The biosynthesis of the flavonolignan silymarin, a constitutive compound of the fruits of Silybum marianum with strong antihepatotoxic and hepatoprotective activities, is severely reduced in cell cultures of this species. It is well known that elicitation is one of the strategies employed to increase accumulation of secondary metabolites. Our study here reports on the effect of several compounds on the production of silymarin in S. marianum cultures. Yeast extract (YE), chitin and chitosan were compared with respect to their effects on silymarin accumulation in S. marianum suspensions and only yeast extract stimulated production. Jasmonic acid (JA) potentiated the yeast extract effect. One of the jasmonic acid derivatives, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), strongly promoted the accumulation of silymarin. Methyl jasmonate acted in a number of steps of the metabolic pathway of flavonolignans and its stimulating effect was totally dependent of "de novo" protein synthesis. Chalcone synthase (CHS) activity was enhanced by methyl jasmonate; however there did not appear to be a temporal relationship between silymarin accumulation and increase in enzyme activity. Also, this increase was not blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide (CH). This study indicates that elicitor treatment promotes secondary metabolite production in S. marianum cultures and that jasmonic acid and its functional analogue plays a critical role in elicitation.  相似文献

Elimination of calcium ions from the medium of cell cultures of Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn increased flavonolignan production. Silymarin accumulation was not altered by treatment of cultures with the calcium ionophore A23187. The specific Ca2+ chelator, EGTA, enhanced the silymarin content in cells by 200%, and its secretion by 3-4 times. The inorganic ion La3+, as well as the calcium channel inhibitor verapamil, also stimulated production. Several reagents known to block intracellular calcium movement, such as ruthenium red, thapsigargin and TMB-8 appreciably increased silymarin accumulation. These results suggest that inhibition of external and internal calcium fluxes plays a significant role in flavonolignan metabolism of S. marianum cell cultures.  相似文献

A comprehensive metabolomic profiling of Silybum marianum (L.) Gaernt cell cultures elicited with yeast extract or methyl jasmonate for the production of silymarin was carried out using one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. With these techniques we were able to detect both temporal quantitative variations in the metabolite pool in yeast extract-elicited cultures and qualitative differences in cultures treated with the two types of elicitors. Yeast extract and methyl jasmonate caused a metabolic reprogramming that affected amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism; upon elicitation sucrose decreased and glucose levels increased, these changes being dependent on "de novo" protein synthesis. Also dependent on protein synthesis were the increase seen in alanine and glutamine in elicited cultures. Yeast extract differentially acted on threonine and valine metabolism and promoted accumulation of choline and alpha-linolenic acid in cells thus suggesting its action on membranes and the involvement of the octadecanoid pathway in the induction of silymarin in S. marianum cultures. Phenylpropanoid metabolism was altered by elicitation but, depending on elicitor, different phenylpropanoid profile was produced. The results obtained in this study will permit in the future to identify candidate components of the signalling pathway involved in the stimulation of the constitutive pathway of silymarin.  相似文献

Production of silymarin and the effect of the elicitor, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), was monitored in cell cultures of Silybum marianum over 4 years. Silymarin concentrations gradually declined after prolonged subculture, making the success of elicitor strategy limited in long-term cultures. The continuous presence of MeJA in cultures for an extended period was necessary for induction of silymarin accumulation. A repeated elicitor strategy was not a good option for improving silymarin productivity in batch cultures. Removal of medium from elicited cultures and addition of fresh medium avoided the toxic effects of elicitor accumulation, allowing the system to respond to a repeated MeJA treatment without loss of productivity.  相似文献

