline and putrescine levels during the growth cycle was similar in both callus types, although less proline was present in the habituated than the non-habituated callus. In both callus types a decrease in putrescine levels was accompanied by an increase in the proline levels on day 21 of the growth cycle. Neither spermine nor spermidine were detected in either the habituated or non-habituated lines. A comparison of the total RNA levels of the habituated and non-habituated material revealed higher RNA levels in the non-habituated than the habituated line. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated the presence of 3 polypeptides in the habituated callus on day 13 of the growth cycle. These were not detected in the non-habituated callus, of similar age.Abbreviations Ade Adenine - DTT 1,4-dithiothreitol - IEF isoelectrofocussing - iP N6(2-isopentenyl)adenine - NAA -Naphthaleneacetic acid - SDS Sodium dodecyl sulphate  相似文献

Spermidine and ornithine given to normal auxin-requiring cell suspensions of sugarbeet inhibited peroxidase secretion in the absence of Ca2+. Habituated (organogenic or not) cells did not respond. Both compounds counteracted the Ca2+ - promoted enzyme secretion by three cell lines. Auxins (2,4-D and BSAA) did not modify the extracellular level of peroxidase activity in the absence of Ca2+ When Ca2+ was added, auxins increased its effect in normal cells and had practically no effect in habituated cells. The inhibitory effect of spermidine and ornithine was somewhat reduced by auxins in normal cells and increased in habituated cells. It was hypothesized that the effect of auxins did not involve the mediation of polyamines and that both types of compounds directly interacted with Ca2+ at the membrane level.Abbreviations BSAA [benzo(b)selenienyl-3]acetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - HNO habituated non-organogenic - HO habituated organogenic - NNO normal non-organogenic  相似文献

The transfer of light-cultured green normal (N) and white habituated (HNO) sugarbeet callus to darkness reduced the growth of N callus and improved growth and delayed necrosis in the HNO callus. The decrease of dry matter of N callus under darkness was accompanied by a reduced content of carotenoids and by decreased CO2 fixation, which was compensated by an increased dependency on externally supplied sucrose. The levels of some organic nitrogen compounds such as glutamate, proline, and free polyamines were not affected by transfer to darkness of N or HNO callus. Darkness decreased ethylene emissions in both callus types. In the HNO callus, the sucrose growth dependency and the CO2 fixation were unaffected by darkness. Chlorophylls were absent both in light and darkness, whereas some carotenoids were accumulated in the HNO callus only in dark conditions. In another connection, a significant increase of peroxidase activity, which did not occur in the N callus, was induced by darkness in the HNO callus. A decreased content of thio-barbituric acid (TBA)-reactive substances was measured in the HNO callus transferred to darkness, whereas an increase was noticed in the N callus placed in the same conditions. These metabolic changes and the reduction of cellular damage in darkness revealed light-induced stress reactions leading to necrosis and to reduced growth of HNO callus. It appeared that darkness allowed the HNO callus to avoid the photooxidation stress. Therefore, the favorable effect of darkness on HNO growth might be explained by the suppression of photooxidative damage due to the absence of carotenoids. The higher peroxidase activity in the HNO callus maintained in darkness raised the problem of heme synthesis in this heterotrophic callus.  相似文献

Redox properties of cells of normal hormone-requiring (N) and habituated (H) sugarbeet calli have been investigated. It was found that H cells at all ages reduced exogenous ferricyanide at a much higher rate than N cells, but they exhibited a lower chemiluminescence either alone or in presence of luminol. The plasma membrane NADH:fer-ricyanide oxidoreductase measured in vitro was almost identical for the two cell types. This could indicate that the higher reducing power of H cells had an intracellular origin. Among the enzyme activities which could provide electrons, malate dehydrogenase activity was found to be a good candidate, being more active in H cells. The results are discussed in relation to the abnormal structure of the cell wall of habituated cells.  相似文献

