As cultured plant cells can grow in high oxidative stress conditions, they form an excellent system to study antioxidant mechanisms and the mass production of antioxidants. Oxidative stress is a major cause of damage in plants exposed to various types of environmental stress, including heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd). Heavy metal accumulation can interfere with many cell functions and plant growth. To evaluate the contribution of oxidative stress to Cd-induced toxicity, cultured sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) cells were treated with increasing concentrations of Cd (0, 10, 25, and 50 μM) and cultured further. Cell growth was significantly inhibited by 25 and 50 μM of Cd, and the total protein content increased with 50 μM of Cd. Additionally, the activity of peroxidase (POD) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), antioxidant enzymes that remove hydrogen peroxide (a reactive oxygen species), increased in the cells after treatment with 50 μM of Cd. The expression analysis of POD, APX, and peroxiredoxin (PRX) isolated from sweetpotato cultured cells in a previous study revealed the differential expression of POD in response to Cd. In this study, the expression levels of several acidic POD (swpa2, swpa3, and swpa4) and basal POD (swpb1, swpb2, and swpb3) genes were increased in Cd-treated cultured cells. These results indicate that Cd-mediated oxidative stress is closely linked to improved POD-mediated antioxidant defense capacity in sweetpotato suspension-cultured cells.

포도 및 미국자리공의 세포현탁배양계에서 세포생장 및 색소축적에 미치는 배지내 무기 염농도의 효과를 알아 보았다. 포도의 세포 증식은 control구에서만 정상적인 대수증식기를 보였고, 희석배지에서는 4일째에서 6일째까지 완만한 대수증식기를 나타냈다. Anthocyanin은 모든 처리구에서 배양후 12일째에 최대로 축적이 되었다. 미국자리공에 있어서는 모든 처리구에서 세포증식과 동조적으로 betacyanin이 축적되어, 배양 8일 이후에 최대축척을 나타냈다. 포도의 세포배양에서는 sucrose 87.6mM까지는 세포증식이 증가하였으나 그 이상의 농도에서는 증식이 급격히 떨어졌다. Anthocyanin은 146mM에서 최대로 축적되었으며 그 이상의 농도에서도 다량의 anthocyanin이 축적되었다. 미국자리공에서는 sucrose농도가 높아질수록 세포증식 및 색소축적이 증가하는 경향을 보여, 포도의 배양세포와 대조적 인 결과를 보였다. 이상의 결과로써 포도의 anthocyanin과 미국자리공의 betacyanin이 같은 적색색소이지만, 배양세포내에서의 생성기작 및 그 축적과정이 서로 상이하다는 것을 보여주었다.

To produce economically important indole alkaloids by cell cultures, we selected protoplastsderived clones (protoclones) of vinca (Catharanthus roseus) for high yields of catharanthine and ajmalicine. Protoplasts were enzymatically isolated from suspension-cultured cells. The highest plating efficiency (1%) was obtained when protoplasts were plated at a density of 1$\times$105 protoplasts/ml in a culture medium solidified with 0.4% Seaplaque agarose. The growth rates of 40 protoclones subcultured on a solid medium varied over a wide range. Protoclone VPC-6, which had the highest growth rate, was observed to produce relatively high yields of catharanthine and ajmalicine when cultured in a liquid medium. Although the original cell line did not produce catharanthine at a detectable level by HPLC, protoclone VPC-10 produced it at a level of 5.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/g fresh weight of cells for 10 days of culture. Under the same conditions, protoclone VPC-15 produced ajmalicine at a level of 133.6$\mu\textrm{g}$/g, of which productivity was improved about ,3 times than that of the original cell line. The results indicate that differences in the growth rate and indole alkaloid yield among the protoclones reflect the somaclonal variation in suspnsion-cultured cells.

Gardenia callus was induced in MS medium containing $10{\;}{\mu}M$ of 2,4 diphenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), $1{\;}{\mu}M$ kinetin, and 3% sucrose in the dark. $B_5$ medium was identified to be the most adequate medium for cell growth. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was better growth regulator than 2,4-D not only for cell growth but slso for carotenoid production. Ligt also played a critical role on synthesis of carotenoid. Gardenia cells grown in $B_5$ medium could utilize a polysaccharide, soluble starch, as a carbon source. The cell growth was stimulated in $B_5$ medium fortified with 0.2% yeast extract. The optimum pH for cell growth was 5.7. High density cultures can be maintained by increasing inoculum size and medium concentration accordingly. Specific growth rate and mass doubling time were 0.095 $day^{-1}$ and 7.3 days, respectively. The cell immobilized in alginate tends to formulate more enlarged vacuoles containing yellow pigment compared with those of suspended cell. Carotenoid content of immobilized cell was about $264.4{\;}{\mu}g/g$ fresh weight (F.W.) corresponding twice of the content of suspended cell ($112.08{\;}{\mu}g/g$ F.W.). The color of gardenia cell was shifted from yellow to red when carbohydrase-secreting fungus, Trichoderma reesei, was co-cultivated with gardenia cells.

