Common usage of the concept of juvenility implies that there is one physiological phase, the juvenile phase, which manifests itself in the various morphological and physiological phenomena observed in juvenile higher plants. The juvenile phase is often defined as that time from seed germination until the plant attains the ability to flower regulating such behaviour. This definition precludes plants from flowering in the juvenile phase. It is of major interest, therefore, to identify the physiological controls(Bluehreife) regulating such behavior. The length of the juvenile period in higher plants ranges from one year to over 60 years in different species. The long juvenile period of seedling is the main cause of the long duration of the breeding process. I determined the length of the juvenile period in various plants and its control of phase changes in natural system in relation to factors such as plant size and age, shoot morphology, apex size, root system and phytohormonal and nutritional status is reviewed. From the own experimental and observational evidence available it appears that both hormonal and nutritional factors can be involved in control of juvenility but that a specific juvenile or flowering hormone is not involved. Grafting, ringing, scoring, root pruning and fertilization have been used to accelerate flowering, but in most cases these cultured treatments are only successful on plants that were passed the juvenile phase. It is suggested that there are intrinsic difference between the meristematic cells of the apieces of juvenile and adult shoot, which are thus determined with respect to there development potentialities. The problems associated with the maintenance of the determined state through mitosis are discussed. The properties of transitional forms of Ribes nigrum L. intermediate between the juvenile and adult phase, are descrived and there implications discussed. Analogies are drawn between juvenile phenomena in woody perennials and in herbaceous species.

본 실험은 nptII 및 hpt 유전자가 삽입된 현사시나무를 이용하여 각 항생제 저항성 유전자로 형질전환된 세포의 효율적인 선발 조건을 규명하기 위하여 수행되었다. 액아가 포함된 줄기절편과 잎절편 조직의 생장, 발근 유도, 캘러스 유도로 항생제에 대한 감수성에 대한 효과를 검정하였다. 형질전환되지 않은 대조식물체의 잎절편을 이용한 경우 50 mg/L의 kanamycin이나 2 mg/L hygromycin으로 캘러스 유도 및 생장을 억제할 수 있었으나 형질전환된 식물은 100 mg/L kanamycin, 50 mg/L hygromycin에서도 왕성한 생장을 나타냈다. 절간조직의 개아의 경우 100 mg/L kanamycin, 5 mg/L hygromycin으로 줄기신장을 완전히 억제 가능하였으며, 뿌리유도는 50 mg/L kanamycin, 5 mg/L hygromycin에서 선발이 가능하였다. 형질전환체는 모두 이보다 높은 농도에서 왕성한 생장을 보였다. 형질전환이 되지 않은 세포의 생장을 억제하는 데는 hygromycin이 kanamycin보다 더 효율이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 hpt유전자가 npt II 유전자보다 훨씬 강력한 선발표지임이 확인되었으며 엽절편의 캘러스 유도와 생장과 절간조직의 발근유도 모두 항생제에 예민하게 작용하여 형질전환체의 식별에 효과적으로 사용할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the effect for allergic-inflammation of Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus (FTB) on HaCaT cells and RBL2H3 cells. Methods : To investigate the effects of FTB for anti-inflammation in HaCaT cells, the cells were pretreated with FTB for 1h and then stimulated with $TNF-{\alpha}/IFN-{\beta}$ for 24h. Then thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) and Macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC) levels were analyzed with ELISA kit. Also to investigate the effect of skin barrier protein, the cells were treated with FTB of various concentrations, and then cells were harvested, expressions of skin barrier protein were measured with RT-PCR. To investigate the effects of FTB for anti-allergy in RBL2H3 cells, the cells were pre-treated with FTB for 1h, and then stimulated with A23187 for 30 min. ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase, IL-4 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ were measured using cultured media. The cells were harvested to analyze the mechanism of the effect for FTB via Western blot. Results : FTB did not show cytotoxicity in HaCaT and RBL2H3. In HaCaT cells, FTB significantly suppressed the expression of TARC, MDC at a dose-dependent manner and markedly increased formation of the skin barrier proteins. In RBL2H3 cells, FTB decreased release of the ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase, IL-4 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ in RBL2H3 through inhibition of the phosphorylation of JNK and p38, which are include in the signaling mechanism of MAPK Conclusion : These results indicate that FTB has an anti-inflammatory effect on the allergic response through blocking MAPK pathway. This suggest that FTB could be a therapeutic agent for allergic response.

