Enhancement of the Stomatal Response to Blue Light by Red Light, Reduced Intercellular Concentrations of CO(2), and Low Vapor Pressure Differences

The effects of environmental parameters on the blue light response of stomata were studied by quantifying transient increases in stomatal conductance in Commelina communis following 15 seconds by 0.100 millimole per square meter per second pulses of blue light. Because conductance increases were not observed following red light pulses of the same or greater (30 seconds by 0.200 millimole per square meter per second) fluences, the responses observed could be reliably attributed to the specific blue light response of the guard cells, rather than to guard cell chlorophyll. In both Paphiopedilum harrisianum, which lacks guard cell chloroplasts, and Commelina, the blue light response was enhanced by 0.263 millimole per square meter per second continuous background red light. Thus, the blue light response and its enhancement do not require energy derived from red-light-driven photophosphorylation by the guard cell chloroplasts. In Commelina, reduction of the intercellular concentration of CO₂ by manipulation of ambient CO₂ concentrations resulted in an enhanced blue light response. In both Commelina and Paphiopedilum, the blue light response was decreased by an increased vapor pressure difference. The magnitude of blue-light-specific stomatal opening thus appears to be sensitive to environmental conditions that affect the carbon and water status of the plant.

Sugar Concentrations in Guard Cells of Vicia faba Illuminated with Red or Blue Light : Analysis by High Performance Liquid Chromatography

Concentrations of soluble sugars in guard cells in detached, sonicated epidermis from Vicia faba leaves were analyzed quantitatively by high performance liquid chromatography to determine the extent to which sugars could contribute to changes in the osmotic potentials of guard cells during stomatal opening. Stomata were illuminated over a period of 4 hours with saturating levels of red or blue light, or a combination of red and blue light. When stomata were irradiated for 3 hours with red light (50 micromoles per square meter per second) in a solution of 5 millimolar KCl and 0.1 millimolar CaCl₂, stomatal apertures increased a net maximum of 6.7 micrometers and the concentration of total soluble sugar was 289 femtomoles per guard cell (70% sucrose, 30% fructose). In an identical solution, 2.5 hours of irradiation with 25 micromoles per square meter per second of blue light caused a maximum net increase of 7.1 micrometers in stomatal aperture and the total soluble sugar concentration was 550 femtomoles per guard cell (91% sucrose, 9% fructose). Illumination with blue light at 25 micromoles per square meter per second in a solution lacking KCl caused a maximum net increase in stomatal aperture of 3.5 micrometers and the sugar concentration was 382 femtomoles per guard cell (82% sucrose, 18% fructose). In dual beam experiments, stomata irradiated with 50 micromoles per square meter per second of red light opened steadily with a concomitant increase in sugar production. Addition of 25 micromoles per square meter per second of blue light caused a further net gain of 3.7 micrometers in stomatal aperture and, after 2 hours, sugar concentrations had increased by an additional 138 femtomoles per guard cell. Experiments with 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU) were performed with epidermis illuminated with 50 micromoles per square meter per second of red light or with 25 micromoles per square meter per second of blue light in solutions containing or lacking KCl. DCMU completely inhibited sugar production under red light, had no effect on guard cell sugar production under blue light when KCl was present, and inhibited sugar production by about 50% when guard cells were illuminated with blue light in solutions lacking KCl. We conclude that soluble sugars can contribute significantly to the osmoregulation of guard cells in detached leaf epidermis of V. faba. These results are consistent with the operation of two different sugar-producing pathways in guard cells: a photosynthetic carbon reduction pathway and a pathway of blue light-induced starch degradation.

Circadian Rhythms in Stomatal Responsiveness to Red and Blue Light

Stomata of many plants have circadian rhythms in responsiveness to environmental cues as well as circadian rhythms in aperture. Stomatal responses to red light and blue light are mediated by photosynthetic photoreceptors; responses to blue light are additionally controlled by a specific blue-light photoreceptor. This paper describes circadian rhythmic aspects of stomatal responsiveness to red and blue light in Vicia faba. Plants were exposed to a repeated light:dark regime of 1.5:2.5 h for a total of 48 h, and because the plants could not entrain to this short light:dark cycle, circadian rhythms were able to "free run" as if in continuous light. The rhythm in the stomatal conductance established during the 1.5-h light periods was caused both by a rhythm in sensitivity to light and by a rhythm in the stomatal conductance established during the preceding 2.5-h dark periods. Both rhythms peaked during the middle of the subjective day. Although the stomatal response to blue light is greater than the response to red light at all times of day, there was no discernible difference in period, phase, or amplitude of the rhythm in sensitivity to the two light qualities. We observed no circadian rhythmicity in net carbon assimilation with the 1.5:2.5 h light regime for either red or blue light. In continuous white light, small rhythmic changes in photosynthetic assimilation were observed, but at relatively high light levels, and these appeared to be attributable largely to changes in internal CO2 availability governed by stomatal conductance.     

