High efficiency of the cultivation of unfertilized sugar beet ovules and preparation of haploid regenerants (microclones) of pollinators – maintainers of О-type sterility and MS forms of the RMS 120 hybrid components has been shown. A technological method that accelerates the creation of new uniform starting material is proposed. It speeds up the breeding process two to threefold. The identification of haploid regenerants with sterile cytoplasm in initial populations is of great theoretical and practical importance for breeding, as it facilitates the production of homozygous lines with cytoplasmic male sterility and high-performance hybrids on sterile basis. As shown by molecular analysis, a single-nucleotide polymorphism never reported hitherto is present in the mitochondrial genome of the haploid plant regenerants. It allows identification of microclones as fertile and sterile forms. It has been found that DNA markers of the sugar beet mitochondrial genome belonging to the TR minisatellite family (TR1 and TR3) enable reliable enough identification of haploid microclonal plants as MSor O-type forms. Fragments of 1000 bp in length have been detected in monogenic forms in the analysis of 11 sugar beet plants cultured in vitro by PCR with the OP-S4 random RAPD primer. Testing of the OP-S4 marker’s being in the same linkage group as the genes responsible for expression of the economically valuable trait monogermity demonstrates its relative reliability. By the proposed method, dihaploid lines (DH) of the male-sterile form and the О-type sterility maintainer of the RMS 120 sugar beet hybrid have been obtained in in vitro culture. These lines are highly uniform in biomorphological traits, as proven under field conditions.

AbstractPersian poppy (Papaver bracteatum Lindl.) is an important commercial source of medicinal opiates and related compounds. In this research, calli were induced from seeds, roots, cotyledons and hypocotyls of P. bracteatum at a high efficiency. The optimized callus induction media consisted of the Murashige and Skoog (MS) basic media supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 0.1 mg/L kinetin and 15 mg/L ascorbic acid. The concentrations of 2,4-D and ascorbic acid were found critical to callus induction and proliferation. Subsequent subcultures resulted in excellent callus proliferation. Ascorbic acid at concentration 15 mg/L increased the callus proliferation significantly. Maximum callus growth was achieved when the explants were incubated at 25°C. MS salts at full strength were found inhibitory for callus induction, while ľ MS salts were found to favor callus induction. Shoot regeneration of calli in vitro was achieved on ľ MS medium containing 0.5 mg/L benzylamine purine and 1.0 mg/L naphthalene acetic acid. Analysis of alkaloid extracts from Persian poppy tissues by high-performance liquid chromatography showed that thebaine accumulated in the tissues of plants. The thebaine alkaloid profile of the Persian poppy is a well-defined model to evaluate the potential for metabolic engineering of thebaine production in P. bracteatum.

The features of rhizogenesis of male-sterile simple hybrids, maternal components of sugar beet heterozosis hybrid and O-types of Darinka variety grown from seeds were investigated. The paper presents the results of studying the main basic nutrient media (B5–A1, B5–A2, B5–A3, B5–A4, B5–A5 and B5–A6) for rhizogenesis, in which the content of macro- and microelements has been reduced by three times, the content of sucrose is reduced by almost 6 times, the amount of agar is reduced by almost five times, while the vitamin РР content is increased by 1.6 times, and the BAP is completely removed. The largest number of rooted microclones was obtained with NAAs by the high indexes of average number of roots and medium indexes of average roots length. To the second, by the number of rooted microclones is assigned, media of 2,4–D, 2,4–DB containing, potassium salt of NAA and IBA were classified, while IAA was characterized by a lower efficiency. The possibilities of regulation of growth and development processes of sugar beet in vitro explants in favor of undifferentiated growth at the stage of proliferation or organogenesis (hemo- and rhizogenesis) have been determined. To improve the quality of rooting of sugar beet plants-regenerants, we have developed the method for dimming agarized nutrient medium with methylene blue at a 0.05% concentration, which made it possible to reduce the inhibitory effect of light on the development of lateral roots. The average index of micro-roots rooting for MS-forms was 81.5 %. The technology of adaptation of micro-roots rooting was developed, in which the plant material at the initial stage of growth had slight morphological changes in the puffer apparatus and stem, but by the end of the vegetation, the plants acquired the appearance characteristic of the donor plants of explants. The clone’s resiliency is reached about 100% in the soil. According to the variability of morphological characteristics in reproduced in vitro sugar beet plants of the MS-forms of the Darynka hybrid, all the plants grown from the regenerants were more, than seed progeny from seed sowing of the same component obtained as a result of the attachment of sterility to the corresponding O-type. It has been found that in vitro cultivation has not weakened, and in some cases even increased the mitotic index of meristem cells of young roots of sugar beet. Most genotypes have reduced the number of pathological mitoses, apparently due to the activation of reparative systems, but did not extend the duration of individual phases of mitosis; without increasing the number of anaphase with bridges and fragments, but changed the number of anaphases with other chromosomal abnormalities. In all variants of the experiment, where activation of growth processes has been observed, the lowest variability of the signs is observed, that is, under the influence of stimulants, which are part of nutrient media, obviously there is unification of cell populations.

