Somatic embryogendesis is one of good examples of the basic research for plant embryo development as well as an important technique for plant biotechnology. This paper describes the direct somatic embryogenesis from zygotic embryos of Panax ginseng is reversely related to normal axis growth of zygotic embryos by the experiment of various chemical treatments. Under the normal growth condition, the apical tips of embryo axis produced an agar-diffusible substance, which suppressed somatic embryo development from cotyledons. Although the cells of zygotic embryos were released from the restraint of embryo axis, various factors were still involved for somatic embryo development. Electron microscopic observation revealed that the ultrastructure of cells of cotyledon epidermis markedly changed before initiation of embryonic cell division, probably indicating reprogramming events into the cells embryogenically determined state. Polar accumulation of endogenous auxin or cell-cell isolation by plasmolysis pre-treatment is the strong inducer for the somatic embryo development. The cells for the process of somatic embryogenesis might be determined by the physiological conditions fo explants and medium compositions. Direct somatic embryos from cotyledons fo ginseng were originated eithrer from single or multiple cells. The different cellular origin of somatic embryos was originated either from single or multiple cell. The different cellular origin of somatic embryos was depended on various developmental stages of cotyledons. Immature meristematic cotyledons produced multiple cell-derived somatic embryos, which developed into multiple embryos. While fully mature cotyledons produced single cell-derived single embryos with independent state. Plasmolysis pretreatment of cotyledons strongly enhanced single cell-derived somatic embryogenesis. Single embryos were converted into normal plantlets with shoot and roots, while multiple embryos were converted into only multiple shoots. GA3 or a chilling treatment was prerequisite for germination and plant conversion. Low concentration of ammonium ion in medium was necessary for balanced growth of root and shoot of plantlets. Therefore, using above procedures, successful plant regeneration of ginseng was accomplished through direct single embryogenesis, which makes it possible to produce genetically transformed ginseng efficently.

인삼(Panaxginseng)의 물추출물로부터 분리한 분자량 10 kDa 이상의 분획에서 강한 비장세포 분열증식 효과를 볼 수 있었다. 또한 이 분획은 LPS와 Con A에 의해서 유도된 B-cell과 T-cell의 증식효과를 66%와 49%씩 더 증가시켰다. 이 분획을 80% ammonium sulfate 침전법을 실시해서 조 단백질 분획을 얻었으며 이를 다시 DEAE Sepharose CL-6B column chromatography를 수행해서 단백질 분획들을 분리하였다. 대부분의 단백질은NaCl gradien에 의해서 용출 되었고 0~1 M NaCl gradient에 의해서 분리된 4종류의 당단백질 분획에서 비장세포 증식효과와 대식세포의 NO 생산촉진 효과가 나타났다. 특히 단백질 35.9 %,중성당 49.4%, 산성당 12.5%로 구성되어있는 F-2 분획에서는 LPS수준의 높은 면역세포 증식효과를 보였다. 그러나 F-2를 protease로 처리한 후의 비장세포 증식 효과는 대조군과 대비해서 29.1%가 낮아졌다. 이상의 결과로부터 인삼의 물추출물에서 분리된 F-2분획의 면역세포 활성효과에는 단백질 부분이 중요한 역할을 한다고 생각된다.

Acyl-binding protein (ACBP)은 긴사슬 acyl-CoA와 결합하는 고도로 보존되어 있는 세포질 단백질이다. 인삼의 유용 유전자를 대량으로 분석하기 위하여 제작된 인삼 모상근cDNA library로부터 인삼 ACBP유전자가 분리되었다. 이 유전자는 길이가 453 bp이고 264 bp의 open reading frame (10kDa)을 가지고 있었다. 인삼 ACBP의 아미노산 서열을 다른 식물체에서 보고된 것과 비교한 결과 castor bean과 89.5%로 매우 높은 유사성을 나타내었으며, lilly, Digitalis. Arabidopsis, rape 등과 각각 81.8%, 80.7%, 73%, 71.9%의 유사성을 나타내었다. 그러나 인삼의 ACBP는 Arabidopsis 와 rape의 ACBP보다 5개의 아미노산이 적은 87개의 아미노산으로 이루어져 있었고 어떠한 signal peptide로 발견되지 않았다. 그리고 현재 보고되어 있는 다른 식물체의 ACBP와 계통분석을 한 결과 인삼의 ACBP는 Arabidopsis나 cotton 보다는 castor bean과 매우 가까운 유연관계에 있는 것으로 나타났다.

