6 could use lots of photosynthates, but contributed little to the accumulation of biomass. 4. Photosynthetic rate of P. armeniacum decreased a little at the noon, and the highest photosynthetic rate was observed at 10:00h in the greenhouse. The variation of photosynthetic rate was in the same trend as stomatal conductance. Higher relative humidity seemed to be the key for higher photosynthetic rate in P. armeniacum. 5. The photosynthetic capacity of C. flavum was statistically larger than that of P. armeniacum. The lower leaf photosynthetic capacity of P. armeniacum was related to its lower leaf nitrogen concentration,leaf phosphorus concentration and enzyme activities. Meanwhile, the extremely lower stomatal conductance and internal mesophyll conductance might greatly limit the photosynthetic capacity of P. armeniacum. The lower stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate of Paphiopedilum might partially caused by the lack of chloroplasts in the guard cell of Paphiopedilum. Compared with C. flavum, P. armeniacum was more fond of shade environment.6. The short longevity leaf of Cypripedium had bigger photosynthetic capacity and greater potential for fast growth. But the longer LL of Paphiopedilum enhanced nutrient conservation which could compensate its lower photosynthetic capacity. The short longevity leaf of Cypripedium usually had higher photosynthetic rate per unit leaf mass and dark respiration rate, and photosynthetic capacity decreased fast with leaf age. However, for Paphiopedilum, the situation was the opposite. 7. Compared with Cypripedium, Paphiopedilum had higher water use efficiency and lower photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency. 8. The leaf of Paphiopedilum had higher leaf construction cost and longer repayment time than that of Cypripedium. The leaf structures and physiological functions of Paphiopedilum and Cypripedium reflected the adaptation to their habitats. The leaf morphological and physiological evolution of Paphiopedilum was related to water and resource-conserving traits in the karst habitat. The leaf traits of Cypripedium were the adaptation to the environment rich in water and nutrients but easy to change with seasons.Our results provided evidence of divergent evolution of congeneric orchids under natural selection.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3APaphiopedilum%5C+and%5C+Cypripedium%5C+are%5C+close%5C+relatives%5C+belonging%5C+to%5C+the%5C+subfamily%5C+Cypripedioideae.%5C+However%2C%5C+they%5C+undergo%5C+considerable%5C+divergence%5C+in%5C+the%5C+aspects%5C+of%5C+life%5C+forms%2C%5C+leaf%5C+traits%5C+and%5C+habitats.%5C+In%5C+present%5C+study%2C%5C+leaf%5C+morphologies%5C+and%5C+anatomical%5C+structures%2C%5C+leaf%5C+lifespans%2C%5C+leaf%5C+mass%5C+per%5C+area%2C%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacities%2C%5C+nutrient%5C+use%5C+efficiencies%2C%5C+leaf%5C+construction%5C+costs%2C%5C+and%5C+maintenance%5C+costs%5C+were%5C+investigated%5C+to%5C+understand%5C+the%5C+relationship%5C+between%5C+leaf%5C+traits%5C+and%5C+ecophysiological%5C+adaptability%5C+of%5C+the%5C+two%5C+types%5C+of%5C+plants%5C+and%5C+explore%5C+the%5C+related%5C+ecological%5C+and%5C+evolutionary%5C+significances.%5C+The%5C+results%5C+suggest%5C+that%5C%3A1.%5C+Compared%5C+with%5C+Cypripedium%2C%5C+Paphiopedilum%5C+was%5C+characterized%5C+by%5C+drought%5C+tolerance%5C+from%5C+its%5C+leaf%5C+anatomical%5C+structure%5C+including%5C+fleshy%5C+leaf%2C%5C+thicker%5C+surface%5C+cuticle%2C%5C+huge%5C+abaxial%5C+epidermis%5C+cells%2C%5C+differentiation%5C+of%5C+palisade%5C+and%5C+spongy%5C+mesophyll%5C+layers%2C%5C+the%5C+prominent%5C+of%5C+mucilaginous%5C+substances%2C%5C+supportable%5C+leaf%5C+main%5C+vein%2C%5C+lower%5C+total%5C+stoma%5C+area%5C+%5C%28%25%5C%29%2C%5C+sunken%5C+stomata%5C+and%5C+special%5C+stoma%5C+structure.%5C+Leaf%5C+morphologies%5C+and%5C+structures%5C+of%5C+Cypripedium%5C+were%5C+to%5C+the%5C+contrary%5C+of%5C+Paphiopedilum.%5C+Leaf%5C+morphologies%5C+and%5C+structures%5C+embodied%5C+the%5C+adaptation%5C+to%5C+the%5C+environment%5C+in%5C+both%5C+Paphiopedilum%5C+and%5C+Cypripedium.%5C+Our%5C+results%5C+also%5C+confirmed%5C+the%5C+previous%5C+observation%5C+that%5C+Paphiopedilum%5C+was%5C+the%5C+only%5C+genus%5C+that%5C+did%5C+not%5C+possess%5C+guard%5C+cell%5C+chloroplasts.2.%5C+The%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacities%5C+of%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum%5C+leaves%5C+were%5C+different%5C+with%5C+different%5C+leaf%5C+ages.%5C+The%5C+highest%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+occurred%5C+in%5C+leaf%5C+age%5C+1%5C-2%5C+years%2C%5C+followed%5C+by%5C+1%5C+year%5C+and%5C+2%5C-4%5C+years.%5C+The%5C+highest%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+of%5C+C.%5C+flavum%5C+occurred%5C+in%5C+leaf%5C+age%5C+60%5C+days%2C%5C+followed%5C+by%5C+30%5C+days%2C%5C+90%5C+days%5C+and%5C+120%5C+days.%5C+3.%5C+Photosynthetic%5C+capacities%5C+of%5C+different%5C+leaf%5C+positions%5C+were%5C+mainly%5C+affected%5C+by%5C+leaf%5C+ages%5C+in%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum.%5C+The%5C+four%5C+leaves%5C+lying%5C+on%5C+the%5C+top%5C+did%5C+the%5C+most%5C+accumulation%5C+of%5C+the%5C+assimilation%5C+products%5C+in%5C+the%5C+whole%5C+plant.%5C+The%5C+leaves%5C+of%5C+sequence%5C+number%5C+%3E%5C+6%5C+could%5C+use%5C+lots%5C+of%5C+photosynthates%2C%5C+but%5C+contributed%5C+little%5C+to%5C+the%5C+accumulation%5C+of%5C+biomass.%5C+4.%5C+Photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C+of%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum%5C+decreased%5C+a%5C+little%5C+at%5C+the%5C+noon%2C%5C+and%5C+the%5C+highest%5C+photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C+was%5C+observed%5C+at%5C+10%5C%3A00h%5C+in%5C+the%5C+greenhouse.%5C+The%5C+variation%5C+of%5C+photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C+was%5C+in%5C+the%5C+same%5C+trend%5C+as%5C+stomatal%5C+conductance.%5C+Higher%5C+relative%5C+humidity%5C+seemed%5C+to%5C+be%5C+the%5C+key%5C+for%5C+higher%5C+photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C+in%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum.%5C+5.%5C+The%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+of%5C+C.%5C+flavum%5C+was%5C+statistically%5C+larger%5C+than%5C+that%5C+of%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum.%5C+The%5C+lower%5C+leaf%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+of%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum%5C+was%5C+related%5C+to%5C+its%5C+lower%5C+leaf%5C+nitrogen%5C+concentration%2Cleaf%5C+phosphorus%5C+concentration%5C+and%5C+enzyme%5C+activities.