外源Spd对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化及质子泵活性的影响

以较为耐热的黄瓜品种‘津春4号’为试材,在人工气候箱中,采用石英砂培养加营养液浇灌的栽培方式,研究了叶面喷施外源亚精胺(Spd)对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化程度、质子泵活性及其基因表达的影响.结果表明:高温胁迫下,外源Spd促进黄瓜幼苗株高、茎粗、干、鲜质量和叶面积显著增加,有效抑制叶片相对电导率、丙二醛(MDA)含量和脂氧合酶(LOX)活性的升高,有助于提高叶片细胞质膜和液泡膜H+ -ATPase活性,但在基因表达水平上无显著差异.外源Spd可显著降低黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化程度,提高质子泵活性,从而稳定膜的结构和功能,缓解高温胁迫对黄瓜幼苗造成的伤害,提高幼苗对高温胁迫的耐性.     

玉米及马齿苋叶片SOD活性诱导研究

以玉米幼苗及马齿苋作材料,通过甘露醇、H2O2、臭氧和强光等胁迫后,用NBT光化还原抑制法测定叶中SOD活性的变化。臭氧和强光能诱导玉米叶片SOD活性增加。0.5mol／L甘露醇处理玉米叶片12h,SOD活性上升,至48h后下降;在该甘露醇溶液中另外加入10^-2mol/L H2O2;处理12h后SOD活性基本不变。对玉米叶片单独用10^-2mol/L H2O2诱导,30min内SOD活性上升到最高值,随着处理时间的延长又逐渐下降。用耐强光、耐干旱的野生马齿苋作为材料,与玉米相比,其叶片SOD基础活性低于后者;若予以正午强光结合渗透胁迫2h,其叶中SOD活性增幅超过玉米,从种间比较的角度旁证了SOD在抗逆性中的作用。推测植物中存在比活性氧更为直接的物理诱导机制。     

分子氢和氧对受高温胁迫蓝藻固氮活性的影响

Ａｎａｂａｅｎａ７１２０经高温处理后,固氮活性下降,对氧的敏感度增大,增大程度随氧浓度增高而递增。高温胁迫下,分子氢与对正常条件下生长的蓝藻一样可以削弱或消除氧对固氮的伤害,氢的此种行为在光照下和黑暗中表现相似,其良好作用比正常生长蓝藻显著,添加光合抑制剂。ＣＯ２或Ｎ２时亦如何。有外源蔗糖时,氢的良好作用不表现。经ＣＯ或Ｃ２Ｈ２处理的蓝藻,氢在其固氮活性受氧伤害时的良好作用消失。

高温逆境下植物叶片衰老机理研究进展

叶片衰老是植物叶片发育的最后阶段,其作为一个主动的生理过程,对植物体内的营养循环再利用以及种子形成具有重要的生理意义。在植物的生长过程中,多种环境因素会影响叶片衰老进程。高温是影响叶片衰老最重要的环境因素之一。随着温室效应的加剧,研究高温胁迫下叶片衰老的调节机制对于通过调控叶片衰老进程,从而增加植物产量具有重要意义。本文对高温胁迫下叶绿体及类囊体膜的损伤、光合电子传递活力的改变、活性氧累积、光合作用相关蛋白质降解及细胞自噬方面的研究进展进行了综述。     

盐胁迫下木榄幼苗叶片的解剖学变化

对梯度盐度下木榄(Bruguiera gymnorrhiza)幼苗叶解剖特征进行观察,并分析木榄适应盐胁迫的形态学变化特点以及盐胁迫对植物生长的影响.在0‰～50‰盐度范围内,木榄胚轴均能正常萌发,但幼苗高度、鲜重以及叶面积与培养盐度之间存在着明显的负相关.随着盐度的增加,木榄叶的上(下)角质层和上(下)表皮层增厚,单宁细胞密度增大,上(下)内皮层变薄,叶肉细胞的胞间隙缩小;栅栏组织厚度因细胞的长度和宽度减小而变薄,而海绵组织厚度与培养盐度之问无明显的相关性,栅栏组织/海绵组织的比率下降.扫描电镜下栅栏组织细胞中的叶绿体数量和形态未见明显的变化,但叶绿体在细胞中的位置发生了改变.因此,盐胁迫下叶片栅栏组织厚度的下降、海绵组织中胞间隙的减少以及叶肉细胞中叶绿体的分布变化可能是导致植株光合效率下降和幼苗生长受阻的重要原因.     