Treatment of Silybum marianum cell cultures with methyl jasmonate elicits the production of the antihepatotoxic drug silymarin and its release into the culture medium. In this work, we investigated the involvement of peroxidases (EC 1.11.1.7; donor hydrogen peroxidase oxido-reductase) in silymarin turnover in cell cultures as well as the influence of elicitation on the activity towards several substrates. Peroxidases from cell extracts and, to a higher degree from the spent medium, used the silymarin precursors taxifolin and coniferyl alcohol as substrates. Silymarin compounds were also degraded by suspension culture peroxidases; however, the oxidation efficiency was not modified by elicitation. S. marianum peroxidases were able to catalyse the oxidative coupling of taxifolin and coniferyl alcohol to silybinins. The synthetic activity was mainly associated with the extracellular compartment and as before, methyl jasmonate did not modify oxidative coupling activity. Changes in the isoenzyme profiles were not observed in elicited cultures.  相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatography coupled to ultraviolet photodiode array detection and ion-trap mass spectrometry was used to analyze the intra- and extracellular secondary product metabolome of Medicago truncatula cell suspension cultures responding to yeast elicitor (YE) or methyl jasmonate (MeJA). Data analysis revealed three phases of intracellular response to YE: a transient response in mainly (iso)flavonoid metabolites such as formononetin and biochanin-A that peaked at 12 to 18 h following elicitation and then declined; a sustained response through 48 h for compounds such as medicarpin and daidzin; and a lesser delayed and protracted response starting at 24 h postelicitation, e.g. genistein diglucoside. In contrast, most compounds excreted to the culture medium reached maximum levels at 6 to 12 h postelicitation and returned to basal levels by 24 h. The response to MeJA differed significantly from that to YE. Although both resulted in accumulation of the phytoalexin medicarpin, coordinated increases in isoflavonoid precursors were only observed for YE and not MeJA-treated cells. However, MeJA treatment resulted in a correlated decline in isoflavone glucosides, and did not induce the secretion of metabolites into the culture medium. Three novel methylated isoflavones, 7-hydroxy-6,4'-dimethoxyisoflavone (afrormosin), 6-hydroxy-7,4'-dimethoxyisoflavone (alfalone), and 5,7-dihydroxy-4',6-dimethoxy isoflavone (irisolidone), were induced by YE, and labeling studies indicated that the first two were derived from formononetin. Our results highlight the metabolic flexibility within the isoflavonoid pathway, suggest new pathways for complex isoflavonoid metabolism, and indicate differential mechanisms for medicarpin biosynthesis depending on the nature of elicitation.  相似文献

Achyranthes bidentata contains a rich source of important pharmaceutically active triterpene acids including oleanolic acid (OA) as a major one. 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) is a key enzyme to provide mevalonate for biosynthesis of triterpene acids. In this study, in order to develop a sustainable source of OA, cell suspension cultures were established from shoot cultures of A. bidentata, and a full length cDNA encoding HMGR (designated as AbHMGR) was cloned and characterized. The cDNA contained 2078 nucleotides with a complete open reading frame of 1593 nucleotides, which was predicted to encode a peptide of 530 amino acids. Expression analysis by real-time PCR revealed that AbHMGR mRNA was abundant in A. bidentata roots, stems and leaves. When cultivated in Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 1.5 mg/L 1-naphthlcetic acid (NAA) and 1.5 mg/L 6-benzyladenine (6-BA), cells in suspension culture grew rapidly, yielding OA (100.9 mg/L) after 15 days. OA content in cell cultures was increased under the elicitation of methyl jasmonate (MeJA), yeast elicitor (YE) or cadmium chloride (CdCl2). The ultrahigh production of OA was achieved to 371.8 mg/L, a 5.4-fold of the control after 2-day treatment of 0.2 mM MeJA in the cell cultures. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that AbHMGR was expressed at a higher level under the elicitation of MeJA or YE. Our results suggested that OA production may be the result of the up-regulated expression of AbHMGR under the treatment of various elicitors.  相似文献