UVB Irradiation Regulates ERK1/2- and p53-Dependent Thrombomodulin Expression in Human Keratinocytes

Thrombomodulin (TM) is highly expressed in endothelial cells and acts as a natural anticoagulation factor to maintain circulation homeostasis. TM is an interesting molecule with many physiological functions, including anti-inflammation, anti-thrombosis, and carcinogenesis inhibition. TM can also be detected on the spinous layer of epidermal keratinocytes. However, the role of epidermal TM is still under investigation. In this study, we investigated keratinocyte TM expression and regulation in response to sub-cytotoxic ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation. Oxidative stress was assessed with DCF and the results revealed that UVB irradiation significantly and dose-dependently augmented reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in HaCaT cells. In addition, low-dose UVB irradiation decreased TM mRNA and protein levels. Blocking ROS production and ERK activation prevented UVB-induced TM down-regulation. The nuclear p53 accumulation and TM promoter binding was observed within 3 h after UVB exposure. Small interfering RNA-mediated p53 knockdown disrupted the UVB-mediated TM protein down-regulation. Our study demonstrates that UVB irradiation results in ROS accumulation and ERK activation, which causes the nuclear p53 accumulation and TM promoter binding to inhibit TM expression. This study provides novel evidence demonstrating that p53 serves as a key regulator of keratinocyte TM expression.     

Sporophore Development in Sphaerobolus: Effect of Blue and Red Light

Experiments are described which indicate that, although lightof short wavelength (400–500 mµ) is necessary forover-all sporophore development, during the last days of theprocess light of longer wavelength (640–720 mµ)accelerates development more than blue light (400–500mµ) does. It is shown that at 20° C this effect ofthe longer rays of light begins to be exerted 8 to 10 days aftersporophore initiation and only a very few days before maturity.

Barley Leaf Unfolding under Mixtures of Red and Blue Light

Barley leaf unfolding is stimulated by mixed red and blue light. However, the stimulation from mixed light is attenuated when compared with the stimulation from red light alone, particularly for low intensities of the mixed light and for short irradiation times. For higher light intensity mixtures of red and blue light and for longer irradiation times, the blue light enhances the stimulation from red light and vice versa. This supports the assumption that the blue light effect in this case is also mediated by the phytochrome system. Furthermore the present findings point to the possibility of competitive reactions caused by red and blue light in the excitation of phytochrome.

Carotenoid Synthesis in Leaves of Wheat after Irradiation by Red Light

A short inipulse of red light induces a Carotenoid synthesis in dark-grown wheat leaves. This effect is particularly evident if the leaves, having received a short light impulse, are kept in darkness for six hours prior to a period of continuous irradiation for six hours. During this second period of irradiation much more carotenoids are formed than during an irradiation period of the same length, but not preceded by a pre-irradiation. The main increase in pigment contents can be brought back to β-carotene. For this pigment the short light impulse nearly doubles the pigment synthesis during a subsequent dark and light period of six + six hours as compared to the amount formed during six hours of light without pre-irradiation.     

Water-Filtered Infrared A Irradiation in Combination with Visible Light Inhibits Acute Chlamydial Infection

New therapeutic strategies are needed to overcome drawbacks in treatment of infections with intracellular bacteria. Chlamydiaceae are Gram-negative bacteria implicated in acute and chronic diseases such as abortion in animals and trachoma in humans. Water-filtered infrared A (wIRA) is short wavelength infrared radiation with a spectrum ranging from 780 to 1400 nm. In clinical settings, wIRA alone and in combination with visible light (VIS) has proven its efficacy in acute and chronic wound healing processes. This is the first study to demonstrate that wIRA irradiation combined with VIS (wIRA/VIS) diminishes recovery of infectious elementary bodies (EBs) of both intra- and extracellular Chlamydia (C.) in two different cell lines (Vero, HeLa) regardless of the chlamydial strain (C. pecorum, C. trachomatis serovar E) as shown by indirect immunofluorescence and titration by subpassage. Moreover, a single exposure to wIRA/VIS at 40 hours post infection (hpi) led to a significant reduction of C. pecorum inclusion frequency in Vero cells and C. trachomatis in HeLa cells, respectively. A triple dose of irradiation (24, 36, 40 hpi) during the course of C. trachomatis infection further reduced chlamydial inclusion frequency in HeLa cells without inducing the chlamydial persistence/stress response, as ascertained by electron microscopy. Irradiation of host cells (HeLa, Vero) neither affected cell viability nor induced any molecular markers of cytotoxicity as investigated by Alamar blue assay and Western blot analysis. Chlamydial infection, irradiation, and the combination of both showed a similar release pattern of a subset of pro-inflammatory cytokines (MIF/GIF, Serpin E1, RANTES, IL-6, IL-8) and chemokines (IL-16, IP-10, ENA-78, MIG, MIP-1α/β) from host cells. Initial investigation into the mechanism indicated possible thermal effects on Chlamydia due to irradiation. In summary, we demonstrate a non-chemical reduction of chlamydial infection using the combination of water-filtered infrared A and visible light.     

