四十种瓜菜中超氧化物歧化酶含量测定

采用化学发光法测定了40种蔬菜、瓜、果中的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的含量,并在此基础上探讨了9种蔬菜中维生素E、C、蛋白对SOD的影响以及它们之间的关系.还观察了蔬菜中SOD的热稳定性.结果表明,不同蔬菜、瓜、果间SOD含量的差异很大,其范围在1.26～176.10×10~(-3)g/g蛋白之间;去除脂溶性维生素E时SOD有不同程度的下降;维生素C及蛋白与SOD无明显对应关系;加热处理后样品的SOD仍得到较好保存.     

两种化合物对菜粉蝶幼虫超氧化物歧化酶的影响

室内测试了菜粉蝶 Pieris rapae 4 龄幼虫超氧化物歧化酶的活性，并就 α -三噻吩（ α -terthienyl）和化合物5［1-苯基-4-（3，4-亚甲基 二氧）苯基-丁二炔］两种化合物对其产生的影响进行了比较研究。结果表明，近紫外光照 （300～400 nm）可增强对幼虫超氧化物歧化酶活体活力( in vivo )和离体活力( in vitro )。经光敏化合物处理后，在紫外光照下，超氧化物歧化酶活体活力基本不受化合物 5的影响，但能被 α -三噻吩抑制；离体情况下，无论光照与否，化 合物5均不影响其活力， α -三噻吩在低剂量下有抑制作用，而在高剂量下则可使其活力 增强，显示了不同的剂量反应关系。表明无论在离体还是活体的情况下，幼虫对 α -三噻吩的光敏性优于化合物5。对两种化合物光敏作用的可能机理进行 了探讨。     

内毒素对仔鸡血浆SOD活性及MDA水平的影响

为了探讨大肠埃希菌O55∶B5的内毒素(LPS)对仔鸡的损伤机理,将168只仔鸡随机分成4组(n=42),即对照组,100 mg/kgLPS组,200 mg/kg LPS组,300 mg/kg LPS组。灌服内毒素后,分别于2,4,8,12,24,48 h和72 h处死鸡(各时间点均为6只),测定血浆SOD活性和MDA浓度。结果表明,与对照组相比,各剂量组鸡血浆SOD活性均明显降低,MDA含量均明显升高(P<0.05)。且各剂量组之间SOD活性随攻毒剂量的增加而降低,随时间的延长先降低后升高;MDA含量随攻毒剂量的增加而升高,随时间的延长先升高后降低。表明一定量内毒素能诱发鸡体内氧自由基的产生,显著降低机体中SOD的活性和提高MDA的含量。     

Pea extracellular Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase responsive to signal molecules from a fungal pathogen

We previously reported that the release of O₂ ⁻ from isolated pea cell walls was enhanced by a 70-kDa glycoprotein elicitor but was suppressed by mucin-type glycopeptide suppressors (supprescins A and B) prepared from pycnospore germination fluid of Mycosphaerella pinodes, causal agent of Mycosphaerella blight of pea. Here, we show that superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the apoplast fluid/cell wall of pea seedlings responds to the fungal elicitor and suppressor molecules. In a pharmacological study and with internal amino acid sequencing, the apoplastic SOD in a pea cultivar Midoriusui was found to be a Cu/Zn type SOD. We cloned a full-length cDNA of the Cu/Zn-SOD and designated it as PsCu/Zn-SOD1. An increase in PsCu/Zn-SOD1 mRNA and the PsCu/Zn-SOD1 protein was induced by treatment with the elicitor more intensively than by wounding. Such induction by the elicitor or wounding, however, was inhibited by the concomitant presence of supprescins. The SOD activity of recombinant PsCu/Zn-SOD1 was regulated directly by these signal molecules in a manner similar to their effect on the SOD activity in the apoplastic fluid and in the cell wall-bound proteins. Based on these findings, we discuss a role for PsCu/Zn-SOD1 in the pea defense response. The nucleotide sequence data of PsCu/Zn-SOD1 reported are available in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases under accession number AB189165.

Changes in antioxidative system and membrane damage of lettuce in response to salinity and boron toxicity

Individual and combined effects of salinity and B toxicity on growth, the major antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, SOD; catalase, CAT; ascorbate peroxidase, APX) activities, ascorbic acid, proline, and H₂O₂ accumulation, and stomatal resistance (SR), malondialdehyde (MDA), membrane permeability (MP) and the concentrations of sodium (Na), chloride (Cl) and boron (B) of lettuce were investigated. Boron toxicity and salinity reduced growth of lettuce plants. Under B toxicity, B concentration of the plants was increased, but in the presence of NaCl, the concentration of B was significantly reduced. Sodium and Cl concentrations were increased in B + NaCl and NaCl treatments. Membrane damage was more pronounced in NaCl and B + NaCl treatments. Stomatal resistance of the plants was significantly increased by salinity treatments. The accumulation of proline and ascorbic acid was the highest in the B + NaCl treatment. In general, stress conditions significantly increased H₂O₂ and antioxidant enzyme (SOD, CAT and APX) activities. The present results indicate that stomatal closure is an important response of lettuce against NaCl and B + NaCl stress. Furthermore NaCl and B + NaCl toxicity-induced oxidative stress in lettuce resulting in lipid peroxidation and membrane damage. Increased antioxidant enzyme activities and also accumulation of ascorbic acid and proline are involved in order to overcome B- and NaCl-induced oxidative stress.     

Effects of 5‐aminolevulinic acid on water uptake,ionic toxicity,and antioxidant capacity of Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L.) under sodic‐alkaline conditions

Sodic‐alkalinity may be more deleterious to plant growth than salinity. The objectives of this study were to determine whether 5‐aminolevulinic acid (ALA: an essential precursor for chlorophyll biosynthesis) foliar application could improve the sodic‐alkaline resistance of Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L. subsp. cicla ) by regulating water uptake, ionic homeostasis, photosynthetic capacity, and antioxidant metabolism. Eight‐week‐old uniform plants were grown in nutrient medium without and with a sodic‐alkaline regime generated by a mixture of NaHCO₃ and Na₂CO₃ (NaHCO₃ : Na₂CO₃ = 9:1 molar ratio) for 12 d, and leaves were sprayed daily with water or ALA. The Na⁺ and ALA concentrations were gradually increased to 60 mM and 120 μM, respectively. ALA foliar application alleviated the physiological damage from sodic‐alkalinity, as reflected by the increases in plant dry weight, relative growth rate, chlorophyll, Mg²⁺ concentration, and the decrease in Na⁺ concentration. However, ALA foliar application did not change the water uptake capacity or the concentration of K⁺, Fe³⁺, and endogenous ALA in leaf tissues under sodic‐alkaline conditions. ALA foliar application effectively mitigated damage from sodic‐alkalinity because of the increased activity of antioxidant enzymes (catalase and guaiacol peroxidase), particularly superoxide dismutase activity, which was maintained at the same level as for control plants. These results suggest that ALA foliar application alleviated sodic‐alkaline stress mainly owing to its antioxidant capacity, and superoxide dismutase has the main responsibility for reducing oxidative stress in Swiss chard.