The lipopolysaccharides (LPSXcc) of the phytopathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (X.c.c.) were purified from an exopolysaccharide-deficient mutant strain. The isolated LPSxcc induced an oxidative burst reaction in cell-suspension cultures of the non-host plant tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) SRI. The oxidative burst elicited by LPSXcc differed from that induced by yeast elicitor (YE), a cell wall preparation of baker's yeast. The LPSXcc-induced oxidative burst was characterised by a slow increase in H2O2 production and an extended decline. Both the LPSXcc-and YE-induced oxidative bursts were completely blocked by the NAD(P)H-oxidase inhibitor diphenylene-iodonium. When LPSXcc and YE were applied in combination, a synergistic effect and the establishment of refractory states in the generation of H2O2 were observed. The amount of cytosolic calcium was measured in transgenic tobacco cell cultures carrying the apoaequorin gene by coelenterazine-derived chemiluminescence. Whereas YE induced a calcium peak within 1 min after application, LPSXcc induced a long-term calcium signal without transients. To our knowledge this is the first report on the elicitation of an oxidative burst in plant cell cultures by isolated LPS of a phytopathogenic bacterium.  相似文献

In different plant species, secondary metabolite biosynthesis is regulated by the phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA), which is derived by the action of lipoxygenase. In this study, we examined mono- and sesquiterpenoid accumulation and the related signal transduction pathways and biosynthetic genes in adventitious root cultures of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer as induced by yeast extract (YE, 3 g/L), a biotic elicitor, and salicylic acid (SA, 200 μM), a signaling elicitor. The lipoxygenase (LOX) gene was highly expressed in 24 and 12 h after treatment with SA and YE. JA content was significantly increased in 24 h after SA treatment. The H2O2 content was the highest in 24 and 72 h after the onset of SA and YE treatment, respectively. RNA blot analysis showed that farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPS) and isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase (IPPI) genes encoding enzymes of the biosynthesis of mono- and sesquiterpenoids were up-regulated by both elicitors. Farensol, isochiapin B sesquiterpenoids, champhor, and cineole monoterpenoids were highly accumulated after 24 h of SA treatment, while YE treatment induced bacchotricuneatin C, guaiazulene, isochiapin B, and p-benzoquinone sesquiterpenoid production. These results suggest that mono- and sesquiterpenoid accumulation induced by SA and YE occurs due to the IPPI and FPS expression and may be mediated by reactive oxygen species signaling and jasmonic acid signal transduction.  相似文献

The effects of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) and yeast glucan elicitor (YE) on the production of 6-methoxymellein (6-MM) and generation of H2O2 in suspension-cultured carrot cells were examined. Administration of BSO and YE together affected the cells synergistically to lead to an enhanced production of 6-MM. These data indicate the significance of formation and decay of active oxygen species as a second signal of elicitation in triggering the biosynthesis of the phytoalexin.Abbreviations BSO buthionine sulfoximine - MDA malondialdehyde - 6-MM 6-methoxymellein - YE yeast glucan elicitor  相似文献

Elicitation of cell cultures of Silybum marianum with methyl jasmonate (MeJA) increases the production and release of the secondary metabolite silymarin into the culture medium and this process seems to be dependent on phospholipase D activity and its product phosphatidic acid (PA). However, MeJA did not alter total membrane lipid content or overall fatty acid composition. A progressive increase in some galactolipids was observed with elicitation time. Phospholipids were mainly represented by phosphatidylcholine (PC) followed by phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylinositol (PI). MeJA caused losses of PC species that contain two unsaturated acyl species, 36:5 and 36:6 and an increase in 36:2 species. A drop in the ratio of compounds with 18:3 in PI and PE was also observed. The presence of the lysophospholipids (LP) LPC (16:0, 18:3, 18:2, 18:1) and LPE (16:0, 18:3, 18:2, 18:1) and the high contents of PA, represented by the molecular species 34:3, 34:2 and 36:5 and 36:4, indicates high basal level of phospholipase activity in cultures and a high phospholipid turnover. MeJA treatment did not quantitatively alter these lipid classes.  相似文献