Abstract Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important raw material for the sugar industry, and its output is second only to sugar cane. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a phenomenon of pollen abortion that has important implications in sugar beet hybrid breeding. Male plant sterility is usually considered to be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Although mitochondrial genes associated with male sterility have been well explored, the different mitochondrial proteomics of CMS in sugar beet are still poorly understood. In this study, differentially expressed mitochondrial proteomic analysis was performed on the flower buds of the male sterile line (DY5-CMS), its maintainer line (DY5-O) and a fertility restorer line (CL6), using an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) technology. A total of 2260 proteins were identified by mass spectrometry, of which 538 were differentially expressed proteins. Most of them were involved in protein metabolism, carbohydrate and energy metabolism, and binding. More specifically, some cysteine and methionine metabolism proteins (A0A0J8BGE0, A0A0J8CZM6, A0A0J8D7W0 and A0A0J8BCR7) may play important roles during the formation of CMS. This study provided an in–depth understanding of the CMS molecular mechanism at the protein level in sugar beet.

Abstract. We have partially purified a tumour factor capable of stimulating both bone resorption in vitro and cAMP accumulation in osteoblastic ROS 17/2 cells from three human tumours associated with humoral hypercalcaemia of malignancy. Purification of tumour factor by sequential acid urea extraction, gel filtration and cation-exchange chromatography, reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography followed by analytical isoelectric focussing provided a basic protein (pI > 9.3) with a molecular weight of approximately 13 000 as a major component of the final preparation which retained both the two bioactivities. Bone resorbing activity and cAMP-increasing activity in purified factor correlated with each other. cAMP-increasing activity of the factor was heat- and acid-stable, but sensitive to alkaline ambient pH. Treatment with trypsin destroyed cAMP-increasing activity of the factor. Synthetic parathyroid hormone (PTH) antagonist, human PTH-(3– 34) completely inhibited the cAMP-increasing activity of the factor. The results suggest that this protein factor, having its effects on both osteoclastic and osteoblastic functions, may be involved in development of enhanced bone resorption in some patients with humoral hypercalcaemia of malignancy.

PEGylated gelatin nanoparticles loaded with colchicine were prepared by ethanol precipitation method. Poly-(ethylene glycol)-5000-monomethylether (MPEG 5000), a hydrophilic polymer, was used to pegylate gelatin.  Gluteraldehyde was used as cross-linking agent. To obtain a high quality product, major formulation parameters were optimized.  Spherical particles with mean particles of 193 nm were measured by a Malvern particle size analyzer. Entrapment efficiency was found to be 71.7 ± 1.4% and determined with reverse phase high performance liquid charomatography (RP-HPLC). The in vitro drug release study was performed by dialysis bag method for a period of 168 hours. Lyophilizaton study showed sucrose at lower concentrations proved the best cryoprotectant for this formulation.  Stability study revealed that lyophilized nanoparticles were equally effective (p < 0.05) after one year of storage at 2-8°C with ambient humidity. In vitro antitumoral activity was accessed using the MCF-7 cell line by MTT assay.  The IC50 value was found to be 0.034 μg/ml for the prepared formulation. The results indicate that PEGylated gelatin nanoparticles could be utilized as a potential drug delivery for targeted drug delivery of tumors.

The safety and efficacy of a drug is based on its metabolism or metabolite formed. The metabolism of drugs can be studied by different in vitro models, among which microbial model became popular. In the present study, eight microbes were screened for their ability to metabolize phenobarbital in a manner comparable to humans with a model to develop alternative systems to study human drug metabolism. Among the different microbes screened, a filamentous fungi Rhizopus stolonifer metabolized phenobarbital to its metabolite which is used for further pharmacological and toxicological studies. The transformation of phenobarbital was identified by high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Interestingly, Rhizopus stolonifer sample showed an extra metabolite peak at 3.11min. compared to its controls. The influence of different carbon sources in media used for growth of fungus, on metabolite production was studied, to find its effect in production of metabolite as the carbon source may influence the growth of the cell.

Holoptelea integrifolia Roxb. Planch (HI) has been used to treat various ailments including obesity, osteoarthritis, arthritis, inflammation, anemia, diabetes etc. To review the major phytochemicals and medicinal properties of HI, exhaustive bibliographic research was designed by means of various scientific search engines and databases. Only 12 phytochemicals have been reported including biologically active compounds like betulin, betulinic acid, epifriedlin, octacosanol, Friedlin, Holoptelin-A and Holoptelin-B. Analytical methods including the Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC), High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Liquid Chromatography With Mass Spectral (LC-MS) analysis have been used to analyze the HI. From medicinal potency point of view, these phytochemicals have a wide range of pharmacological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor. In the current review, it has been noticed that the mechanism of action of HI with biomolecules has not been fully explored. Pharmacology and toxicological studies are very few. This seems a huge literature gap to be fulfilled through the detailed in-vivo and in-vitro studies.