인삼의 안정적인 생산 및 합리적인 병해방제에 기여하기 위하여 연구를 실시한 결과 갈잎 퇴비에서 분리된 Streptomyces lauretii B8180과 Bacillus subtilis B8856, Burkholderia cepacia B7944 세 균주의 인삼병원균 5종에 대한 항균력이 인정되었으며, 특히 실내실험을 통하여 높은 역병 방제효과가 인정되었다. 그러나 이 실험에서와 같이 식물의 지상부에 길항균을 살포하는 방법을 통하여 역병 방제효과를 높일 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 이 길항균들은 갈잎 퇴비에서 분리되었기 때문에, 갈잎 퇴비에서 증식시켜 인삼재배 예정지에 투입하면, 억제형 토양 (suppressive soil) 조성을 통한 주요병해 방제가능성도 클 것으로 생각된다.

Background: Although the aerial parts of hydroponic Panax ginseng are reported to contain higher contents of total ginsenosides than those of roots, the isolation and identification of active metabolites from the aerial parts of hydroponic P. ginseng have not been carried out so far. Methods: The aerial parts of hydroponic P. ginseng were applied on repeated silica gel and octadecylsilane columns to yield four glycosyl glycerides (Compounds 1-4), which were identified based on nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry data. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for inhibition activity on NO production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Results and conclusion: The glycosyl glycerides were identified to be (2S)-1-O-7(Z),10(Z),13(Z)-hexadecatrienoyl-3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (1), (2S)-1-O-linolenoyl-3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (2), (2S)-1-O-linolenoyl-2-O-linolenoyl-3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (3), and 2(S)-1-O-linoleoyl-2-O-linoleoyl-3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (4). Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate inhibition activity on NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells [half maximal inhibitory concentration ($IC_{50}$): $63.8{\pm}6.4{\mu}M$ and $59.4{\pm}6.8{\mu}M$, respectively] without cytotoxicity at concentrations < $100{\mu}M$, whereas Compounds 3 and 4 showed good inhibition effect ($IC_{50}$: $7.7{\pm}0.6{\mu}M$ and $8.0{\pm}0.9{\mu}M$, respectively) without cytotoxicity at concentrations < $20{\mu}M$. All isolated compounds showed reduced messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of interleukin-$1{\beta}$ (IL-$1{\beta}$), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ in LPS-induced macrophage cells with strong inhibition of mRNA activity observed for Compounds 3 and 4.

Carlaviruses were isolated from naturally infected medicinal plants, and identified by means of test plants and electron microscopy. Mottle symptoms were shown on leaves of Panax ginseng, Aralia cordata, Xanthium strumarium, Taraxacum officinale, Aconitum carmichaeli, and Bupleurum longiradiatum var. breviradiatum. Ring spot on leaves of Abutilon avicennae and ring mosaic or vein clearing on leaves of Sambucus sieboldiana were also shown. These viruses had rather narrow host ranges by mechanical inoculation. The virus particles were scattered or aggregated in cytoplasm of infected host plant leaves. The carlaviruses for which the name panax virus S (PaVS), aralia virus S (ArVS), xanthium mottle virus (XaVS), taraxacum virus S (TaVS), aconite mottle virus (AcMV), bupleurum virus S (BuVS) and abutilon ring spot virus (AbRSV) were proposed, had flexuous particles with width 13 nm and length $620{\sim}720nm$. A reported elder ring mosaic virus was isolated from leaves of Sambucus sieboldiana with ring mosaic or vein-clear symptoms.

Ginseng, the root of Panax ginseng, is one of the oldest herbal medicines. It has a variety of physiological and pharmacological effects. Recently, we isolated a subset of glycolipoproteins that we designated gintonin, and demonstrated that it induced transient change in intracellular calcium concentration $([Ca^{2+}]_i)$ in cells via G-protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway(s). The previous method for gintonin isolation included multiple steps using methanol, butanol, and other organic solvents. In the present study, we developed a much simple method for the preparation of gintonin from ginseng root using 80% ethanol extraction. The extracted fraction was designated edible gintonin. This method produced a high yield of gintonin (0.20%). The chemical characteristics of gintonin such as molecular weight and the composition of the extract product were almost identical as the gintonin prepared using the previous extraction regimen involving various organic solvents. We also examined the physiological effects of edible gintonin on endogenous $Ca^{2+}$-activated $Cl^-$ channel activity of Xenopus oocytes. The 50% effective dose was $1.03{\pm}0.3\;{\mu}g$/mL. Finally, since gintonin preparation through ethanol extraction is easily reproducible, gintonin could be commercially applied for ginseng-derived functional health food and/or drug following the confirmations of in vitro and in vivo physiological and pharmacological effects of gintonin.