%5C+Meanwhile%2C%5C+the%5C+extremely%5C+lower%5C+stomatal%5C+conductance%5C+and%5C+internal%5C+mesophyll%5C+conductance%5C+might%5C+greatly%5C+limit%5C+the%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+of%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum.%5C+The%5C+lower%5C+stomatal%5C+conductance%5C+and%5C+photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C+of%5C+Paphiopedilum%5C+might%5C+partially%5C+caused%5C+by%5C+the%5C+lack%5C+of%5C+chloroplasts%5C+in%5C+the%5C+guard%5C+cell%5C+of%5C+Paphiopedilum.%5C+Compared%5C+with%5C+C.%5C+flavum%2C%5C+P.%5C+armeniacum%5C+was%5C+more%5C+fond%5C+of%5C+shade%5C+environment.6.%5C+The%5C+short%5C+longevity%5C+leaf%5C+of%5C+Cypripedium%5C+had%5C+bigger%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity%5C+and%5C+greater%5C+potential%5C+for%5C+fast%5C+growth.%5C+But%5C+the%5C+longer%5C+LL%5C+of%5C+Paphiopedilum%5C+enhanced%5C+nutrient%5C+conservation%5C+which%5C+could%5C+compensate%5C+its%5C+lower%5C+photosynthetic%5C+capacity.%5C+The%5C+short%5C+longevity%5C+leaf%5C+of%5C+Cypripedium%5C+usually%5C+had%5C+higher%5C+photosynthetic%5C+rate%5C

secondary metabolites are a class of small molecular compounds which are not necessary for plant growth and development in nature. They have many types and different functions. The current studies about these compounds were often focused on the chemistry, pharmacology and drug development. Research about their biological effects is few. Exploration the biological effects of plant secondary metabolites is important to study their biological function and application. Scutellarin is an active pharmaceutical ingredient extracted from Erigeron breviscapus(vant) Hand Mass. It is an important plant secondary metabolite, belonging to flavonoid. Previous studies found that some flavonoids such as quercetin, naringenin were auxin transport inhibitors in plants and they were related to plant growth and development closely. As an important flavonoid, scutellarin also plays an important role in plant growth and development is unknown. In this paper, scutellarin was selected as research object. Through a series of plant physiological, biochemical and molecular techniques to explore the biological effects of scutellarin on Arabidopsis thaliana, we get the results as follows: Scutellarin had a hormone-like effect on Arabidopsis thaliana. It promoted root elongation at low concentration obviously; however the effect disappeared at high concentration. We made a further study about it and found that scutellarin had antagonism with methyl jasmonate and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) in root elongation. It also had an influence on nitrogen metabolism. Microarray results showed that the biological effects of scutellarin had a complex relationship with plant hormone and nitrogen metabolism. These were consistent with our experimental phenomenas. All these manifested that scutellarin played an important role in plant growth and development as a similar plant hormone. We tried the experiment using some other flavonoids. It was found that not all the flavonoids had the same obvious effects on root elongation like scutellarin; the biological effects of them were closely related to their chemical structures. In addition, the other two aspects of research were also carried out in the paper. One was exploring the role of phospholipase Dδ (PLDδ) under ultraviolet radiation in Arabidopsis. Our evidences suggested knockout PLDδ intensified membrane damage induced by UV radiation. The other one was lipid data collection and calculation of acyl chain lengths of lipid molecules in Arabidopsis under senescence induced by various stresses. We showed that the acyl chains of phosphoserine (PS, a head-group class of membrane glycerolipids with very long chains of fatty acids.) lengthened with the development and senescence in Arabidopsis. In contrast, the acyl chain lengths of other major head-group classes of membrane glycerolipids subtly fluctuated.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3APlant%5C+secondary%5C+metabolites%5C+are%5C+a%5C+class%5C+of%5C+small%5C+molecular%5C+compounds%5C+which%5C+are%5C+not%5C+necessary%5C+for%5C+plant%5C+growth%5C+and%5C+development%5C+in%5C+nature.%5C+They%5C+have%5C+many%5C+types%5C+and%5C+different%5C+functions.%5C+The%5C+current%5C+studies%5C+about%5C+these%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+often%5C+focused%5C+on%5C+the%5C+chemistry%2C%5C+pharmacology%5C+and%5C+drug%5C+development.%5C+Research%5C+about%5C+their%5C+biological%5C+effects%5C+is%5C+few.%5C+Exploration%5C+the%5C+biological%5C+effects%5C+of%5C+plant%5C+secondary%5C+metabolites%5C+is%5C+important%5C+to%5C+study%5C+their%5C+biological%5C+function%5C+and%5C+application.%5C+Scutellarin%5C+is%5C+an%5C+active%5C+pharmaceutical%5C+ingredient%5C+extracted%5C+from%5C+Erigeron%5C+breviscapus%5C%28vant%5C%29%5C+Hand%5C+Mass.%5C+It%5C+is%5C+an%5C+important%5C+plant%5C+secondary%5C+metabolite%2C%5C+belonging%5C+to%5C+flavonoid.%5C+Previous%5C+studies%5C+found%5C+that%5C+some%5C+flavonoids%5C+such%5C+as%5C+quercetin%2C%5C+naringenin%5C+were%5C+auxin%5C+transport%5C+inhibitors%5C+in%5C+plants%5C+and%5C+they%5C+were%5C+related%5C+to%5C+plant%5C+growth%5C+and%5C+development%5C+closely.%5C+As%5C+an%5C+important%5C+flavonoid%2C%5C+scutellarin%5C+also%5C+plays%5C+an%5C+important%5C+role%5C+in%5C+plant%5C+growth%5C+and%5C+development%5C+is%5C+unknown.%5C+In%5C+this%5C+paper%2C%5C+scutellarin%5C+was%5C+selected%5C+as%5C+research%5C+object.%5C+Through%5C+a%5C+series%5C+of%5C+plant%5C+physiological%2C%5C+biochemical%5C+and%5C+molecular%5C+techniques%5C+to%5C+explore%5C+the%5C+biological%5C+effects%5C+of%5C+scutellarin%5C+on%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+thaliana%2C%5C+we%5C+get%5C+the%5C+results%5C+as%5C+follows%5C%3A%5C+Scutellarin%5C+had%5C+a%5C+hormone%5C-like%5C+effect%5C+on%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+thaliana.%5C+It%5C+promoted%5C+root%5C+elongation%5C+at%5C+low%5C+concentration%5C+obviously%5C%3B%5C+however%5C+the%5C+effect%5C+disappeared%5C+at%5C+high%5C+concentration.%5C+We%5C+made%5C+a%5C+further%5C+study%5C+about%5C+it%5C+and%5C+found%5C+that%5C+scutellarin%5C+had%5C+antagonism%5C+with%5C+methyl%5C+jasmonate%5C+and%5C+2%2C4%5C-dichlorophenoxy%5C+acetic%5C+acid%5C+%5C%282%2C4%5C-D%5C%29%5C+in%5C+root%5C+elongation.%5C+It%5C+also%5C+had%5C+an%5C+influence%5C+on%5C+nitrogen%5C+metabolism.%5C+Microarray%5C+results%5C+showed%5C+that%5C+the%5C+biological%5C+effects%5C+of%5C+scutellarin%5C+had%5C+a%5C+complex%5C+relationship%5C+with%5C+plant%5C+hormone%5C+and%5C+nitrogen%5C+metabolism.