Summary A fully habituated nonorganogenic (HNO) sugarbeet callus line, compared to a normal (hormone dependent) one originated from the same plant exhibits many characteristics of a vitrified tissue and several traits common to animal cancer cells. Four types of biochemical or metabolic characteristics of HNO callus [deficiency of tetrapyrrole-containing compounds; lipid (per)oxidation and malondialdehyde formation; high activity of enzyme protective systems; proline, glutamate, and polyamine accumulation] may be interpreted as responses to stress. The deficiency of tetrapyrrole-containing compounds can be considered an indirect protection against activated forms of oxygen as well as the higher activity of the antioxidant defense mechanisms. This fits with suggestions in the literature that the autonomy associated with plant cancer tissue is explained on the basis of antioxidants as stimulators of cell division and corresponding inhibitors of cell differentiation. Such changes occurring in HNO cells may in turn be responsible for a greater absorption and sensitivity to ammonium ions. An altered nitrogen metabolism leads to proline, glutamate, and polyamine accumulation. Lipid peroxidation and malondialdehyde accumulation rapidly occur in this very sensitive HNO callus in a prolonged culture cycle, which might be related to the appearance of necrosis bands. Thus there are arguments allowing us to consider HNO cells as mutants adapted to some stresses, but resulting changes in their structure might have rendered them still more sensitive to other factors.  相似文献

NaCl (0 to 274 mM) was added to the culture media of normal and habituated (auxin and cytokinin independent) sugarbeet calli and its effect on growth (estimated by the increase of dry and organic matters), water content and osmotic potential was tested. Growth of normal callus was stimulated by 68 mM NaCl after a lag period of two weeks. This callus tolerated up to 137 mM NaCl without growth reduction and maintained its hydric status by readjustment of its osmotic potential in 24 h. NaCl quantities under 34 mM stimulated growth of the habituated callus from the 3rd day on; higher NaCl concentrations (68 to 274 mM) inhibited growth or were lethal. NaCl sensitivity of this habituated callus was not due to its inability to adjust its osmotic potential: this adjustment occurred from the 4th h of culture whatever the media. From the 3rd day on, however, this callus presented a water deficit which depended on NaCl concentration. It is suggested that the lowering of osmotic potential corresponds to an important water loss in relation to changes in membrane permeability. This study finally shows that mechanisms of salt tolerance may have developed at the cellular level. Lower growth and lower salt tolerance of the habituated callus need further investigation in relation to cell structure and hormone autonomy.   相似文献

Summary The levels of the water-soluble reductants ascorbic acid and glutathione and the activities of the enzymatic antioxidants superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate and dehydroascorbate reductases and glutathione reductase were determined in a fully habituated nonorganogenic sugarbeet callus line (considered a neoplasm) compared with a normal hormone-dependent callus of the same plant. Ascorbic acid was not recovered from either of the two calluses, irrespective of the technique used. Glutathione was titrated at a slightly higher level in the normal callus. Catalase activity was almost nonexistent in the habituated callus. The other enzymes (superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, dehydroascorbate reductase, and ascorbate peroxidase) were found to have higher activities in the habituated callus. The results are interpreted as a higher protection of the neoplastic habituated cells against oxygen-free radicals and hydroperoxide-dependent oxidations. Such strong scavenging properties of the habituated cell line could explain previous results already reported, namely the stimulation of cell division at the expense of cell differentiation.  相似文献

Habituated (H) nonorganogenic sugarbeet callus was found to exhibit a disturbed sugar metabolism. In contrast to cells from normal (N) callus, H cells accumulate glucose and fructose and show an abnormal high fructose/glucose ratio. Moreover, H cells which have decreased wall components, display lower glycolytic enzyme activities (hexose phosphate isomerase and phosphofructokinase) which is compensated by higher activities of the enzymes of the hexose monophosphate pathway (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase). The disturbed sugar metabolism of the H callus is discussed in relation to a deficiency in H2O2 detoxifying systems.Abbreviations 6PG-DH 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase - G6P-DH glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase - H fully habituated callus - HK hexokinase - HMP hexoses monophosphate - HPI hexose phosphate isomerase - N normal callus - PFK phosphofructokinase  相似文献