拟南芥PRRs基因在红光和蓝光信号转导中的作用初探

以拟南芥为材料,在红光和蓝光下对PRRs(pseudo-response regulators)突变体prr5p、rr7、prr9和toc1及其野生型的下胚轴表型进行比较观察,并采用实时定量PCR方法对突变体中光信号通路相关基因ZTL(zeitlupe)和CO(constans)的节律表达进行分析.结果表明:在红光下,prr5和toc1的下胚轴长度比野生型显著增长,在蓝光下,prr7p、rr9和toc1较野生型短,表明突变体降低了拟南芥对红光的敏感性,却增强了对蓝光的敏感性.红光和蓝光下,PRRs突变体中ZTL和CO的mRNA节律表达与野生型明显不同,其中红光下prr5和prr7、蓝光下prr5和toc1中的ZTLmRNA的表达显著下降且节律消失;红光下prr7和prr9以及蓝光下prr5突变体中的COmRNA表现基本无节律.因此推测,PRRs与ZTL的相互作用很可能在红光和蓝光信号转导途径中发挥作用,且PRRs基因极有可能参与了红光和蓝光对CO的调控.     

Regulation of Transpiration in Avena. Responses to Red and Blue Light Steps

The transpiration responses of primary Arena leaves to red and blue light steps were investigated. The response to a red light step was a so-called slow response (with a rise time of about 8 min). The response to a blue light step consisted of both a slow, and a rapid response (with a rise time of about 2 min). CO₂-free air outside the leaf eliminated only the slow response, i.e. in CO₂-free ait the plant responded to blue light steps but not to red ones. A short exposure of red light prior to a blue light step enhanced the rapid response. The same enhancement of the rapid response could be achieved by means of a temporary pretreatment with CO₂-free air. The magnitude of the rapid response was dependent on the blue light irradiance and no threshold effects could be detected. — The experimental results are discussed by means of a model, based on stomatal regulation by, ion transport between the subsidiary cells and the guard cells. It is suggested that the slow transpiration response is due to CO₂-regulation of the stomatal aperture and that the rapid response reflect a CO₂-independent blue light sensitive process, which acts directly on the ion transport through the subsidiary and guard cell membranes.     

The Effect of Blue and Red Light on NADP-linked Glyceraldehydephosphate Dehydrogenases in Excised Roots

d -Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate: NADP oxidoreductasc (phosphorylating), EC 1.2. 1.13, is formed in excised roots of wheat and pea grown in blue light, but not in red light or darkness. The nonphosphorylating d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate: NADP oxidoreductase, EC 1.2.1.9, if present at all, constitutes only a minor fraction of the total activity. In wheat roots the time-course for increase in enzyme activity agrees completely with the time course for increase in chlorophyll content, with a lag phase of 3 days for both. The results for pea roots are similar, but less clear-cut due to interfering enzymes. The results are discussed with reference to a previously published scheme for chloroplast development.     

姜黄素联合索拉菲尼对肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞增殖及自噬的影响

目的:研究姜黄素联合索拉菲尼对肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞增殖及自噬的影响。方法:体外培养肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞,用不同浓度姜黄素(0、10、20、30、40、50 mmol/L)、不同浓度索拉菲尼(0、5、10、15、20μmol/L)及两药联合处理肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞24 h后,用CCK8实验检测细胞存活率。用姜黄素30 mmol/L、索拉菲尼10μmol/L及两药联合处理肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞24 h后,用荧光定量PCR检测自噬相关信号通路关键蛋白AKT、mTOR及自噬相关蛋白LC3-Ⅱ的mRNA表达情况。结果:姜黄素、索拉菲尼及两药联合对HepG-2细胞均有增殖抑制作用,且呈浓度依赖性。与姜黄素或索拉菲尼单药组相比,姜黄素联合索拉菲尼组能显著抑制肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞的增殖(P0.001);能显著抑制AKT、mTOR的mRNA表达而增加自噬相关蛋白LC3-Ⅱ的mRNA的表达(P0.001)。结论:姜黄素联合索拉菲尼组抑制肝癌细胞系HepG-2细胞增殖作用较单药组明显增强,两药联合协同诱导肝癌细胞系HepG2细胞产生自噬,其作用机制可能与抑制PI3K/AKT/mTOR信号通路有关。