%5C+These%5C+were%5C+consistent%5C+with%5C+our%5C+experimental%5C+phenomenas.%5C+All%5C+these%5C+manifested%5C+that%5C+scutellarin%5C+played%5C+an%5C+important%5C+role%5C+in%5C+plant%5C+growth%5C+and%5C+development%5C+as%5C+a%5C+similar%5C+plant%5C+hormone.%5C+We%5C+tried%5C+the%5C+experiment%5C+using%5C+some%5C+other%5C+flavonoids.%5C+It%5C+was%5C+found%5C+that%5C+not%5C+all%5C+the%5C+flavonoids%5C+had%5C+the%5C+same%5C+obvious%5C+effects%5C+on%5C+root%5C+elongation%5C+like%5C+scutellarin%5C%3B%5C+the%5C+biological%5C+effects%5C+of%5C+them%5C+were%5C+closely%5C+related%5C+to%5C+their%5C+chemical%5C+structures.%5C+In%5C+addition%2C%5C+the%5C+other%5C+two%5C+aspects%5C+of%5C+research%5C+were%5C+also%5C+carried%5C+out%5C+in%5C+the%5C+paper.%5C+One%5C+was%5C+exploring%5C+the%5C+role%5C+of%5C+phospholipase%5C+D%CE%B4%5C+%5C%28PLD%CE%B4%5C%29%5C+under%5C+ultraviolet%5C+radiation%5C+in%5C+Arabidopsis.%5C+Our%5C+evidences%5C+suggested%5C+knockout%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C+intensified%5C+membrane%5C+damage%5C+induced%5C+by%5C+UV%5C+radiation.%5C+The%5C+other%5C+one%5C+was%5C+lipid%5C+data%5C+collection%5C+and%5C+calculation%5C+of%5C+acyl%5C+chain%5C+lengths%5C+of%5C+lipid%5C+molecules%5C+in%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+under%5C+senescence%5C+induced%5C+by%5C+various%5C+stresses.%5C+We%5C+showed%5C+that%5C+the%5C+acyl%5C+chains%5C+of%5C+phosphoserine%5C+%5C%28PS%2C%5C+a%5C+head%5C-group%5C+class%5C+of%5C+membrane%5C+glycerolipids%5C+with%5C+very%5C+long%5C+chains%5C+of%5C+fatty%5C+acids.%5C%29%5C+lengthened%5C+with%5C+the%5C+development%5C+and%5C+senescence%5C+in%5C+Arabidopsis.%5C+In%5C+contrast%2C%5C+the%5C+acyl%5C+chain%5C+lengths%5C+of%5C+other%5C+major%5C+head%5C-group%5C+classes%5C+of%5C+membrane%5C+glycerolipids%5C+subtly%5C+fluctuated."},{"jsname":"Seeds contain the entire genetic information of plants, which enable to develop the technology of seed preservation for the conservation of plant diversity. The mechanism of cell death in seeds, which are induced by ageing of orthodox seeds and desiccation of recalcitrant and intermediate seeds are two important areas in seed biology but poorly understood.Those two areas were investigated in this dissertation, and Pisum sativum, Camellia sinensis var. assamica, Castanea mollissima were chosen to represent orthodox, intermediate and recalcitrant seeds respectively as studied models. Biophysical, biochemical and molecular methods were employed to investigate the cell death mechanism during seeds ageing and desiccation.First of all, Ageing induced porgrammed cell death in seeds.The morphology change, nucleic acid integrity, and gene expression during ageing of Pisum sativum seeds were investigated.The data above confirmed that PCD is an underlying mechanism of seed mortality. Moreover, glutathione played an important function during seeds ageing.An increase in glutathione redox potential (EGSSG/2GSH) while seed lost viability was discovered during ageing of P. sativum seeds. Seed viability decreased 50% when EGSSG/2GSH attained values of -180 to -160 mV, which proved that EGSSG/2GSH was a marker for seeds viability. Secondely,Reactive oxygen species plays different roles in the seed germination after desiccation. After different desiccation treatments on the tea (C. sinensis var. assamica) seeds, the relationship between ROS dose and the viability of seeds after desication treatment was investigated. The results demonstrated that the presence of ROS could released the damage of desiccation on the tea seeds. Thridly,the composition of membrane lipid species and the change during desiccation in seeds with different storage behavior. Cell membrane is very sensitive to environment, and adjust the composition of lipid molecules is one of the main methord for cell to response the environmental changes. There is a rule that phosphatidic acid (PA), with special structure, is very sensitive to temperature and water stress, and the increase of PA content indicates the damage of the cell membrane. ESI/MS-MS technology was used to analysis and compare the composition and changes membrane lipid species during desiccation treatments of Pisum sativum, Camellia sinensis var. assamica, Castanea mollissima seeds which represented orthodox, intermediate and recalcitrant seeds respectively. The results showed that the responses of PA to dehydration in embryonic axis of orhtordox and recalcitrant seeds were different. The percentage increasement of PA in orthodox seed during desiccation was not incredible and the level of PA decreased and achieved the same level as controled, while PA level increased dramatically without showing any decrease trend in recalcitrant seed, which indicated that the damage to membrane of recalcitrant seeds was inevitable. Those results indicted that the dehydration might induced reversible memebrane damage in the orthodox seed, which may result in no affect on the seed viability, while it might induced irreversible membrane damage to the recalcitrant seed, which inducned the dramatically reduce of viabiligy and cell death in the end. It was the first time to investigate and analysis systematically the composition and changes of membrane lipids of different storage behavior seeds during desiccation.

By variety of chromatographies over various materials, Eighty-seven compounds were isolated from the two plants and eighty of them were identified， of which twenty-two were new compounds and one of them was a novel nortriterpenoids with unprecedented skeleton and another showed the polymorphism. A series of C-20 quassinoids with potent anti-tobacco mosic virus (TMV) activity was found by the bioassay-guided isolation of the seed of Brucea javanica. The characteristic secondary metabolites of Simaroubeaceae--quassinoids were reviewed. Chapter 1, phytochemistry investigation on the seed of Brucea javanica (L) Merr. has led to isolation of 41 compounds, and 34 of them were identified, including 17 quassinoids with anti-TMV activity. Among them compounds 1 and 2 were new quassinoids. Others were alkaloids, ligands, sequiterpenoids, and so on. Chapter 2, tobacco mosic virus inhibiting activity of quassinoids from Brucea javanica (L) Merr. From bioassay-guide isolation 17 quassinoids with potent anti-TMV activities were isolated from the seeds of Brucea javanica (L) Merr. Based on the results of in vivo and in vitro experiments, it was showed that those compounds can both inhibit virus infection and multiplication of TMV. The anti-TMV structure activity relationships were also discussed. Chapter 