山核桃叶总黄酮抑制TBBPA诱导斑马鱼胚胎发育毒性的研究

四溴双酚A(tetrabromobisphenol A,TBBPA)是新型高关注度污染物之一,对鱼类具有强毒性。山核桃叶中的黄酮类化合物具有抗氧化和抗细胞凋亡等作用。通过硅胶柱洗脱、薄层色谱(TLC)检测对山核桃叶进行提取和纯化,得到黄酮类化合物产物B;设置4个实验组(空白对照,0.5 mg/L TBBPA,1.0 mg/L产物B,0.5 mg/L TBBPA和1.0 mg/L产物B),记录斑马鱼胚胎发育过程中的形态学指标;同时,检测不同处理组中活性氧(reactive oxygen species,ROS)水平和凋亡相关基因的表达情况。结果发现,山核桃叶提取的总黄酮产物B中包含50%的查尔酮、27%的黄酮或者黄酮醇、18%的二氢黄酮或者二氢黄酮醇、5%的异黄酮等22种黄酮类化合物;富含黄酮类化合物的产物B对TBBPA诱导斑马鱼胚胎的卵凝结率、畸形率及32 h血流障碍等指标具有显著降低作用;可显著抑制TBBPA诱导的ROS水平升高;对TBBPA诱导的凋亡基因p53上调和Bcl-2下调均有显著改善作用。实验结果表明山核桃叶总黄酮通过降低ROS水平,抑制凋亡基因的异常表达,发挥抗氧化和抑制凋亡作用。实验结果有助于了解山核桃叶有效成分总黄酮对TBBPA诱导的斑马鱼胚胎毒性的保护作用,为水生态系统和人体健康危害的防治提供新思路。

黄酮类化合物减轻阿尔茨海默病Aβ沉积及Tau过度磷酸化的作用

阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer’s disease,AD)是全世界患病人数最多的神经退行性疾病,从神经病理角度来看它具有以β淀粉样蛋白(amyloid β-protein,Aβ)聚集物为主形成的老年斑和Tau蛋白过度磷酸化形成的神经纤维缠结(neurofibrillary tangles,NFTs)两大特征。黄酮类化合物是广泛存在于水果、蔬菜中的一类多酚类化合物,主要有六大类。多种黄酮类化合物经研究证实具有减轻Aβ沉积以及抑制Tau蛋白过度磷酸化方面的活性。本综述主要描述了AD的两个主要病理特征和黄酮类化合物对其作用的机制。

THE ALLIUM INFLORESCENCE: SOME SPECIES OF THE SECTION MOLIUM

Mann , Louis K. (U. California, Davis.) The Allium inflorescence: some species of the section Molium. Amer. Jour. Bot. 46(10): 730–739. Illus. 1959.—The inflorescence is described for Allium neapolitanum, A. roseum, A. hirsutum, A. subhirsutum, A. zebdanense and A. erdelii, species of Molium, a Mediterranean section of the genus. Inflorescence structure is similar among these 6 species. The single spathe appears to consist of 4 coalesced bracts, each of which bears in its axil a bostryx (helicoid cyme) of 3–7 flowers. Central to these 4 peripheral bostryxes are several smaller ones which differentiate later and decrease in flower number toward the inflorescence center. Bracts and bracteoles (prophylls) are generally absent within the spathe. The inflorescence is not radially symmetrical and the bostryx on the side opposite the uppermost foliage leaf differentiates and develops first. Among the peripheral bostryxes there is a definite sequence of development and certain regularities of coiling (clockwise vs. counterclockwise). Within each bostryx the flowers open in a strict sequence from oldest to youngest; among the bostryxes, the 4 peripheral ones flower first, usually starting with the first bostryx to be differentiated. The central bostryxes flower last.     

Sequence analysis of a chloroplast intergenic spacer for phylogenetic estimates in Allium section Cepa and a PCR-based polymorphism detecting mixtures of male-fertile and male-sterile cytoplasmic onion

Restriction-enzyme analysis of the chloroplast (cp) DNA yielded maternal phylogenies supporting a close phylogenetic relationship among normal (N) male-fertile and male-sterile (S) cytoplasmic bulb onion (Allium cepa), Allium altaicum, Allium fistulosum, Allium galanthum, Allium roylei, and Allium vavilovii. The S cytoplasm of onion is most likely an alien cytoplasm introduced in antiquity into onion populations. We previously showed that size differences in an intergenic spacer in the cp DNA distinguish N and S cytoplasms of onion. We cloned and sequenced this intergenic spacer from the N and S cytoplasms of onion, A. altaicum, A. fistulosum, A. galanthum, Allium pskemense, Allium oschaninii, A. roylei, and Allium ampeloprasm (outgroup) to identify the nature of previously described RFLPs and to develop a PCR-based marker revealing N-cytoplasmic contamination of S-cytoplasmic hybrid seed lots. Phylogenies based on restriction-enzyme analysis of the entire cp DNA were similar, but not identical, to those based on sequence divergence in this intergenic region.