高温胁迫对葡萄幼树叶绿素荧光特性和抗氧化酶活性的影响

为了探讨短期和长期高温处理后葡萄生理应答反应,本研究在人工气候室环境中模拟夏季高温发生时间段(10:00~16:00)对一年生盆栽葡萄‘夏黑’进行25°C、35°C、45°C温度处理,测定处理6 h时(短期)和150 h时(长期)功能叶片的叶绿素荧光动力学及抗氧化酶活性。结果显示:在35°C处理6 h时‘夏黑’叶片ΨEo、ΦEo、ETo/RC显著上升;45°C处理6 h时‘夏黑’各荧光参数表现出显著性差异,而在150 h时主要荧光参数恢复至原初水平;高温处理下‘夏黑’的叶绿素含量和SOD酶活增长趋势较不明显;35°C/45°C处理均导致抗氧化酶活性POD和CAT以及过氧化物产物MDA(丙二醇)表现出较强的增长趋势。综上可知,短期高温处理(6 h)‘夏黑’叶片PSII活性遭到破坏,但是长期高温处理(150 h)‘夏黑’的PSII活性得到恢复,推测‘夏黑’有较强高温逆境适应能力;高温逆境打破‘夏黑’氧化还原平衡,MDA含量增加。这些结果对于了解葡萄在高温胁迫下的耐受能力具有参考价值。

Role of Protein Synthesis in Recovering Nitrate Reductase Activity in Wheat Leaves Exposed to Heat Stress

Heating intact leaves of 14–15-day-old seedlings of wheat (Triticum aestivumL.), cv. Albidum 29, for 10 min at 44–45°C brought about a decrease in nitrate reductase activity by 50–90% of the initial level. The complete recovery of the enzyme activity occurred one to two days after the plants were returned to normal temperature conditions. Darkening plants or adding cycloheximide to the nutrient medium did not interfere with the recovery of nitrate reductase activity. The plants grown in darkness or on a nitrate-free medium were devoid of nitrate reductase activity. The transfer of these plants to the light or the addition of nitrate resulted in the induction of enzyme activity. In the untreated plants, nitrate reductase activity attained the control level in 48 h; in the heated plants, this process was considerably retarded. After heating, the activity of the preexisting enzyme recovered at a higher rate than the ability for enzyme induction. This means that the reactivation of nitrate reductase occurred even when the induction of the enzyme was almost entirely suppressed. We conclude that after the short-term effect of high temperatures, the functional activity of nitrate reductase may recover without the de novosynthesis of the enzyme protein.

