Tzvel.) callus was purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation to investigate the influence of sound stimulation on the lipid physical states and metabolism of plasma membrane. The results showed that sound stimulation decreased the content of phosphodiesters and the fluorescent intensity of DPH, but increased the light scattering value of the membrane, the fluorescent intensity of MC540 and the content of phosphomonoesters, indicating that the vesicles got looser, the charge density and hydrophobicity of membrane surface decreased under sound stimulation of some strength and frequency. However, the membrane fluidity increased under the condition. Meanwhile, the anabolism of membrane lipid increased and the catabolism decreased. It can be seen that the physical state and metabolism of membrane lipid is sensitive to sound stimulation.展开更多

Endogenous IAA, DHZ+DHZR, iPA increased significantly during the floral bud formation, while Z+ZR remained changed. The levels of cytokinins, DHZ+DHZR, iPA, and Z+ZR all increased significantly during the vegetative bud formation, however IAA level was reduced during the first 7 days of culture and increased to two thirds of initial values on the day when the bud primordia were formed. The results suggested that the initiation of floral buds was associated with a high IAA/CTK ratio, whereas the induction of vegetative bud differentiation was related to a low IAA/CTK ratio.展开更多

The results ...Leaves and stems of 9 chrysanthemum species were taken as explants and inoculated to 6 differential media and root media to research effects of hor- mone combination and explants on chrysanthemum species. The results indicated that stem of 9 chrysanthemum species and leaf of 6 chrysanthemum species all showed higher regeneration capacity, with regeneration rate in 84%-100% and re- generation coefficient at 2.3-9.4. However, none adventitious buds were found differ- entiated from leaves of "28" and "5-17", and leaf regeneration capacity of "11" was lower, either. Most chrysanthemum species proved higher in stem regeneration ca- pacity, instead of leaf. Therefore, chrysanthemum species can be applied for rapid reproduction and genetic engineering.展开更多

METHODS: Viable rat hepatocytes and human endothelial ECV304 cells were examined by trypan blue exclusion and MTT assay, respectively, as normal controls. The proliferation of MHCC97H cells was determined by MTT assay. The cellular morphology of MHCC97H cells was observed by phase contrast microscopy. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze cell apoptosis with annexin V/propidium iodide (PI), mitochondrial membrane potential with rhodamine 123 and cell cycle with PI in MHCC97H cells. Apoptotic proteins such as cytochrome C, caspase-9, caspase-3 and cell cycle proteins, including P21 and CDK4, were measured by Western blotting. RESULTS: CIE inhibited proliferation of MHCC97H cells in a timeand dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity in rat hepatocytes and human endothelial ceils. CIE induced apoptosis of MHCC97H cells in a concentration-dependent manner, as determined by flow cytometry. The apoptosis was accompanied by a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome C and activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3. CIE arrested the cell cycle in the S phase by increasing P21 and decreasing CDK4 protein expression. CONCLUSION: CIE exerted a significant apoptotic effect through a mitochondrial pathway and arrested the cell cycle by regulation of cell cycle-related proteins in MHCC97H cells without an effect on normal cells. The cancer-specific selectivity shown in this study suggests that the plant extract could be a promising novel treatment for human cancer.展开更多

文摘Plasma membrane vesicles of chrysanthemum ( Dendranthema morifolium (Ramat.) Tzvel.) callus was purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation to investigate the influence of sound stimulation on the lipid physical states and metabolism of plasma membrane. The results showed that sound stimulation decreased the content of phosphodiesters and the fluorescent intensity of DPH, but increased the light scattering value of the membrane, the fluorescent intensity of MC540 and the content of phosphomonoesters, indicating that the vesicles got looser, the charge density and hydrophobicity of membrane surface decreased under sound stimulation of some strength and frequency. However, the membrane fluidity increased under the condition. Meanwhile, the anabolism of membrane lipid increased and the catabolism decreased. It can be seen that the physical state and metabolism of membrane lipid is sensitive to sound stimulation.

Vis.,morphological characters,fertility of pollen grain and germination percentage of seeds. [Method] Pollen grains were prepared by sulphuric acid-acetyl oxide decomposition method. The lengths of polar axis and equatorial axis of pollen grains were determined with general optical microscope. The morphology of pollen grains was observed with SEM (scanning electron microscope) and the typical visual fields of 2 500× (or 2 000×),7 000× were taken pictures. [Result] Comparing with the diploid control line,the pollen grains of five tetraploid lines which were tested were different from the diploid line in morphology,sculpture,etc.. 4 of the 5 tested samples were significant larger than the diploid line in size and one was similar to the diploid line. [Conclusion] This research provided references for breeding tetraploid improved varieties of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium (Trev.) Vis. with good fertility and high germination percentage.