Molecular and morphological evidence for an origin of the aberrant genus Milula within himalayan species of Allium (Alliacae)

Phylogenetic relationships between Allium and the monotypic Himalayan genus Milula were analyzed using sequences of the nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and of the intergenic spacers from the chloroplast trnD(GUC)-trnT(GGU) region. Both marker systems unambiguously placed Milula spicata within Allium subgenus Rhizirideum, close to A. cyathophorum. Morphologically, the main difference between Allium and Milula is the conspicuous spicate inflorescence of Milula vs the mostly capitate or umbellate inflorescences in Allium. Anatomical investigations of leaf characters support a close relationship of Milula with A. cyathophorum and A. mairei, whereas root characters are distinctive from other species of section Cyathophora. To maintain Allium as monophyletic, Milula has been included as A. spicatum in Allium subgenus Rhizirideum.     

Pollen morphology of selected species of Allium (Alliaceae) distributed in Iran

Pollen morphology of 19 species of Allium representing six subgenera and 12 sections, were studied. The following characters were recognized as important for separating taxa at different taxonomic ranks: the sulcus, presence or absence of perforations on the pollen surface, density of perforations, size of perforations and size of the pollen grains. Rugulate, rugulate–striate, and simple–perforate exine ornamentation were distinguished. The type of sulcus is very characteristic in A. subgen. Allium sect. Allium . The extended sulcus was not observed in any species the other sections of subgen. Allium studied here, such as sect. Caerulea ( A. capitellatum ), sect. Codonprasum ( A. lenkoranicum and A. stamineum ) and sect. Avulsea ( A. rubellum and A. umblicatum ). Imperforated pollen grains were observed in representatives of A. subgen. Reticulatobulbosa and subgen. Polyprason .

Evolution of genome size across some cultivated Allium species.

Allium L. (Alliaceae), a genus of major economic importance, exhibits a great diversity in various morphological characters and particularly in life form, with bulbs and rhizomes. Allium species show variation in several cytogenetic characters such as basic chromosome number, ploidy level, and genome size. The purpose of the present investigation was to study the evolution of nuclear DNA amount, GC content, and life form. A phylogenetic approach was used on a sample of 30 Allium species, including major vegetable crops and their wild allies, belonging to the 3 major subgenera Allium, Amerallium, and Rhizirideum and 14 sections. A phylogeny was constructed using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences of 43 accessions representing 30 species, and the nuclear DNA amount and the GC content of 24 Allium species were investigated by flow cytometry. For the first time, the nuclear DNA content of Allium cyaneum and Allium vavilovii was measured, and the GC content of 16 species was measured. We addressed the following questions: (i) Is the variation in nuclear DNA amount and GC content linked to the evolutionary history of these edible Allium species and their wild relatives? (ii) How did life form (rhizome or bulb) evolve in edible Allium? Our results revealed significant interspecific variation in the nuclear DNA amount as well as in the GC content. No correlation was found between the GC content and the nuclear DNA amount. The reconstruction of nuclear DNA amount on the phylogeny showed a tendency towards a decrease in genome size within the genus. The reconstruction of life form history showed that rhizomes evolved in the subgenus Rhizirideum from an ancestral bulbous life form and were subsequently lost at least twice independently in this subgenus.     

Systematic Position of Allium macrostemon Based on nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL-F Sequence Data

Allium macrostemon is an important medicinal and edible plant. Its systematic position and taxonmical classification remain controversial to date. To explore this issue, we reconstructed phylogenetic relationships among Amacrostemon and other related taxa using nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL F markers. The phylogenetic trees derived from Bayesian inference and maximum parsimony analysis showed that Amacrostemon is monophyletic, and has a close relationship with some species of polyphyletic sections Caerulea and Pallasia instead of sections Codonoprasum and Allium. The including of Amacrostemon within section Allium was not supported by both molecular data and morphological characters of spathe, filaments and ovary. Allium macrostemon should be included in a new section, however further studies using additional samples (especially those from Central Asia) is necessary. In addition, we also provided a discussion on the phylogenetic relationships among four original plants (Amacrostemon, Achinense, Acaeruleum and Aneriniflorum) of Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus and systematic position of partial species of section Pallasia.