3, phytochemistry investigation on the leaves and branches of H. perforata has lead to isolation of 32 compounds and 31 were identified, including 20 new limonoids. Among them 1 was a novel limonoids with unprecedented skeleton, and another showed the polymorphism. Besides, 14 compounds, including 8 limonoids along with some triterpenoids, ligands and flavonoids were isolated from the fruit of H. perforata. Among the 14 compounds 1-3 were novel limonoids which have been isolated from the leaves and branches of this species. The limonoids isolated from H. perforata showed structure similarity with those from the Ptaeroxylaceae and Cneoraceae. Furthermore, most of them were the key intermediates of the biogenetic pathway previously proposed by Dr. Xin Fang of our research group. Based on the biogenetic pathway and structure similarity of limonoids it was suggested that the genus of Harrisonia has a very close relationship with Ptaeroxylaceae and Cneoraceae. Chapter 4, reviewed the progress on the phytochemistry study of the quassinoids of Simaroubaceae. The bioactivities along with proposed biogenetic pathway involving quassinoids reported from the Simaroubeaceae were systemically.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+chemistry%5C+constitutes%5C+and%5C+their%5C+anti%5C-tobacco%5C+mosic%5C+virus%5C+activity%5C+from%5C+two%5C+species%5C+of%5C+Simaroubeaceae%2C%5C+namely%5C+Brucea%5C+javanica%5C+%5C%28L%5C%29%5C+Merr.%5C+and%5C+Harrisonia%5C+perforata%5C+%5C%28Blanco%5C%29%5C+Merr%5C+have%5C+been%5C+investigated..%5C+By%5C+variety%5C+of%5C+chromatographies%5C+over%5C+various%5C+materials%2C%5C+Eighty%5C-seven%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+the%5C+two%5C+plants%5C+and%5C+eighty%5C+of%5C+them%5C+were%5C+identified%EF%BC%8C%5C+of%5C+which%5C+twenty%5C-two%5C+were%5C+new%5C+compounds%5C+and%5C+one%5C+of%5C+them%5C+was%5C+a%5C+novel%5C+nortriterpenoids%5C+with%5C+unprecedented%5C+skeleton%5C+and%5C+another%5C+showed%5C+the%5C+polymorphism.%5C+A%5C+series%5C+of%5C+C%5C-20%5C+quassinoids%5C+with%5C+potent%5C+anti%5C-tobacco%5C+mosic%5C+virus%5C+%5C%28TMV%5C%29%5C+activity%5C+was%5C+found%5C+by%5C+the%5C+bioassay%5C-guided%5C+isolation%5C+of%5C+the%5C+seed%5C+of%5C+Brucea%5C+javanica.%5C+The%5C+characteristic%5C+secondary%5C+metabolites%5C+of%5C+Simaroubeaceae%5C-%5C-quassinoids%5C+were%5C+reviewed.%5C+Chapter%5C+1%2C%5C+phytochemistry%5C+investigation%5C+on%5C+the%5C+seed%5C+of%5C+Brucea%5C+javanica%5C+%5C%28L%5C%29%5C+Merr.%5C+has%5C+led%5C+to%5C+isolation%5C+of%5C+41%5C+compounds%2C%5C+and%5C+34%5C+of%5C+them%5C+were%5C+identified%2C%5C+including%5C+17%5C+quassinoids%5C+with%5C+anti%5C-TMV%5C+activity.%5C+Among%5C+them%5C+compounds%5C+1%5C+and%5C+2%5C+were%5C+new%5C+quassinoids.%5C+Others%5C+were%5C+alkaloids%2C%5C+ligands%2C%5C+sequiterpenoids%2C%5C+and%5C+so%5C+on.%5C+Chapter%5C+2%2C%5C+tobacco%5C+mosic%5C+virus%5C+inhibiting%5C+activity%5C+of%5C+quassinoids%5C+from%5C+Brucea%5C+javanica%5C+%5C%28L%5C%29%5C+Merr.%5C+From%5C+bioassay%5C-guide%5C+isolation%5C+17%5C+quassinoids%5C+with%5C+potent%5C+anti%5C-TMV%5C+activities%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+the%5C+seeds%5C+of%5C+Brucea%5C+javanica%5C+%5C%28L%5C%29%5C+Merr.%5C+Based%5C+on%5C+the%5C+results%5C+of%5C+in%5C+vivo%5C+and%5C+in%5C+vitro%5C+experiments%2C%5C+it%5C+was%5C+showed%5C+that%5C+those%5C+compounds%5C+can%5C+both%5C+inhibit%5C+virus%5C+infection%5C+and%5C+multiplication%5C+of%5C+TMV.%5C+The%5C+anti%5C-TMV%5C+structure%5C+activity%5C+relationships%5C+were%5C+also%5C+discussed.%5C+Chapter%5C+3%2C%5C+phytochemistry%5C+investigation%5C+on%5C+the%5C+leaves%5C+and%5C+branches%5C+of%5C+H.%5C+perforata%5C+has%5C+lead%5C+to%5C+isolation%5C+of%5C+32%5C+compounds%5C+and%5C+31%5C+were%5C+identified%2C%5C+including%5C+20%5C+new%5C+limonoids.%5C+Among%5C+them%5C+1%5C+was%5C+a%5C+novel%5C+limonoids%5C+with%5C+unprecedented%5C+skeleton%2C%5C+and%5C+another%5C+showed%5C+the%5C+polymorphism.%5C+Besides%2C%5C+14%5C+compounds%2C%5C+including%5C+8%5C+limonoids%5C+along%5C+with%5C+some%5C+triterpenoids%2C%5C+ligands%5C+and%5C+flavonoids%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+the%5C+fruit%5C+of%5C+H.%5C+perforata.%5C+Among%5C+the%5C+14%5C+compounds%5C+1%5C-3%5C+were%5C+novel%5C+limonoids%5C+which%5C+have%5C+been%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+the%5C+leaves%5C+and%5C+branches%5C+of%5C+this%5C+species.%5C+The%5C+limonoids%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+H.%5C+perforata%5C+showed%5C+structure%5C+similarity%5C+with%5C+those%5C+from%5C+the%5C+Ptaeroxylaceae%5C+and%5C+Cneoraceae.%5C+Furthermore%2C%5C+most%5C+of%5C+them%5C+were%5C+the%5C+key%5C+intermediates%5C+of%5C+the%5C+biogenetic%5C+pathway%5C+previously%5C+proposed%5C+by%5C+Dr.%5C+Xin%5C+Fang%5C+of%5C+our%5C+research%5C+group.%5C+Based%5C+on%5C+the%5C+biogenetic%5C+pathway%5C+and%5C+structure%5C+similarity%5C+of%5C+limonoids%5C+it%5C+was%5C+suggested%5C+that%5C+the%5C+genus%5C+of%5C+Harrisonia%5C+has%5C+a%5C+very%5C+close%5C+relationship%5C+with%5C+Ptaeroxylaceae%5C+and%5C+Cneoraceae.%5C+Chapter%5C+4%2C%5C+reviewed%5C+the%5C+progress%5C+on%5C+the%5C+phytochemistry%5C+study%5C+of%5C+the%5C+quassinoids%5C+of%5C+Simaroubaceae.%5C+The%5C+bioactivities%5C+along%5C+with%5C+proposed%5C+biogenetic%5C+pathway%5C+involving%5C+quassinoids%5C+reported%5C+from%5C+the%5C+Simaroubeaceae%5C+were%5C+systemically."},{"jsname":"The dissertation describes the studies on the chemical constituents and bioactivity of four Salvia plants, Salvia trijuga, Salvia castanea Diels f. pubescens, Salvia splendens, and Salvia flava Forrest ex Diels. By the means of chromatography and spectroscopic evidences, 110 compounds were isolated and identified from the above mentioned four species, among which 22 were new compounds. These compounds include sesquiterpenoid, diterpenoid, triterpenoid, steroid, flavone, phenolic acid and alkaloid compounds. Nine new germacrane sesquiterpenes have been isolated from Salvia trijuga, which is the first report of sesquiterpenoids from this plant. It is significant that two novel diterpenoids with a unique seco-norabietane skeleton and three uncommon C23 abietane diterpenoids were isolated from Salvia castanea Diels f. pubescens. The diterpenoid glucoside was isolated from Salvia splendens for the first time. In addition, the bioactivity tests showed four tanshinone diterpenoids exhibited significant activities against 11b-HSD1 of human and mouse; two tanshinones demonstrated significant effects on promoting T cell proliferation and inhibiting mesenchymal stem cell (MSC).","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+dissertation%5C+describes%5C+the%5C+studies%5C+on%5C+the%5C+chemical%5C+constituents%5C+and%5C+bioactivity%5C+of%5C+four%5C+Salvia%5C+plants%2C%5C+Salvia%5C+trijuga%2C%5C+Salvia%5C+castanea%5C+Diels%5C+f.