Using pharmacological and biochemical approaches, the role of protein phosphorylation and the interrelationship between water stress-enhanced kinase activity, antioxidant enzyme activity, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation and endogenous abscisic acid in maize (Zea mays L.) leaves were investigated. Water-stress upregulated the activities of total protein phosphorylation and Ca2+ -dependent protein kinase, and the upregulation was blocked in abscisic acid-deficient vp5 mutant. Furthermore, pretreatments with a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase inhibitor and a scavenger of H2O2 significantly reduced the increased activities of total protein kinase and Ca2+-dependent protein kinase in maize leaves exposed to water stress. Pretreatments with different protein kinase inhibitors also reduced the water stress-induced H2O2 production and the water stress-enhanced activities of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase. The data suggest that protein phosphorylation and H2O2 generation are required for water stress-induced antioxidant defense in maize leaves and that crosstalk between protein phosphorylation and H2O2 generation may occur. 相似文献

Changes in polyamine content during in vivo maturation and in vitro culture of maize (Zea mays L.) pollen were studied. The endogenous content of free, conjugated and bound polyamines was analyzed during 30 days of pollen evolution, in both developmental pathways (microsporogenesis and androgenesis). The induction of androgenesis from cold-pretreated uninucleate pollen results, in most of cases, in a lower total polyamine content than that of the in vivo uninucleate pollen. These differences indicate that polyamine metabolism is altered during the induction of androgenesis, and this could be a consequence of increased polyamine assimilation. In general, pollen stages that involve cell division (tetrades, pre-anthesis pollen and four-day cultured pollen) are characterized by a predominance of free Spd. The increase of Spd and Spm in 15-day cultured pollen, when the first embryoids are formed, outline the possible implication of these polyamines in embryogenetic processes. Furthermore, these findings may contribute to the improvement of maize androgenesis yield, especially in recalcitrant genotypes, by the exogenous application of polyamines or polyamine-inhibitors to the culture medium. 相似文献

Embryogenesis can be initiated directly from microspores or pollen grains. This is known as androgenesis and refers to the process of redirection of normal pollen development (gametophytic pathway) towards the embryo formation (sporophytic). This review mainly deals with the current knowledge of stress and developmental aspects of induction of androgenesis. The crucial role of stress inductive treatment together with changes in cell polarity are discussed in relation to other relevant biological systems. The intriguing speculations are made on the basis of these comparisons which may point out the direction of future investigations. 相似文献

Summary In tis androgenic response, maize is considered to be a recalcitrant plant. We used mechanically isolated microspores of maize
genotype A18 to establish a responsive microspore culture of maize. Morphological events occurring during the first days of
maize androgenesis in a microspore culture were observed and described, and some morphological markers for distinguishing
between embryogenic microspores and nonembryogenic microspores were identified. It was found that the enlargement of microspores
during the first days in culture and the ‘star-like’ organization of the cytoplasm inside the microspore are connected with
reprogramming of the developmental pathway in maize microspores. Some differences were also found in the surface wall architecture
of embryogenic microspores. Fertile plants were successfully recovered from microspore-originated structures. 相似文献

The participation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in luminescence (chemiluminescence and autofluorescence induced by ultraviolet light of 360-380 nm) was analyzed. Microspores, the pollen (male gametophyte) of Hippeastrum hybridum, Philadelphus grandiflorus, and Betula verrucosa and vegetative microspores of the spore-breeding plant Equisetum arvense served as models. It was found that the addition of the chemiluminescent probe lucigenin, which luminesces in the presence of superoxide anionradicals, leads to intensive chemiluminescence of microspores. No emission was observed in the absence of lucigenin and in the presence of the dye luminol as a chemiluminescent probe. The emission decreased significantly if superoxide dismutase, an enzyme of the superoxide anionradical dismutation during which this radical disappeared, was added before the dye addition. The autofluorescence intensity of microspores decreased in the presence of both superoxide dismutase and peroxidase, an enzyme destroying hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides. The most significant effect was noted after the addition of peroxidase, which indicates a greater contribution of peroxides to this type of emission. The fumigation with ozone, which increases the amount of ROS on the cell surface, enhanced the intensity of the chemiluminescence of microspores with lucigenin, but decreased the intensity of the autofluorescence of microspores. Exogenous peroxides (hydrogen peroxide and tert-butylhydroperoxide) stimulated the autofluorescence of pollen and vegetative spores in a concentration-dependent manner. It was shown that the formation of ROS contributes to the luminescence of plant microspores, which reflects their functional state. 相似文献

Oxidative stress and free radical production have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease, where low levels of the antioxidant vitamin C (ascorbate) have been shown to be associated with the disease. In this study, neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were treated with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of ascorbate in order to elucidate the mechanism(s) of protection against oxidative stress afforded by ascorbate. Protein oxidation, glutathione levels, cell viability and the effects on the proteome and its oxidized counterpart were monitored. SH-SY5Y cells treated with ascorbate prior to co-incubation with peroxide showed increased viability in comparison to cells treated with peroxide alone. This dual treatment also caused an increase in protein carbonyl content and a decrease in glutathione levels within the cells. Proteins, extracted from SH-SY5Y cells that were treated with either ascorbate or peroxide alone or with ascorbate prior to peroxide, were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and analyzed for oxidation. Co-incubation for 24 hours decreased the number of oxidised proteins (e.g. acyl CoA oxidase 3) and induced brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. Enhanced expression of BDNF may contribute to the protective effects of ascorbate against oxidative stress in neuronal cells. 相似文献