Transgenic plant cell cultures are an attractive expression system for the production of industrial and pharmaceutical proteins because of their advantages in safety and low production cost. Human cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4-immunoglobulin (hCTLA4Ig) was produced and secreted when sugar was depleted in culture medium by transgenic rice cell lines (Oryza sativa L.) using RAmy3D promoter. Due to the production of the target protein by sugar depletion, concomitant occurrence of cell death is inevitable. For that reason, inhibition of cell death for enhancing productivity was necessary for the production period without energy sources. Supplementation of 0.1 mM sodium nitroprusside improved cell viability by 1.4-fold and maximum hCTLA4Ig production by 1.3-fold compared to those of control. Addition of 1 and 10 mM glutathione, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and nicotinamide inhibited apoptotic-like programmed cell death by decreasing the activity of reactive oxygen species. Production hCTLA4Ig was enhanced 1.4-, 1.25-, and 1.15-fold with 10 mM NAC, 1 mM NAC, and 1 mM glutathione, respectively. In addition, it was found that the supplementation of NAC enhanced the cell viability.

To establish in vitro mass production system of grape anthocyanin pigments through callus and cell suspension culture, the effects of nitrogen amount and the ratio of $NO_3^-$/$NH_4^+$ in the medium on cell growth and anthocyanin production were investigated. Total nitrogen amount and the ratio of $NO_3^-$/$NH_4^+$ in the medium strongly affected anthocyanin production and cell growth. When $NH_4^+$ was fixed, the cell growth was promoted by 50 mM total nitrogen (20 mM $NO_3^-$ : 30 mM $NH_4^+$ ) than other nitrogen combinations, and was strongly inhibited when $NO_3^-$ was lacking (0 mM $NO_3^-$ : 60 mM $NH_4^+$ ) while anthocyanin production was increased. When $NO_3^-$ was fixed, the cell growth was promoted by 70 mM total nitrogen (40 mM $NO_3^-$ : 30 mM $NH_4^+$) than other nitrogen combinations, and was strongly inhibited when $NO_3^-$ was lacking (0 mM $NO_3^-$ : 60 mM $NH_4^+$ ) while anthocyanin production was increased. Cell growth was gradually increased by all nitrogen combinations, but anthocyanin production reached its peak on day 4 in culture. Anthocyanin content increased with decreasing cell density. Sucrose was rapidly hydrolyzed to fructose and glucose within 4 days. Glucose and fructose concentrations in the medium increased and peaked at the 4th day. The anthocyanin content of $NH_4^+$-free 2% sucrose media was 2 times (200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g) higher than that of 1% sucrose. When $NO_3^-$ was lacking, the highest anthocyanin production was observed at 4% sucrose after 12 days of culture, and increased along with the sucrose concentration.

Twenty crossbred calves of $88{\pm}5.5kg$ initial live weight and 3-4 month of age were divided into two groups and fed wheat straw and concentrate to support a 500 g daily gain in body weight. Calves in the experimental group (YC) were given a daily dose of 10 ml yeast cell suspension (YC) containing live cells $(5{\times}10^9 cells/ml)$ of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ITCCF 2094. After a growth study of 122 days metabolism trials were conducted. The calves in the YC group recorded a daily weigt gain of $492{\pm}27.8g$ as compared to $476{\pm}20.1g$ in control group. There were no significant differences in feed intake, nutrient digestibility, feed/gain ratio and nitrogen retention between the YC supplemented and control groups.

Biotransformation of exogenous (-)-(4R)-isopiperitenone in cell suspension cultures of Mentha piperita resulted in oxidized products, with (-)-7-hydroxyisopiperitenone being the major compound. The mass of products obtained $unde^{18}O_2$, atmosphere was two units higher than that under normal atmosphere. The biotransformation was inhibited by several cytochrome P450-specific inhibitors as well as by carbon monoxide. Carbon monooxide inhibition was substantially overcome by irradiation of cells with blue light including light at 450nm wavelength. These results suggested that a cytochrome P450-type monooxygenase was involved in the biotransformation.