%5C+pubescens%2C%5C+Salvia%5C+splendens%2C%5C+and%5C+Salvia%5C+flava%5C+Forrest%5C+ex%5C+Diels.%5C+By%5C+the%5C+means%5C+of%5C+chromatography%5C+and%5C+spectroscopic%5C+evidences%2C%5C+110%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+and%5C+identified%5C+from%5C+the%5C+above%5C+mentioned%5C+four%5C+species%2C%5C+among%5C+which%5C+22%5C+were%5C+new%5C+compounds.%5C+These%5C+compounds%5C+include%5C+sesquiterpenoid%2C%5C+diterpenoid%2C%5C+triterpenoid%2C%5C+steroid%2C%5C+flavone%2C%5C+phenolic%5C+acid%5C+and%5C+alkaloid%5C+compounds.%5C+Nine%5C+new%5C+germacrane%5C+sesquiterpenes%5C+have%5C+been%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+Salvia%5C+trijuga%2C%5C+which%5C+is%5C+the%5C+first%5C+report%5C+of%5C+sesquiterpenoids%5C+from%5C+this%5C+plant.%5C+It%5C+is%5C+significant%5C+that%5C+two%5C+novel%5C+diterpenoids%5C+with%5C+a%5C+unique%5C+seco%5C-norabietane%5C+skeleton%5C+and%5C+three%5C+uncommon%5C+C23%5C+abietane%5C+diterpenoids%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+Salvia%5C+castanea%5C+Diels%5C+f.%5C+pubescens.%5C+The%5C+diterpenoid%5C+glucoside%5C+was%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+Salvia%5C+splendens%5C+for%5C+the%5C+first%5C+time.%5C+In%5C+addition%2C%5C+the%5C+bioactivity%5C+tests%5C+showed%5C+four%5C+tanshinone%5C+diterpenoids%5C+exhibited%5C+significant%5C+activities%5C+against%5C+11b%5C-HSD1%5C+of%5C+human%5C+and%5C+mouse%5C%3B%5C+two%5C+tanshinones%5C+demonstrated%5C+significant%5C+effects%5C+on%5C+promoting%5C+T%5C+cell%5C+proliferation%5C+and%5C+inhibiting%5C+mesenchymal%5C+stem%5C+cell%5C+%5C%28MSC%5C%29."},{"jsname":"The dissertation is composed of three chapters. Chapter 1 provided an introduction to the investigation on the chemical constituents of two species of fern, including L. japonicium and S. doederleinii. In the second chapter, we described the isolation and identification of chemical constituents from three species of Viburnum, including V. odoratissimum, V. odoratissimum var. sessilifolrum, and V. foetidum. var. ceanothoides. In the last chapter, we summarized all the natural vibsane-type diterpenoids, and the activity and the synthesis research about them. By means of chromatography methods and spectroscopic evidences, 188 compounds were isolated and identified from the five species of plants, among which 43 compounds were new. The classes of these compounds include Lycopodium alkaloid, triterpenoid, diterpenoid, vibsane-type diterpenoid, steroid, lignan, flavnone, coumarin, phenol, phenolic glycoside. A Lycopodium alkaloid with a novel skeleton, lycojapodine A, was isolated from L. japonicium, as well as other 14 new ones. And 16 vibsane-type diterpenoid were isolated from species of Viburnum, 10 of which were new ones.All the new Lycopodium alkaloid isolated from L. japonicium were evaluated for the inhibition activity of acetylcholine esterase (AChE), part of the known Lycopodium alkaloid isolated from L. japonicium were evaluated for the anticancer activity, and most of the known Lycopodium alkaloid isolated from L. japonicium were evaluated for anti-HIV activity. Some of the vibsane-type diterpenoids were tested for the activity of inducing differentiation about leukaemia, controlling the migration of macrophages, and inducing morphological change in NGF-mediated PC-12 cell.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+dissertation%5C+is%5C+composed%5C+of%5C+three%5C+chapters.%5C+Chapter%5C+1%5C+provided%5C+an%5C+introduction%5C+to%5C+the%5C+investigation%5C+on%5C+the%5C+chemical%5C+constituents%5C+of%5C+two%5C+species%5C+of%5C+fern%2C%5C+including%5C+L.%5C+japonicium%5C+and%5C+S.%5C+doederleinii.%5C+In%5C+the%5C+second%5C+chapter%2C%5C+we%5C+described%5C+the%5C+isolation%5C+and%5C+identification%5C+of%5C+chemical%5C+constituents%5C+from%5C+three%5C+species%5C+of%5C+Viburnum%2C%5C+including%5C+V.%5C+odoratissimum%2C%5C+V.%5C+odoratissimum%5C+var.%5C+sessilifolrum%2C%5C+and%5C+V.%5C+foetidum.%5C+var.%5C+ceanothoides.%5C+In%5C+the%5C+last%5C+chapter%2C%5C+we%5C+summarized%5C+all%5C+the%5C+natural%5C+vibsane%5C-type%5C+diterpenoids%2C%5C+and%5C+the%5C+activity%5C+and%5C+the%5C+synthesis%5C+research%5C+about%5C+them.%5C+By%5C+means%5C+of%5C+chromatography%5C+methods%5C+and%5C+spectroscopic%5C+evidences%2C%5C+188%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+and%5C+identified%5C+from%5C+the%5C+five%5C+species%5C+of%5C+plants%2C%5C+among%5C+which%5C+43%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+new.%5C+The%5C+classes%5C+of%5C+these%5C+compounds%5C+include%5C+Lycopodium%5C+alkaloid%2C%5C+triterpenoid%2C%5C+diterpenoid%2C%5C+vibsane%5C-type%5C+diterpenoid%2C%5C+steroid%2C%5C+lignan%2C%5C+flavnone%2C%5C+coumarin%2C%5C+phenol%2C%5C+phenolic%5C+glycoside.%5C+A%5C+Lycopodium%5C+alkaloid%5C+with%5C+a%5C+novel%5C+skeleton%2C%5C+lycojapodine%5C+A%2C%5C+was%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+L.%5C+japonicium%2C%5C+as%5C+well%5C+as%5C+other%5C+14%5C+new%5C+ones.%5C+And%5C+16%5C+vibsane%5C-type%5C+diterpenoid%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+species%5C+of%5C+Viburnum%2C%5C+10%5C+of%5C+which%5C+were%5C+new%5C+ones.All%5C+the%5C+new%5C+Lycopodium%5C+alkaloid%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+L.%5C+japonicium%5C+were%5C+evaluated%5C+for%5C+the%5C+inhibition%5C+activity%5C+of%5C+acetylcholine%5C+esterase%5C+%5C%28AChE%5C%29%2C%5C+part%5C+of%5C+the%5C+known%5C+Lycopodium%5C+alkaloid%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+L.%5C+japonicium%5C+were%5C+evaluated%5C+for%5C+the%5C+anticancer%5C+activity%2C%5C+and%5C+most%5C+of%5C+the%5C+known%5C+Lycopodium%5C+alkaloid%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+L.%5C+japonicium%5C+were%5C+evaluated%5C+for%5C+anti%5C-HIV%5C+activity.%5C+Some%5C+of%5C+the%5C+vibsane%5C-type%5C+diterpenoids%5C+were%5C+tested%5C+for%5C+the%5C+activity%5C+of%5C+inducing%5C+differentiation%5C+about%5C+leukaemia%2C%5C+controlling%5C+the%5C+migration%5C+of%5C+macrophages%2C%5C+and%5C+inducing%5C+morphological%5C+change%5C+in%5C+NGF%5C-mediated%5C+PC%5C-12%5C+cell."},{"jsname":"The dissertation is comprised of six chapters, in which the chemical and bioactive constituents of nine plants, Melodinus henryi, Melodinus tenuicaudatus, Alstonia scholaris, Alstonia yunnanensis, Lycoris radiata, Lycoris aurea, Litsea cubeba, Poncirus trifoliata, and Pinus yunnanensis, have been phytochemically studied.