Erythromycin (ERT) has been shown to reduce the 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) synthesizing capacity of a normal (N) chlorophyllous sugarbeet callus, grown under light, in contrast to a habituated achlorophyllous non-organogenic (HNO) callus of the same species. Similar effects were obtained on total hemes and on catalase which is a hemoprotein used as marker. The effect of ERT, which is an inhibitor of plastid differentiation and of chlorophyll synthesis, was reversed in the N callus by a supply of glycine and succinate. The compounds are the precursors of ALA synthesized through 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS) which is implied in the Shemin pathway. The involvement of ALAS appeared to be favoured when plastids were undifferentiated (HNO callus) or when plastids were inefficient (N callus under darkness or under light after ERT treatment).  相似文献

Callus cultures derived from pith tissue of Nicotiana tabacum were grown on two media either under continuous illumination or in complete darkness. The first medium limited greening ability of callus grown in the light (3 milligrams per liter naphthalene acetic acid, 0.3 milligram per liter 2-isopentenylaminopurine, Murashige and Skoog salts, and 2% sucrose). The second medium encouraged chlorophyll synthesis (greening) though not shoot formation (0.3 milligram per liter naphthalene acetic acid; 0.3 milligrans per liter 2-isopentylaminopurine). To measure intracellular concentrations, calli were grown for 15 days on these standard media containing [U-14C]sucrose. The dry weight proportions of the calli (as a fraction of fresh weight) and many metabolite concentrations nearly doubled in light-grown cells compared to dark-grown cells and increased 30 to 40% on low-auxin media relative to high-auxin media. Glutamine concentrations (from 4 to 26 millimolar) were very high, probably due to the NH3 content of the media. Proline concentrations were 20-fold higher in calli grown on low-auxin media in the light (green cells), possibly a stress response to high osmotic potentials in these cells. To analyze sucrose metabolism, callus cells were allowed to take up 0.2% (weight per volume) [U-14C]sucrose for up to 90 minutes. In callus tissues and in pith sections from stems of tobacco plants, sucrose was primarily metabolized through invertase activity, producing equal amounts of labeled glucose and fructose. Respiration of 14CO2 followed the labeling patterns of tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates. Photorespiration activity was low.  相似文献

Summary NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy was used to identify metabolic solutes in one normal and two habituated sugarbeet cell lines (Beta vulgaris L.altissima) obtained from the same mother strain. This technique was applied to investigate the intracellular naturally occurring13C isotopes (1.1% of total natural carbon) in living sugarbeet suspension cells and perchloric cell extracts. A combination of1H,13C, double-quantum filter correlation spectroscopy, heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation, and heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence spectra from perchloric cell extracts enabled us to identify the main compounds in the different extract solutions. This was verified by spiking the solutions with small amounts of reference compounds to exclude the influence exerted by pH on the chemical shifts of the different compounds in the1H and13C spectra. The comparison of the three sugarbeet cell lines' NMR spectra showed the presence of sucrose, glucose, and fructose in the three strains. On the other hand, it revealed a strong discrepancy between metabolic solutes. Spectra from the habituated lines showed the presence of glutamine. Some amino acids such as alanine or valine, and unidentified signals corresponding to aromatic rings were only characterized in the habituated nonorganogenic cells. On the basis of these13C NMR data we assumed that the discrepancy between the different sugarbeet cell lines could be due to an increase in the metabolic activity of the habituated cell lines in relation to their autonomous growth.Abbreviations DQF-COSY double-quantum filter correlation spectroscopy - HO habituated organogenous - HNO habituated nonorganogenous - HMBC heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation - HMQC heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence - N normal - NMR nuclear magnetic resonance - TSP sodium tetradeutero-3-(trimethylsilyl)-propionate  相似文献

Determination of the nuclear DNA content of leaves and normal, habituated and Crown gall callus tissues of Nicotiana tabacum var. White Burley were performed using cytophotometry on Feulgen stained preparations. Several aspects concerning the reliability of the Feulgen technique for DNA determinations were investigated.Crown gall callus tissue used in this study had both a higher nuclear DNA content and chromosome number than normal callus (3.2C versus 2.5C). Both have a higher DNA content than the diploid tobacco leaf cells (2C).The normal callus tissue failed to grow on medium without indole acetic acid and kinetin when cultured in tubes. From this normal callus two habituated lines growing without both phytohormones were selected by culturing the normal callus first in the absence of either indole acetic acid or kinetin. Changing the culture conditions of the normal callus by using culture flasks instead of tubes resulted in a remarkably faster growth rate of the tissue. This was accompanied by an acquisition of the habituation characteristics since it was possible now to grow this tissue also directly on medium lacking both phytohormones. All habituated tissues showed a higher nuclear DNA content compared to the normal callus tissue from which they were derived. Interestingly, one of the tissues acquired a nuclear DNA content not different from that of Crown gall tissue. By changing the culture conditions of Crown gall callus tissue no concomitant change in nuclear DNA content occurred.The results suggest a correlation between the acquisition of a special chromosome complement and the loss of phytohormone requirement resulting in autonomous growth.  相似文献