The biosynthesis of silymarin, a potent antihepatotoxic compound, from the dried fruits of Silybum marianum L. Gaertn in hairy root cultures can be stimulated by a yeast extract elicitor. These results correlated with culture time, and the biosynthesis reached a maximum of 0.47 mg g?1 DW by 72 h after culture (2-fold higher than the control). Lipoxygenase activity and linoleic acid content were stimulated by this treatment, suggesting that the jasmonate pathway may mediate the elicitor-induced accumulation of silymarin. The H2O2 content increased 24 h after elicitation and did not have marked changes between 48 and 72 h. In addition, the tocopherol content (especially α- and δ-tocopherols) increased 72 h after elicitation in comparison with non-treated cultures. Ascorbate had trace changes during feeding time and was lower than the control. The antioxidant activity was assayed by the 1-1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl stable free radical method and results were calculated base on an IC50 that increased upon treatment, especially 24 h after treatment, with changes related to H2O2 content. These observations suggested that reactive oxygen species may mediate elicitor signals to the jasmonate pathway that lead to the production of silymarin.  相似文献

In Salvia miltiorrhiza hairy root cultures, the desired secondary metabolites diterpenoid tanshinones are normally produced at low yields and stored within the roots. To enhance tanshinone production and the secondary product recovery, we employed three means, elicitation with a yeast elicitor (YE), in situ adsorption of tanshinones with a hydrophobic polymeric resin (X-5) and semi-continuous mode of operation. YE treatment stimulated the tanshinone biosynthesis, increasing the total tanshinone (TT) content of root by about two-fold, from 0.46 to 1.37 mg/g dry weight (dw) (TT content=total content of three major tanshinones, cryptotanshinone, tanshinone I and tanshinone IIA). The addition of X-5 resins to the culture only increased the tanshinone yield slightly, but recovered more than 80% of tanshinones from the roots. With the application of a semi-continuous culture process involving repeated medium renewal, elicitor addition and resin replacement, starting at the late exponential growth phase, the root biomass was increased to 30.5g dw/l (versus 8-10g dw/l in batch mode) and the volumetric tanshinone yield to 87.5mg/l (about 15-fold increase), with 76.5% adsorbed to the resin. The volumetric productivity of total tanshinone reached 1.46 mg/lday, more than 7.4 times that of the batch culture. The results demonstrate that the integration of multiple elicitation, in situ adsorption and semi-continuous operation can synergistically enhance tanshinone production in S. miltiorrhiza hairy root cultures.  相似文献

The ability of methyl jasmonate (MeJa) to induce sesquiterpene production in root cultures of Hyoscyamus muticus has been studied. Although MeJa alone could not induce sesquiterpene in unwounded culture, MeJa added in the presence of wounding displayed a dose-dependent response, saturating at 50 μM. The ability to respond to MeJa declined with an increase in time between MeJa contact and wounding; however, responsiveness could be recovered by re-wounding of tissue prior to MeJa contact, suggesting that additional signaling related to wounding is required for sesquiterpene pathway induction. The saturation level of sesquiterpene induction with fungal elicitor was four times higher than the saturation level achieved by MeJa, with clear differences in sesquiterpene composition. Fungal elicitation results in a higher level of lubimin and a lower level of solavetivone production; whereas, methyl jasmonate induces predominantly solavetivone and little or no lubimin production. This suggests that fungal elicitation induces enzymes further down the sesquiterpene pathway which are not affected by MeJa. The induction of roots in contact with subsaturated levels of elicitor can be enhanced to saturation production levels by the addition of small amounts of MeJa (5–10 μmoles/l). In these studies, MeJa was consistently found to favor the earlier metabolite (solavetivone), while fungal elicitation promoted conversion to subsequent metabolites in the pathway (lubimin). The interactive role of MeJa in signal transduction for secondary metabolic production is discussed. Received: 8 June 1997 / Revision received: 13 August 1997 / Accepted: 13 September 1997  相似文献