Although this reaction plays important role in regulating physical process in plants and anminals, the pathway involved in and detailed regulation mechanism are still unknown or not clear. There are three factors which can affect transphosphatidylation, substrates, enzymes and products. This paper intended to uncover the physical effect of the reaction in detail by changing two indispensable factors, the type of substrate and the PLDs. This paper consist of three researches, the first one, changing the accept substrate of the reaction aims to study the relationship between the structure of alcohols and the physical effect, to reveal the significance of the reaction; secondly, using genetic methods to regulate the expression of PLDs mediating transphosphatidylation intends to study its roles in regulating senescence; thirdly, reducing mostly PA derived from PLDs by addition 1-Butanol try to study the effect of PLD-derived PA on phosphate starvation. 1. Initial research of the effect of alcohols on the palnt growth. In this study, we study on the effect of alcohols on Arabidopsis seed germination, seeding growth and membrane lipids molecules, the metabolic procees and signaling pathway invoved in plant responding to 1-Butanol. According to the results we observed, the toxicity of alcohols and its polarity is positively correlated; the toxicity of alcohols to plants may be related with the butanoate and propanoate metabolic pathway rather than transphosphatidylation, the increase of free IAA is contributed to the resistance to 1-Butanol for WS ecotype Arabidopsis thaliana. Futhermore, five 1-Butanol insensitive mutants have obtained and the mutant sites has identified. Under the same concentration 1-Butanol stress, the five mutants are in better condition no matter physical and chemical level or cellular levels compared to wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana. It is believed that the five mutants definitely provide direct evidence for us to uncover the mechanism of the toxicity of alcohols to plants. 2. The change pattern of the membrane lipid molecules responding to the phytohormones-promoted detached Arabidopsis leaves and the role of PLDα1 and PLDδ in regulating this process. The reason for PLDα1-antisense mutant and PLDδ-knockout mutant delaying phytohormone-promoted senescence may be PLDα1 and PLDδ are response to the ABA and ethylene sinaling; PLDα1-or PLDδ-derived PA contributes to reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation; PLDα1-antisense mutant and PLDδ-knockout mutant have higher level of indole-3-acrtic acid (IAA) and zeatin riboside (ZR) level but lower level of abscisic acid (ABA) and jasmonic acid (JA) compared to wild-type Col and wild-type WS, respectively, which is favorable to retard the phytohormone-promoted detached leaves senescence. 3. Application tert-butanol increase the efficiency of phosphate utilization and absord when the phosphate-limited. The seedinges phosphate-starved or not exposed to 1-Butanol was subjected to lethal stress. However, in low phosphate condition, application of tert-butanol lower anthocyanin accumulation, increase the phosphate levels and the siliques number, in a word, tert-butanol attenuates the symptom of phosphate-starved induced. It is suggested that tert-Butanol can increase the utilization and absord efficiency of the limited phosphate, however, more evidences are needed to prove the mechanism.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+reaction%5C+of%5C+transphosphatidylation%5C+is%5C+which%5C+phospholipase%5C+D%5C+catalyzes%5C+hydrolytic%5C+cleavage%5C+of%5C+the%5C+terminal%5C+phosphate%5C+diester%5C+bond%5C+of%5C+glycerophosphatides%2C%5C+transfer%5C+the%5C+phosphatidyl%5C+moiety%5C+of%5C+a%5C+phospholipids%5C+to%5C+a%5C+primary%5C+alcohol%5C+or%5C+water%2C%5C+producing%5C+phosphatidyl%5C+alcohol%5C+or%5C+phosphatidic%5C+acid%5C+%5C%28PtdOH%5C%29.%5C+Although%5C+this%5C+reaction%5C+plays%5C+important%5C+role%5C+in%5C+regulating%5C+physical%5C+process%5C+in%5C+plants%5C+and%5C+anminals%2C%5C+the%5C+pathway%5C+involved%5C+in%5C+and%5C+detailed%5C+regulation%5C+mechanism%5C+are%5C+still%5C+unknown%5C+or%5C+not%5C+clear.%5C+There%5C+are%5C+three%5C+factors%5C+which%5C+can%5C+affect%5C+transphosphatidylation%2C%5C+substrates%2C%5C+enzymes%5C+and%5C+products.%5C+This%5C+paper%5C+intended%5C+to%5C+uncover%5C+the%5C+physical%5C+effect%5C+of%5C+the%5C+reaction%5C+in%5C+detail%5C+by%5C+changing%5C+two%5C+indispensable%5C+factors%2C%5C+the%5C+type%5C+of%5C+substrate%5C+and%5C+the%5C+PLDs.%5C+This%5C+paper%5C+consist%5C+of%C2%A0three%5C+researches%2C%5C+the%5C+first%5C+one%2C%5C+changing%5C+the%5C+accept%5C+substrate%5C+of%5C+the%5C+reaction%5C+aims%5C+to%5C+study%5C+the%5C+relationship%5C+between%5C+the%5C+structure%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+and%5C+the%5C+physical%5C+effect%2C%5C+to%5C+reveal%5C+the%5C+significance%5C+of%5C+the%5C+reaction%5C%3B%5C+secondly%2C%5C+using%5C+genetic%5C+methods%5C+to%5C+regulate%5C+the%5C+expression%5C+of%5C+PLDs%5C+mediating%5C+transphosphatidylation%5C+intends%5C+to%5C+study%5C+its%5C+roles%5C+in%5C+regulating%5C+senescence%5C%3B%5C+thirdly%2C%5C+reducing%5C+mostly%5C+PA%5C+derived%5C+from%5C+PLDs%5C+by%5C+addition%5C+1%5C-Butanol%5C+try%5C+to%5C+study%5C+the%5C+effect%5C+of%5C+PLD%5C-derived%5C+PA%5C+on%5C+phosphate%5C+starvation.%5C+1.%5C+Initial%5C+research%5C+of%5C+the%5C+effect%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+on%5C+the%5C+palnt%5C+growth.%5C+In%5C+this%5C+study%2C%5C+we%5C+study%5C+on%5C+the%5C+effect%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+on%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+seed%5C+germination%2C%5C+seeding%5C+growth%5C+and%5C+membrane%5C+lipids%5C+molecules%2C%5C+the%5C+metabolic%5C+procees%5C+and%5C+signaling%5C+pathway%5C+invoved%5C+in%5C+plant%5C+responding%5C+to%5C+1%5C-Butanol.%5C+According%5C+to%5C+the%5C+results%5C+we%5C+observed%2C%5C+the%5C+toxicity%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+and%5C+its%5C+polarity%5C+is%5C+positively%5C+correlated%5C%3B%5C+the%5C+toxicity%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+to%5C+plants%5C+may%5C+be%5C+related%5C+with%5C+the%5C+butanoate%5C+and%5C+propanoate%5C+metabolic%5C+pathway%5C+rather%5C+than%5C+transphosphatidylation%2C%5C+the%5C+increase%5C+of%5C+free%5C+IAA%5C+is%5C+contributed%5C+to%5C+the%5C+resistance%5C+to%5C+1%5C-Butanol%5C+for%5C+WS%5C+ecotype%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+thaliana.%5C+Futhermore%2C%5C+five%5C+1%5C-Butanol%5C+insensitive%5C+mutants%5C+have%5C+obtained%5C+and%5C+the%5C+mutant%5C+sites%5C+has%5C+identified.%5C+Under%5C+the%5C+same%5C+concentration%5C+1%5C-Butanol%5C+stress%2C%5C+the%5C+five%5C+mutants%5C+are%5C+in%5C+better%5C+condition%5C+no%5C+matter%5C+physical%5C+and%5C+chemical%5C+level%5C+or%5C+cellular%5C+levels%5C+compared%5C+to%5C+wild%5C-type%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+thaliana.%5C+It%5C+is%5C+believed%5C+that%5C+the%5C+five%5C+mutants%5C+definitely%5C+provide%5C+direct%5C+evidence%5C+for%5C+us%5C+to%5C+uncover%5C+the%5C+mechanism%5C+of%5C+the%5C+toxicity%5C+of%5C+alcohols%5C+to%5C+plants.%5C+2.