Acanthopanax trifoliatus (L) Merr (AT) is commonly used as an herbal medicine and edible plant in some areas of China and other Asian countries. AT is thought to have anticancer effects, but potential mechanisms remain unknown. To assess the anticancer properties of AT, we exposed prostate cancer cells to AT extracts and assessed cell proliferation and signaling pathways. An ethanol extract of AT was suspended in water followed by sequential extraction with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. PC-3 cells were treated with different concentrations of each extract and cell viability was determined by the MTT and trypan blue exclusion assays. The ethyl acetate extract of the ethanol extract had a stronger inhibitory effect on growth and a stronger stimulatory effect on apoptosis than any of the other extracts. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that the ethyl acetate extract suppressed the transcriptional activity of NF-${\kappa}B$, increased the level of caspase-3, and decreased the levels of phospho-Erk1/2 and phospho-Akt. This is the first report on the anticancer activity of AT in cultured human prostate cancer cells. The results suggest that AT can provide a plant-based medicine for the treatment or prevention of prostate cancer.

담배 (Nicotiana tabacum cv. BY4)의 이배체 식물과 약배양으로부터 유도된 반수체 식물의 잎절편을 사용하여 0.5mg/L 2.4-D 단독처리구에서 캘러스를 유도한 후, 2.0 mg/L 2.4-D, 1.0 mg/L Kinetin 및 0.1 mg/L BAP를 조합처리하여 계대배양을 하였다. 이배체에서는 2.0 mg/L 2.4-D와 1.0 mg/L 카이네틴의 조합처리구에서, 반수체는 2.0 mg/L2.4-D 와 0.1 mg/L BAP 조합처리구에서 세포증식이 양호하였으므로, 현탁배양도 동일조건에서 실시하였다. 세포괴를 균일하게 한 현탁배양세포를 p-Fluorophenylalanine (PFP)이 5~100 $\mu$M의 농도로 단독처리한 배지상에 2.0 mL씩 평판배양하여, 10, 20, 30일 후 PFP의 처리에 대한 저항성 colony를 조사하였다. 배양 30일 후 세포주의 생중량을 측정한 결과 PFP의 농도가 높아질수록 감소하였다. 선발된 캘러스는 이배체서 peroxidase의 활성도가 5 $\mu$M PFP 처리시에 가장 높았는데 100 $\mu$M PFP 처리까지는 대조구보다는 높았다. Catalase의 활성도는 5 $\mu$M PFP 처리시 가장 높았으나 100 $\mu$M PFP 처리시 가장 낮았다. 한편 반수체에서는 peroxidase와 catalase의 활성도는 50 $\mu$M PFP 처리시 가장 높게 나타나서 이배체와 반수체 사이에 효소활성의 차이는 뚜렷했다.

중금속의 하나인 $Cr0_3$의 세포독성과 이에 대한 연꽃(Nelumbo nucifera GAERTN(NNG))의 수술에서 채취한 연꽃추출물의 방어효과를 배양 대뇌신경교세포(C6 glioma cell)를 대상으로 항산화 측면에서 조사하였다. $Cr0_3$의 세포독성을 조사하기 위하여 배양된 C6 glioma 세포를 $4{\sim}55{\mu}M$ 농도의 $Cr0_3$로 48시간동안 처리하였다. XTT 분석법에 의하여 세포생존율을 조사하였다. 그 결과 $Cr0_3$는 처리 농도에 비례하여 C6 glioma세포의 생존율을 유의하게 감소시켰으며 $Cr0_3$의 $55{\mu}M$ 농도 처리에서는 $XTT_{50}$ 값이, $10{\mu}M$에서는$XTT_{90}$ 값이 나타났다. 따라서 세포독성판정기준에 의하여 $Cr0_3$는 C6 glioma세포에 고독성인 것으로 나타났다. 한편, $Cr0_3$의 세포독성에 대한 연꽃추출물의 방어효과를 항산화 측면에서 조사하기 위하여 먼저 연꽃추출물의 항산화활성을 SOD-유사활성에 의하여 조사하였다. 그 결과 $130{\sim}150{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$의 연꽃추출물 농도에서 SOD-유사활성이 대조군에 비하여 모두 증가하였으며 특히 $150{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$의 NNG추출물의 처리에서는 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 이는 또한 비교군으로 사용한 $15{\mu}M$, vitamin E의 SOD유사활성과 매우 유사한 활성을 나타냈다. 따라서 연꽃추출물은 SOD 유사활성을 보임으로서 항산화활성을 나타냈다. 한편, $Cr0_3$의 세포독성에 대한 연꽃추출물의 방어효과를 조사하기 위하여 $Cr0_3$의 $XTT_{50}$ 농도인 $55{\mu}M$에서 배양 C6 glioma 세포를 처리하기 전에 연꽃추출물이 $90-120{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ 농도로 각각 포함된 배양액에서 2시간 동안 배양한 후 이에 대한 세포생존율을 조사하였다. 그 결과 연꽃추출물을 처리한 실험군에서는 $Cr0_3$을 처리한 실험군에 비하여 유의한 세포생존율의 증가를 보였다. 본 실험 결과는 연꽃추출물이 $Cr0_3$의 세포독성을 효과적으로 방어하였음을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 실험 결과로부터 $Cr0_3$는 배양 C6 glioma세포에 고독성을 나타냈으며 항산화활성을 가지고 있는 연꽃추출물은 $Cr0_3$에 의한 세포독성을 효과적으로 방어함으로서 $Cr0_3$의 독성이 산화적 손상과 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다.

