The objectives of this study include induction and multiplication of callus, establishment of a suspension cell line, and isolation of protoplasts from cell suspensions. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium was used for callus induction from mature seeds of N. sibirica. Seed-derived calluses were further multiplied on MS medium augmented with 0.5 mg L-1 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BA) and 1.0 mg L-1 2,4-dichlorophenoxy (2,4-D) acetic acid. Suspension cultures of N. sibirica were initiated by transferring friable calli to the same liquid multiplication medium. Characterization of the suspension culture was assessed based on fresh mass, dry mass, cell viability and pH value of the culture. A typical growth curve was observed after inoculating 1.5 g of callus in 40 mL liquid medium, including a lag phase, an exponential growth phase, a stationary phase, and a negative acceleration phase. The effect of factors such as pre-plasmolysis, enzyme combination, enzymolysis time and mannitol concentration, on the isolation of cell-derived protoplasts were evaluated to determine the usefulness of suspension cultures. The maximum yield (9.79 x 10(6) cells/g) and highest viability (79.97%) of protoplast were reached when approximately 1 g of cell suspension (cultured for 6 days) was inoculated for 12 h in cell and protoplast washing solution made of 0.8 mol L-1 mannitol mixture solution, cellulose onozuka R-10 2% (w/v), hemicellulose 0.2%, macerozyme R-10 1%, and pectolyase Y-23 0.5%. Protoplast yield was significantly influenced by pre-plasmolysis and cellulose onozuka R-10 (P < 0.05).展开更多

This study determined the effects of the total alkaloids of the leaves of Nitraria sibirica(NSTA) on blood pressure and albuminuria in mice treated with angiotensin II and a high-salt diet(ANG/HS). Adult mice were divided into three groups: control; infused with angiotensin II and fed a diet containing 4% NaCl(ANG/HS; and ANG/HS plus injection of NSTA(1 mg·kg-1·d-1, i.p.). After treatment of these regimens, daily water and food intake, kidney weight, blood pressure, urinary albumin excretion, renal concentrations of inflammatory markers, including soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1), and the expression of renal fibrosis markers were determined. Compared to the control group, the ANG/HS group had higher blood pressure and urinary albumin excretion. Treatment with NSTA in ANG/HS mice for three weeks significantly reduced blood pressure and urinary albumin excretion. ANG/HS treatment caused elevated levels of sICAM-1 and MCP-1, as well as increased fibrosis markers. Concurrent treatment with ANG/HS and NSTA attenuated the levels and expression of renal inflammatory and fibrosis markers. Treatment with NSTA effectively reduces hypertension-induced albuminuria through the reduction of renal inflammatory and fibrosis markers.展开更多

The experiments of main cultural technology were done on Nitraria sibirica in 4 types of site preparation, 3 types of planting, 3 designs for planting density. The Nitraria sibirica experiments for the effects of curbing salt and improving soil were done by testing soil nutrients, salt content, soil physical properties as focal points in typical site of 3-4 years woods. The experiment results showed that the Nitraria sibirica could survive well with soil salt content of 0.6%, and that survival rate declined distinctively as soil salt content exceeded 0.8%. However, high soil salt content did not influence growth in the year of planting. There were obvious differences in salt-tolerance among Nitraria sibirica provenances; Dayilu was the best on salt-tolerance, the other 4 provenances had no differences, and obviously inferior to Dayilu. The different types of site preparation clearly influenced planting survival rate, conserving rate and growth. The method of two-ploughing-two-harrowing was the best among all 4 types of site preparation. Seed forestation was largely limited, bared-rooted seedling forestation may be popularised when soil salt content was less than 1% and soil moisture content was better in spring. Forestation with container seedling was suited to coastal saline soil in rainy season. The optimum planting density of Nitraria sibirica was 2 505/ha in the Yellow River Delta area in view of coverage rate, yield of fruits and cost of planting. Generally speaking,Nitraria sibirica could effectively refrain soil from accumulation of salt in the surface soil, decrease salt content and increase soil nutrient, and heighten soil capillary pore rate.展开更多