%5C+The%5C+change%5C+pattern%5C+of%5C+the%5C+membrane%5C+lipid%5C+molecules%5C+responding%5C+to%5C+the%5C+phytohormones%5C-promoted%5C+detached%5C+Arabidopsis%5C+leaves%5C+and%5C+the%5C+role%5C+of%5C+PLD%CE%B11%5C+and%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C+in%5C+regulating%5C+this%5C+process.%5C+The%5C+reason%5C+for%5C+PLD%CE%B11%5C-antisense%5C+mutant%5C+and%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C-knockout%5C+mutant%5C+delaying%5C+phytohormone%5C-promoted%5C+senescence%5C+may%5C+be%5C+PLD%CE%B11%5C+and%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C+are%5C+response%5C+to%5C+the%5C+ABA%5C+and%5C+ethylene%5C+sinaling%5C%3B%5C+PLD%CE%B11%5C-or%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C-derived%5C+PA%5C+contributes%5C+to%5C+reactive%5C+oxygen%5C+species%5C+%5C%28ROS%5C%29%5C+accumulation%5C%3B%5C+PLD%CE%B11%5C-antisense%5C+mutant%5C+and%5C+PLD%CE%B4%5C-knockout%5C+mutant%5C+have%5C+higher%5C+level%5C+of%5C+indole%5C-3%5C-acrtic%5C+acid%5C+%5C%28IAA%5C%29%5C+and%5C+zeatin%5C+riboside%5C+%5C%28ZR%5C%29%5C+level%5C+but%5C+lower%5C+level%5C+of%5C+abscisic%5C+acid%5C+%5C%28ABA%5C%29%5C+and%5C+jasmonic%5C+acid%5C+%5C%28JA%5C%29%5C+compared%5C+to%5C+wild%5C-type%5C+Col%5C+and%5C+wild%5C-type%5C+WS%2C%5C+respectively%2C%5C+which%5C+is%5C+favorable%5C+to%5C+retard%5C+the%5C+phytohormone%5C-promoted%5C+detached%5C+leaves%5C+senescence.%5C+3.%5C+Application%5C+tert%5C-butanol%5C+increase%5C+the%5C+efficiency%5C+of%5C+phosphate%5C+utilization%5C+and%5C+ab

search for new and efficient antitumor drugs from natural products, especially plants, has been the focus of scholars and researchers all over the world. The dissertation composed of four chapters and focused on antitumor drugs of plant origin and plant cyclopeptides research. The first chapter was about the establishment and application of cancer cell line assay. In total, 8835 compounds and 3638 extracts were tested against seven cell lines and the results indicated that 459 compounds and 189 extracts showed cytotoxicities. Based on these results, the plant Rubia yunnanensis (Franch.) Diels, which showed potential activity and has been used as a common herb to treat cancer, was selected for the further study. Chapter two, focused on the studies on chemistry, bioactivities, antitumor mechanism and preliminary pre-clinical research of cyclopeptides in R. yunnanensis. A phytochemical investigation on cyclopeptides constituents from this plant led to the isolation of 18 cyclopeptides, including 2 new ones with novel skeletons and 7 other new ones. The possible biosynthetic pathways for four types of rubiaceae-type cyclopeptides were also proposed. The 18 cyclopeptides were evaluated for their cyctotoxicities against 11 cancer cell lines and the result indicated that these cyclopeptides exhibited strong activities and RA-V showed best activities with IC50 values of approximately 10 nM. Moreover, RA-V was also found to exhibit anti I-type herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) activity for the first time. Thereafter, we carried out research on the antitumor mechanism of RA-V and its glycoside RA-XII. The results showed that they significantly inhibited TNF-α induced NF-κB signaling pathway. The phosphorylation of IκBα was down-regulated by them, which could inhibit the translocation of P65 and NO production in LPS and IFN-γ-induced RAW 264.7 murine macrophages. This is the first time it is being reported that RA-V and RA-XII are new natural NF-κB pathway inhibitors. Furthermore, from the anti-angiogenesis study, RA-V showed strong anti-proliferative activities in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC). Further study on its mechanism indicated that RA-V could induce G2/M phase arrest and cell apoptosis by down-regulation of cell cycle regulatory protein and gene expression in extracellular signal-regulated kinase ½ (Erk ½) phosphorylation pathway. Moreover, RA-V could inhibit migration and tube formation of HUVEC and HMEC by inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase. The third chapter was about the studies on other chemical constituents of R. yunnanensis and their bioactivities. A phytochemical assessment of this plant resulted in the isolation of 68 compounds, including 11 new arborinane-type triterpenoids and 4 new quinones. Subsequently, 61 of them were evaluated for their cytotoxicities against three cancer cell lines, anti-Staphylococcus aureus and anti-Candida albicans activities. The results indicated that for the first time the arborinane-type triterpenoids exhibited cytotoxicities and also rubiarbonol G and 2-methyl-1,3,6-trihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone induced cell apoptosis in Hela cell line. The fourth chapter was a review on chemical constituents and bioactivities of genus Rubia plants. All the above-mentioned research work had laid a good foundation for quality control and multi-component, multi-target drug R&D of R. yunnanensis.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+search%5C+for%5C+new%5C+and%5C+efficient%5C+antitumor%5C+drugs%5C+from%5C+natural%5C+products%2C%5C+especially%5C+plants%2C%5C+has%5C+been%5C+the%5C+focus%5C+of%5C+scholars%5C+and%5C+researchers%5C+all%5C+over%5C+the%5C+world.%5C+The%5C+dissertation%5C+composed%5C+of%5C+four%5C+chapters%5C+and%5C+focused%5C+on%5C+antitumor%5C+drugs%5C+of%5C+plant%5C+origin%5C+and%5C+plant%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+research.%5C+The%5C+first%5C+chapter%5C+was%5C+about%5C+the%5C+establishment%5C+and%5C+application%5C+of%5C+cancer%5C+cell%5C+line%5C+assay.%5C+In%5C+total%2C%5C+8835%5C+compounds%5C+and%5C+3638%5C+extracts%5C+were%5C+tested%5C+against%5C+seven%5C+cell%5C+lines%5C+and%5C+the%5C+results%5C+indicated%5C+that%5C+459%5C+compounds%5C+and%5C+189%5C+extracts%5C+showed%5C+cytotoxicities.%5C+Based%5C+on%5C+these%5C+results%2C%5C+the%5C+plant%5C+Rubia%5C+yunnanensis%5C+%5C%28Franch.%5C%29%5C+Diels%2C%5C+which%5C+showed%5C+potential%5C+activity%5C+and%5C+has%5C+been%5C+used%5C+as%5C+a%5C+common%5C+herb%5C+to%5C+treat%5C+cancer%2C%5C+was%5C+selected%5C+for%5C+the%5C+further%5C+study.%5C+Chapter%5C+two%2C%5C+focused%5C+on%5C+the%5C+studies%5C+on%5C+chemistry%2C%5C+bioactivities%2C%5C+antitumor%5C+mechanism%5C+and%5C+preliminary%5C+pre%5C-clinical%5C+research%5C+of%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+in%5C+R.%5C+yunnanensis.%5C+A%5C+phytochemical%5C+investigation%5C+on%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+constituents%5C+from%5C+this%5C+plant%5C+led%5C+to%5C+the%5C+isolation%5C+of%5C+18%5C+cyclopeptides%2C%5C+including%5C+2%5C+new%5C+ones%5C+with%5C+novel%5C+skeletons%5C+and%5C+7%5C+other%5C+new%5C+ones.%5C+The%5C+possible%5C+biosynthetic%5C+pathways%5C+for%5C+four%5C+types%5C+of%5C+rubiaceae%5C-type%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+were%5C+also%5C+proposed.%5C+The%5C+18%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+were%5C+evaluated%5C+for%5C+their%5C+cyctotoxicities%5C+against%5C+11%5C+cancer%5C+cell%5C+lines%5C+and%5C+the%5C+result%5C+indicated%5C+that%5C+these%5C+cyclopeptides%5C+exhibited%5C+strong%5C+activities%5C+and%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+showed%5C+best%5C+activities%5C+with%5C+IC50%5C+values%5C+of%5C+approximately%5C+10%5C+nM.