Characterization of Protein Kinases in Apple and Grape During Fruit Development

The protein kinases were identified at different developmental stages of apple (Malus domestica L. Borth. cv. Red Starking) and grape (Vitis vinifera L. × V.lubrusca L. cv. Kyoho) fruit, and these protein kinases were found to be greatly activated by Ca2+. This demonstrated that calcium-dependent protein kinase plays an important role in apple and grape fruits. The results also showed that calmodulin (CaM) had no stimulation effect, but the CaM antagonists, such as calmidazolium, W7 and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), had some inhibitory effects on the activities of this kind of protein kinase in both fruits, indicating that the detected protein kinases may be a kind of calmodulin-like domain protein kinase or calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK). There were distinct differences between apple and grape fruits, both in the characteristics and in the activity evolution patterns of the protein kinases during fruit development. The activity of calcium-dependent protein kinase was little changed in the three stages of apple fruit development, while in grape fruit the activity of this protein kinase was much higher in stage Ⅱ than those in stage Ⅰ and stage Ⅲ. The calcium-dependent protein kinase in apple fruits was strongly activated by Mn2+, and it was sensitive to heat treatment, but in grape fruits it was neither stimulated by Mn2+ nor sensitive to high temperature. Besides, phosphatidyl-serine (PS) had little effect on the activities of calcium-dependent protein kinase in grape fruits, but had stimulative effects in apple fruits. It was thus proposed that there might be a kind of calcium- and phosphatide-activated protein kinase, i.e., PKC, in apple fruits. The differences among the kinds, characteristics and the activity evolution patterns of protein kinases during apple and grape fruit development, suggest that the protein kinases may be involved in the process of fruit development.     

Phosphorylation of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein and Vimentin by Cytoskeletal-Associated Intermediate Filament Protein Kinase Activity in Astrocytes

These studies describe a cytoskeletal-associated protein kinase activity in astrocytes that phosphorylated the intermediate filament proteins glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vimentin and that appeared to be distinct from protein kinase C (PK-C) and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PK-A). The cytoskeletal-associated kinase activity phosphorylated intermediate filament proteins in the presence of 10 mM MgCl2 and produced an even greater increase in 32P incorporation into these proteins in the presence of calcium/calmodulin. Tryptic peptide mapping of phosphorylated intermediate filament proteins showed that the intermediate filament protein kinase activity produced unique phosphopeptide maps, in both the presence and the absence of calcium/calmodulin, as compared to that of PK-C and PK-A, although there were some common sites of phosphorylation among the kinases. In addition, it was determined that the intermediate filament protein kinase activity phosphorylated both serine and threonine residues of the intermediate filament proteins, vimentin and GFAP. However, the relative proportion of serine and threonine residues phosphorylated varied depending on the presence or absence of calcium/calmodulin. The magnesium-dependent activity produced the highest proportion of threonine phosphorylation, suggesting that the calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase activity acts mainly at serine residues. PK-A and PK-C phosphorylated mainly serine residues. Also, the intermediate filament protein kinase activity phosphorylated both the N-and the C-terminal domains of vimentin and the N-terminal domain of GFAP. In contrast, both PK-C and PK-A are known to phosphorylate the N-terminal domains of both proteins.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Vasopressin Stimulates the Induction of Heat Shock Protein 27 and αB-Crystallin via Protein Kinase C Activation in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

In the present study, we examined the effect of vasopressin on the induction of the low-molecular-weight heat shock proteins heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) and αB-crystallin in an aortic smooth muscle cell line, A10 cells. Vasopressin induced a time-dependent accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin. The stimulatory effects of vasopressin were dose-dependent over the range 0.1 nmol/L to 0.1 μmol/L. The EC₅₀values for vasopressin were 2 (HSP27) and 4 nmol/L (αB-crystallin). Vasopressin induced increases in the levels of the mRNAs for HSP27 and αB-crystallin. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), a protein kinase C (PKC)-activating phorbol ester, induced an accumulation of HSP27 (EC₅₀, 20 nmol/L) and αB-crystallin (EC₅₀, 2 nmol/L). In contrast, 4α-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, a non-PKC-activating phorbol ester, had no such effect. Staurosporine and calphostin C, inhibitors of PKC, significantly reduced the vasopressin-induced accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin as well as that induced by TPA. BAPTA/AM and TMB-8, inhibitors of intracellular Ca²⁺mobilization, significantly reduced the vasopressin-induced accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin. These results strongly suggest that vasopressin stimulates the induction of HSP27 and αB-crystallin via PKC activation in vascular smooth muscle cells and that this effect of vasopressin is dependent on intracellular Ca²⁺mobilization.