Early, signal transduction-related responses in cultured tobacco cells due to methyl jasmonate (MeJa), a cell-wall-derived elicitor from Phytophthora nicotianae and chitosan, were investigated. MeJa was an effective inducer of lipid peroxidation and lipoxygenase (LOX) activity with maximum levels reached within 2 h and 4–8 h, respectively. Chitosan and the elicitor induced a transient increase (1–4 h) in lipid peroxidation. Conditioning with MeJA, followed by secondary elicitation, led to a significant increase in malondialdehyde concentration after 1 h. Chitosan and the elicitor induced transient activation of LOX with maximal values between 8 and 12 h, with preconditioning resulting in a rapid increase in LOX activity at 4 h post elicitation. MeJA did not effect phosphoprotein accumulation but conditioning led to the potentiation and differential induction of phosphoproteins due to chitosan and elicitor. The results indicate that cells are sensitized by the exposure to MeJa to respond more intensely and rapidly toward secondary elicitation by fungal pathogen derived elicitors.  相似文献

Lignans and neolignans are important biologically active ingredients (BAIs) biosynthesized by Linum usitatissimum. These BAIs have multi-dimensional effects against cancer, diabetes and cardio vascular diseases. In this study, yeast extract (YE) was employed as an elicitor to evaluate its effects on dynamics of biomass, BAIs and antioxidant activities in L. usitatissimum cell cultures. During preliminary experiments, flax cultures were grown on different concentrations of YE (0–1000 mg/L), and 200 mg/L YE was found to be optimum to enhance several biochemical parameters in these cell cultures. A two-fold increase in fresh (FW) and dry weight (DW) over the control was observed in cultures grown on MS medium supplemented with 200 mg/L YE. Similarly, total phenolic (TPC; 16 mg/g DW) and flavonoids content (TFC; 5.1 mg/g DW) were also positively affected by YE (200 mg/L). Stimulatory effects of YE on biosynthesis of lignans and neolignans was also noted. Thus, 200 mg/L of YE enhanced biosynthesis of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG; 3.36-fold or 10.1 mg/g DW), lariciresinol diglucoside (LDG; 1.3-fold or 11.0 mg/g DW) and dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol glucoside (DCG; 4.26-fold or 21.3 mg/g DW) in L. usitatissimum cell cultures with respect to controls. This elicitation strategy could be scaled up for production of commercially feasible levels of these precious metabolites by cell cultures of Linum.  相似文献

Induction of resistance mechanisms in barley by yeast-derived elicitors   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Yeast cell-wall extracts (YE) had high phytoalexin elicitor activity on soybeans and induced resistance against barley powdery mildew in the normally highly susceptible cv. Golden Promise. Following treatment with YE there was rapid stimulation of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity and faster formation of papillae in response to attempted fungal penetration. The spray adjuvants Agral and LI-700 each had poor phytoalexin elicitor activity and caused a slight enhancement of papilla formation and a low level of mildew control. The addition of the adjuvant to YE did not affect phytoalexin elicitation on soybeans but significantly enhanced the speed and the extent of PAL activity, papilla formation and mildew control. It is proposed that this is due to greater coverage and improved persistence enabling increased uptake of YE into the barley leaves.  相似文献

The effect of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and salicylic acid (SA) on the anthocyanin accumulation, endogenous titres of polyamines and ethylene production in callus cultures of Daucus carota were studied. The interaction of these signaling molecules with elicitors from Aspergillus niger was investigated and the involvement of MeJA was elucidated through the use of the jasmonic acid (JA) biosynthetic inhibitor ibuprofen. MeJA and SA were both found to stimulate the anthocyanin production in the callus cultures. The highest levels of anthocyanin was observed in the cultures treated with 200 μM SA 0.36 % and 0.01 μM MeJA 0.37 %. The MeJA and SA treatments were also found to result in higher activity of Ca2+ ATPase suggesting that the enhancement of anthocyanin by SA and MeJA could be mediated through the involvement of the calcium channel. The treatment of the callus cultures with SA was found to result in marginally higher titres of endogenous polyamines (PAs) whereas MeJA resulted in lower levels of PAs as compared to the control. The SA treatment was found to result in lower ethylene production and the treatment with MeJA stimulated the ethylene production. These results suggest that the stimulation of anthocyanin production by MeJA and SA in callus cultures of D. carota is not related to the ethylene production.  相似文献