This paper presents an analysis of Holm oak pollen proteome, together with an evaluation of the potentiality that a proteomic approach may have in the provenance variability assessment. Proteins were extracted from pollen of four Holm oak provenances, and they were analyzed by gel-based (1- and 2-DE in combination with MALDI-TOF/TOF) and gel-free (nLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS) approaches. A comparison of 1- and 2-DE protein profiles of the four provenances revealed significant differences, both qualitative and quantitative, in abundance (18 bands and 16 spots, respectively). Multivariate statistical analysis carried out on bands and spots clearly showed distinct associations between provenances, which highlight their geographical origins. A total of 100 spots selected from the 402 spots observed on 2-DE gels were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF. Moreover, a complementary gel-free shotgun approach was performed by nLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS. The identified proteins were classified according to biological processes, and most proteins in both approaches were related to metabolism and defense/stress processes. The nLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS analysis allowed us the identification of proteins belonging to the cell wall and division, transport and translation categories. Besides providing the first reference map of Holm oak pollen, our results confirm previous studies based on morphological observations and acorn proteomic analysis. Moreover, our data support the valuable use of proteomic techniques as phylogenetic tool in plant studies. 相似文献

The effects of adding hydrogen peroxide and peroxidase to wheat-flour dough on dityrosine formation and mixing characteristics were investigated. Dityrosine in wheat-flour dough was identified by HPLC with a fluorescence detector and by LC/MS/MS. Formation of dityrosine increased with the addition of hydrogen peroxide, and hydrogen peroxide plus peroxidase, to wheat-flour dough, while the addition of peroxidase had no effect on the amount of dityrosine formed. The mixing curve obtained by a doughgraph changed with the addition of hydrogen peroxide, and hydrogen peroxide plus peroxidase; the peak time was significantly delayed and the dough development time was extended. We found that dityrosine cross-links in wheat-flour dough increased with the addition of peroxidase plus hydrogen peroxide. It is thought that these cross-links can lead to polymerization of the proteins in wheat-flour dough. 相似文献

Inactivation of Ascorbate Peroxidase in Spinach Chloroplasts on Dark Addition of Hydrogen Peroxide: Its Protection by Ascorbate 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Dark addition of hydrogen peroxide to intact spinach chloroplastsresulted in the inactivation of ascorbate peroxidase accompaniedby a decrease in ascorbate contents. This was also the casein reconstituted chloroplasts containing ascorbate, NADP+, NAD+and ferredoxin. The addition of hydrogen peroxide during light,however, showed little effect on ascorbate contents and ascorbateperoxidase activity in either the intact or reconstituted chloroplasts.In contrast to ascorbate peroxidase, the enzymes participatingin the regeneration of ascorbate in chloroplasts (monodehydroascorbatereductase, dehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase)were not affected by the dark addition of hydrogen peroxide.Ascorbate contents increased again by illumination of the chloroplastsafter the dark addition of hydrogen peroxide. These resultsshow that the inactivation of the hydrogen peroxide scavengingsystem on dark addition of hydrogen peroxide [Anderson et al.(1983) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 724: 69, Asada and Badger (1984)Plant & Cell Physiol. 25: 1169] is caused by the loss ofascorbate peroxidase activity. Ascorbate peroxidase activitywas rapidly lost in ascorbate-depleted medium, and protectedby its electron donors, ascorbate, isoascorbate, guaiacol andpyrogallol, but not by GSH, NAD(P)H and ferredoxin.

Oxidative stress responses were tested in the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC 7942 (R2). Cells were exposed to hydrogen peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide and high light intensities. Activities of ascorbate peroxidase and catalase were correlated with the extent and time-course of oxidative stresses. Ascorbate peroxidase was found to be the major enzyme involved in the removal of hydrogen peroxide under the tested oxidative stresses. Catalase activity was inhibited in cells treated with high H2O2 concentrations, and was not induced under photo-oxidative stress. Regeneration of ascorbate in peroxide-treated cells was found to involve mainly monodehydroascorbate reductase and to a lesser extent dehydroascorbate reductase. The induction of the antioxidative enzymes was dependent on light and was inhibited by chloramphenicol. Peroxide treatment was found to induce the synthesis of eight proteins, four of which were also induced by heat shock.Abbreviations ASC

Time-lapse tracking of barley androgenesis reveals position-determined cell death within pro-embryos 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Following abiotic stress to induce barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) androgenesis, the development of 794 enlarged microspores in culture was monitored by time-lapse tracking. In total, 11% of the microspores tracked developed into embryo-like structures (type-I pathway), 36% formed multicellular structures (type-II pathway) and 53% of the microspores followed gametophytic divisions, accumulated starch and died in the first days of tracking (type-III pathway). Despite the microspore fate, enlarged microspores showed similar morphologies directly after stress treatment. Ultrastructural analysis, however, revealed two morphologically distinct cell types. Cells with a thin intine layer and an undifferentiated cytoplasm after stress treatment were associated with type-I and type-II pathways, whereas the presence of differentiated amyloplasts and a thick intine layer were associated with the type-III pathway. Tracking revealed that the first morphological change associated with embryogenic potential was a star-like morphology, which was a transitory stage between uninucleate vacuolated microspores after stress and the initiation of cell division. The difference between type-I and type-II pathways was observed during the time they displayed the star-like morphology. During the transition phase, embryo-like structures in the type-I pathway were always released out of the exine wall at the opposite side of the pollen germ pore, whereas in the type-II pathway multicellular structures were unable to break the exine and to release embryo-like structures. Moreover, by combining viability studies with cell tracking, we show that release of embryo-like structures was preceded by a decrease in viability of the cells positioned at the site of exine wall rupture. These cells were also positively stained by Sytox orange, a cell death indicator. Thereby, we demonstrate, for the first time, that a position-determined cell death process marks the transition from a multicellular structure into an embryo-like structure during barley androgenesis. 相似文献

The induction of the antioxidative enzymes was light dependent and was inhibited by chloramphenicol. 相似文献