文摘AIM: To investigate the effects of Chrysanthemum indicum extract (CIE) on inhibition of proliferation and on apoptosis, and the underlying mechanisms, in a human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) MHCC97H cell line. METHODS: Viable rat hepatocytes and human endothelial ECV304 cells were examined by trypan blue exclusion and MTT assay, respectively, as normal controls. The proliferation of MHCC97H cells was determined by MTT assay. The cellular morphology of MHCC97H cells was observed by phase contrast microscopy. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze cell apoptosis with annexin V/propidium iodide (PI), mitochondrial membrane potential with rhodamine 123 and cell cycle with PI in MHCC97H cells. Apoptotic proteins such as cytochrome C, caspase-9, caspase-3 and cell cycle proteins, including P21 and CDK4, were measured by Western blotting. RESULTS: CIE inhibited proliferation of MHCC97H cells in a timeand dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity in rat hepatocytes and human endothelial ceils. CIE induced apoptosis of MHCC97H cells in a concentration-dependent manner, as determined by flow cytometry. The apoptosis was accompanied by a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome C and activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3. CIE arrested the cell cycle in the S phase by increasing P21 and decreasing CDK4 protein expression. CONCLUSION: CIE exerted a significant apoptotic effect through a mitochondrial pathway and arrested the cell cycle by regulation of cell cycle-related proteins in MHCC97H cells without an effect on normal cells. The cancer-specific selectivity shown in this study suggests that the plant extract could be a promising novel treatment for human cancer.

文摘Objective To observe the effects of total flavonoids of chrysanthemum and medicated serum on the expression of related proteins in the lacrimal tissue and dry-eye cell models of male rabbits with dry eye caused by castration.Methods(1)150 male Japanese rabbits were randomly divided into five groups,with 30 rabbits in each group:normal control group(group A),sham group(group B),model group(group C),androgen control group(group D)and total flavonoids of chrysanthemum treatment group(group E).The androgen deficiency dry-eye model was established by bilateral castration in groups C,D and E.Normal saline was administered to groups A,B and C by gavage;androgen(testosterone propionate)was injected into muscle in group D;and group E was given total flavonoids of chrysanthemum by gavage.All white rabbits were tested the Schirmer I test(SIT)and tear break-up time(BUT).After euthanasia,tear gland tissue was harvested so that we could observe pathological changes in the expression of related inflammatory factors in the lacrimal gland tissue.The expression of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)was detected in the lacrimal gland tissue by immunohistochemistry.Reverse transcription PCR was used to quantitatively detect expression of TGF-β1 mRNA.(2)Male Wistar rat lacrimal epithelial cells were used to establish a model of eye stem cell apoptosis caused by androgen levels.The blank control group was set up without androgen culture,the control group with androgen culture,and the total flavonoids of chrysanthemum group without androgen.The MTT method was used to determine the optimal intervention dosage of drug-containing plasma.Western blot and QPCR were used to detect the expression of AR mRNA,NF-κB phosphorylated protein and TGF-β1 in lacrimal epithelial cells,and the androgen-like effect of total flavonoids of chrysanthemum was observed.Results(1)Immunohistochemistry showed that groups A,B,D and E had significantly lower expression of IL-1βand TNF-αthan group C(P<0.05);among these,group E had slightly higher expression than group D(P>0.05).RT-PCR results showed that the relative expression of TGF-β1 mRNA in groups A,B,D and E was significantly higher than in group C(P<0.05),and the relative expression of TGF-β1 mRNA in groups D and E was higher than that in groups A and B(P<0.05).(2)Using the MTT method,the final concentration of interfering cells was calculated to be 13.2%.The expression of AR protein,NF-κB and TGF-β1 in the chrysanthemum flavonoid plasma intervention and testosterone propionate intervention groups was enhanced,and there were significant differences relative to the blank group(P<0.01).The expression level of NF-κB in the total flavonoid containing plasma intervention group was lower than that in the testosterone propionate intervention group(P<0.01).Conclusions The total flavonoids of chrysanthemum can inhibit IL-1βand TNF-αexpression in the lacrimal gland tissue of castrated male rabbits with dry eye to increase synthesis of TGF-β1 mRNA and TGF-β1,thereby inhibiting the inflammatory response.The medicated plasma with total flavonoids of chrysanthemum promotes expression of AR mRNA,upregulating expression of NF-κB,further promoting upregulation of TGF-β1 protein expression in lacrimal epithelial cells,inhibiting inflammation by regulating related proteins,and ultimately alleviating the symptoms of dry eye.