We report an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation procedure optimized for 'Kyoho' that is a major table grapevine cultivar in Korea, and its transgenic plants with antifreeze protein gene of carrot (DcAFP). The full length of DcAFP coding region in accordance with the previous report was isolated from young leaves of carrot and recombined into a plant transformation vector. Ethylene inhibitors such as silver nitrate and aminoethoxyvinylglycin (AVG) supplemented in a co-cultivation medium distinctly increased frequency of shoot regeneration when explants were sub-cultured in a selection medium: particularly ten-fold higher in treatment with 0.1 mg/L AVG than one without ethylene inhibitor. Among various antibiotics and their concentrations, the combination of 150 mg/L cefotaxime plus 150 mg/L $Clavamox^{TM}$ was selected for elimination of Agrobacterium cells in addition to minimization of adverse effect on shoot regeneration, while 50 mg/L kanamycin monosulfate effectively suppressed regeneration of non-transgenic shoots. Applying the elucidated culture condition, we finally obtained a total of 5 transgenic 'Kyoho' plantlets with DcAFP, of which integration with the grapevine genome and transcription was confirmed by nucleic acid analyses.

Three peroxidase (POD) cDNAs were isolated from dehydration-treated fibrous roots of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) plant via the screening of a cDNA library, and their expressions were assessed to characterize functions of each POD in relation to environmental stress. Three PODs were divided into two groups, designated the basic PODs (swpb4, swpb5) and the anionic PODs (swpa7), on the basis of the pI values of mature proteins. Fluorescence microscope analysis indicated that three PODs are secreted into the extracellular space. RT-PCR analysis revealed that POD genes have diverse expression patterns in a variety of plant tissues. Swpb4 was abundantly expressed in stem tissues, whereas the expression levels of swpb5 and swpa7 transcripts were high in fibrous and thick pigmented roots. Swpb4 and swpa7 showed abundant expression levels in suspension cultured cells. Three POD genes responded differently in the leaf and fibrous roots in response to a variety of stresses including dehydration, temperature stress, stress-associated chemicals, and pathogenic bacteria.

This study was executed to evaluate the immune activity, nitrite scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity against extracts of various concentration of ethanol solvent from Codonopsis lanceolata cultured at 6 local regions. The immune responses from both human T and B cell line was significantly enhanced in the cell growth compared to control while the cell growth was influenced at a certain period of culture. The results revealed that the cell growth of both human T and B cell was altered in a time dependent manner. The nitrite scavenging activity of ethanol extracts from various solvent concentration of C. lanceolata were affected by pH. At a pH of 1.2, the nitrite scavenging effect of all of the extracts tested observed higher than that of the other two pH ranges. There was no distinct detection of nitrite scavenging effects of the pH range 6.0. The ABTS radical scavenging activity was progressively increased in a dose-dependent manner, and the activity was the highest in 100% ethanol extract. The result from this investigation suggests that the extract of Codonopsis lanceolata could be an addition to basic medicine for immune modulation and natural food additives.