Changes in the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity, accumulation of phenolic acids and ionically-bound peroxidase activity in thein vitro selected embryogenic and nonembryogenicMedicago sativa callus cultures resistant to the filtrate ofFusarium spp. were found. The PAL activity in bothin vitro selected cultures during a 4-week cultivation on a medium with phytotoxins was higher than in the control calli grown on a medium without toxin. The filtrate fromFusarium spp. evoked an increase in the contents of all determined phenolic acids in the selected calli. They occurred predominantly bound as esters. The most pronounced portions in the elevated acids level were of ester-bound p-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, p-coumaric and ferulic acids. The ionic cell wall-bound peroxidase activity in both selected calli cultivated on a medium with a filtrate was twice as high as the activity determined in the control cultures. The activity of soluble peroxidase was not influenced by challenge with a filtrate. No significant differences were found between thein vitro selected embryogenic and nonembryogenic alfalfa callus cultures in the response to the phytotoxic filtrate.  相似文献

Pollen preparations usually show a high nuclease activity. Therefore, to avoid DNA degradation, co-cultures of pollen and Agrobacterium tumefaciens were evaluated as a new tool in gene transfer experiments. As a model system, Petunia pollen was co-cultured with an A. tumefaciens wild strain. The co-cultured pollen was used for pollination of Petunia flowers. The seeds obtained were germinated and one cotyledon per seedling was removed and put stalk upwards on nutrient agar. In 80% of the cotyledons a callus developed from the cut surface of the stalks which was screened for tumor transformation on hormone-free medium. In repeated subculturing some calli maintained growth on hormone-free medium. Two of these calli were habituated. One callus, the best growing one, showed on Southern blot analysis a distinct hybridization signal at 3.2 kb when probed with Hind III fragment 22 DNA, covering two genes responsible for hormone free growth. This is the exact size that could be expected when plant material has been transformed with T-DNA. Another callus gave a hybridization signal at 2 kb which could only be explained with chromosomal rearrangement. In these two calli there was no co-transformation of the nos-gene: nopaline synthase activity could be detected from none of the calli, and none of the calli DNAs hybridized when probed with the nos-gene. Bacterial contamination could be excluded by probing the DNAs with virfragments.  相似文献

Tissue cultures of Nicotiana labacum consisting of green, albino and habituated (normal origin) and teratoma (tomorous origin) were grown under asceptic conditions for 6 to 8 weeks and their extracts were analyzed for phosphatase activity. Comparative enzyme analyses were also made on crude stem extracts of greenhouse-grown normal and tumor tissues of Nicotiana tabacum (var. Wisconsin) and a hybrid (N. glauca × N. langsdorffii).

All the crude extracts showed acid phosphatase activity with a pH optimum at 5.8 to 6.0. The total protein content and enzyme acivity of teratoma tissue (tumor) was higher than that of green, albino or habituated tissue (normal). Similar increased levels were seen in tumor tissue grown in greenhouse in comparison with greenhouse-grown normal tissues. The crude extracts of each of the tissues did not exhibit any qualitative difference in specificity with the 5 different substrates tested; however, differences in the level of activity was observed.

The effect of 4 different culture media was tested on the growth, protein content and acid phosphatase activity of habituated tobacco in tissue culture. Tissues growing in medium containing high salt concentrations showed higher activities than tissues grown in a basal control medium. From the results, it is suggested that although many factors like auxin and other growth factors can influence growth of habituated tobacco tissue, they need not necessarily affect this specific enzyme activity.