%5C+Moreover%2C%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+was%5C+also%5C+found%5C+to%5C+exhibit%5C+anti%5C+I%5C-type%5C+herpes%5C+simplex%5C+virus%5C+%5C%28HSV%5C-1%5C%29%5C+activity%5C+for%5C+the%5C+first%5C+time.%5C+Thereafter%2C%5C+we%5C+carried%5C+out%5C+research%5C+on%5C+the%5C+antitumor%5C+mechanism%5C+of%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+and%5C+its%5C+glycoside%5C+RA%5C-XII.%5C+The%5C+results%5C+showed%5C+that%5C+they%5C+significantly%5C+inhibited%5C+TNF%5C-%CE%B1%5C+induced%5C+NF%5C-%CE%BAB%5C+signaling%5C+pathway.%5C+The%5C+phosphorylation%5C+of%5C+I%CE%BAB%CE%B1%5C+was%5C+down%5C-regulated%5C+by%5C+them%2C%5C+which%5C+could%5C+inhibit%5C+the%5C+translocation%5C+of%5C+P65%5C+and%5C+NO%5C+production%5C+in%5C+LPS%5C+and%5C+IFN%5C-%CE%B3%5C-induced%5C+RAW%5C+264.7%5C+murine%5C+macrophages.%5C+This%5C+is%5C+the%5C+first%5C+time%5C+it%5C+is%5C+being%5C+reported%5C+that%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+and%5C+RA%5C-XII%5C+are%5C+new%5C+natural%5C+NF%5C-%CE%BAB%5C+pathway%5C+inhibitors.%5C+Furthermore%2C%5C+from%5C+the%5C+anti%5C-angiogenesis%5C+study%2C%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+showed%5C+strong%5C+anti%5C-proliferative%5C+activities%5C+in%5C+human%5C+umbilical%5C+vein%5C+endothelial%5C+cells%5C+%5C%28HUVEC%5C%29%5C+and%5C+human%5C+microvascular%5C+endothelial%5C+cells%5C+%5C%28HMEC%5C%29.%5C+Further%5C+study%5C+on%5C+its%5C+mechanism%5C+indicated%5C+that%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+could%5C+induce%5C+G2%5C%2FM%5C+phase%5C+arrest%5C+and%5C+cell%5C+apoptosis%5C+by%5C+down%5C-regulation%5C+of%5C+cell%5C+cycle%5C+regulatory%5C+protein%5C+and%5C+gene%5C+expression%5C+in%5C+extracellular%5C+signal%5C-regulated%5C+kinase%5C+%C2%BD%5C+%5C%28Erk%5C+%C2%BD%5C%29%5C+phosphorylation%5C+pathway.%5C+Moreover%2C%5C+RA%5C-V%5C+could%5C+inhibit%5C+migration%5C+and%5C+tube%5C+formation%5C+of%5C+HUVEC%5C+and%5C+HMEC%5C+by%5C+inhibition%5C+of%5C+matrix%5C+metalloproteinase.%5C+The%5C+third%5C+chapter%5C+was%5C+about%5C+the%5C+studies%5C+on%5C+other%5C+chemical%5C+constituents%5C+of%5C+R.%5C+yunnanensis%5C+and%5C+their%5C+bioactivities.%5C+A%5C+phytochemical%5C+assessment%5C+of%5C+this%5C+plant%5C+resulted%5C+in%5C+the%5C+isolation%5C+of%5C+68%5C+compounds%2C%5C+including%5C+11%5C+new%5C+arborinane%5C-type%5C+triterpenoids%5C+and%5C+4%5C+new%5C+quinones.%5C+Subsequently%2C%5C+61%5C+of%5C+them%5C+were%5C+evaluated%5C+for%5C+their%5C+cytotoxicities%5C+against%5C+three%5C+cancer%5C+cell%5C+lines%2C%5C+anti%5C-Staphylococcus%5C+aureus%5C+and%5C+anti%5C-Candida%5C+albicans%5C+activities.%5C+The%5C+results%5C+indicated%5C+that%5C+for%5C+the%5C+first%5C+time%5C+the%5C+arborinane%5C-type%5C+triterpenoids%5C+exhibited%5C+cytotoxicities%5C+and%5C+also%5C+rubiarbonol%5C+G%5C+and%5C+2%5C-methyl%5C-1%2C3%2C6%5C-trihydroxy%5C-9%2C10%5C-anthraquinone%5C+induced%5C+cell%5C+apoptosis%5C+in%5C+Hela%5C

thesis has investagated on alkaloids in the fruits of three Daphniphyllum species Daphniphyllum longeracemosum, D. oldhami, and D. himalense, along with chemical compounds from leaves of Trichilia connaroides and Mitrephora maingayi. 83 compounds in total were acquired from those five plants and their structures were identified by organic spetra (NMR, MS, IR.), including two novel Daphniphyllum alkaloids, another three new ones, twelve new limonoids, a new steroids and a new acetogenin. Seventeen Daphniphyllum alkaloids were acquiered from Daphniphyllum longeracemosum, including two novel ones (Daphenylline and Longeramine) and another new alkaloid N-oxydaphnilongeranin C. Eighteen alkaloids were isolated from D. oldhamii, including two new alkaloids Daphnoldines A and B. Eleven alkaloids were afforded from D. himalense fruits.From Trichilia connaroides leaves, 22 compounds were afforded, including 12 new limonoids and a new steroid. 15 compounds were isolated from Mitrephora maingayi twigs and leaves, including a new annonaceous acetogenin.Furthermore, biological functions of Daphniphyllum alkaloids were initially seeked after based on their relation to squalene metabolism pathway. The alkaloids Longistylumphylline B and Paxdaphnine B were detected inhibtion against nAchR (a target protein for pesticide) from Drosophila. Furthermore, a phragmalin-type limonoid 30-acetyltrichagmalin F showed a moderate anti-PAF activity.In addition, squalene metabolism pathway along with its natual inhibitor and analogs were reviewed. The pathway was prospected as potential targets for antihyperlipoproteinemic drugs, pesticide, antifeedant or antifungal drugs.","jscount":"1","jsurl":"/simple-search?field1=all&field=eperson.unique.id&advanced=false&fq=dc.type_filter%3A%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87&query1=Pathway&&fq=dc.project.title_filter%3AThe%5C+thesis%5C+has%5C+investagated%5C+on%5C+alkaloids%5C+in%5C+the%5C+fruits%5C+of%5C+three%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+species%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+longeracemosum%2C%5C+D.%5C+oldhami%2C%5C+and%5C+D.%5C+himalense%2C%5C+along%5C+with%5C+chemical%5C+compounds%5C+from%5C+leaves%5C+of%5C+Trichilia%5C+connaroides%5C+and%5C+Mitrephora%5C+maingayi.%5C+83%5C+compounds%5C+in%5C+total%5C+were%5C+acquired%5C+from%5C+those%5C+five%5C+plants%5C+and%5C+their%5C+structures%5C+were%5C+identified%5C+by%5C+organic%5C+spetra%5C+%5C%28NMR%2C%5C+MS%2C%5C+IR.%5C%29%2C%5C+including%5C+two%5C+novel%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+alkaloids%2C%5C+another%5C+three%5C+new%5C+ones%2C%5C+twelve%5C+new%5C+limonoids%2C%5C+a%5C+new%5C+steroids%5C+and%5C+a%5C+new%5C+acetogenin.%5C+Seventeen%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+alkaloids%5C+were%5C+acquiered%5C+from%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+longeracemosum%2C%5C+including%5C+two%5C+novel%5C+ones%5C+%5C%28Daphenylline%5C+and%5C+Longeramine%5C%29%5C+and%5C+another%5C+new%5C+alkaloid%5C+N%5C-oxydaphnilongeranin%5C+C.%5C+Eighteen%5C+alkaloids%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+D.%5C+oldhamii%2C%5C+including%5C+two%5C+new%5C+alkaloids%5C+Daphnoldines%5C+A%5C+and%5C+B.%5C+Eleven%5C+alkaloids%5C+were%5C+afforded%5C+from%5C+D.%5C+himalense%5C+fruits.From%5C+Trichilia%5C+connaroides%5C+leaves%2C%5C+22%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+afforded%2C%5C+including%5C+12%5C+new%5C+limonoids%5C+and%5C+a%5C+new%5C+steroid.%5C+15%5C+compounds%5C+were%5C+isolated%5C+from%5C+Mitrephora%5C+maingayi%5C+twigs%5C+and%5C+leaves%2C%5C+including%5C+a%5C+new%5C+annonaceous%5C+acetogenin.Furthermore%2C%5C+biological%5C+functions%5C+of%5C+Daphniphyllum%5C+alkaloids%5C+were%5C+initially%5C+seeked%5C+after%5C+based%5C+on%5C+their%5C+relation%5C+to%5C+squalene%5C+metabolism%5C+pathway.%5C+The%5C+alkaloids%5C+Longistylumphylline%5C+B%5C+and%5C+Paxdaphnine%5C+B%5C+were%5C+detected%5C+inhibtion%5C+against%5C+nAchR%5C+%5C%28a%5C+target%5C+protein%5C+for%5C+pesticide%5C%29%5C+from%5C+Drosophila.%5C+Furthermore%2C%5C+a%5C+phragmalin%5C-type%5C+limonoid%5C+30%5C-acetyltrichagmalin%5C+F%5C+showed%5C+a%5C+moderate%5C+anti%5C-PAF%5C+activity.In%5C+addition%2C%5C+squalene%5C+metabolism%5C+pathway%5C+along%5C+with%5C+its%5C+natual%5C+inhibitor%5C+and%5C+analogs%5C+were%5C+reviewed.%5C+The%5C+pathway%5C+was%5C+prospected%5C+as%5C+potential%5C+targets%5C+for%5C+antihyperlipoproteinemic%5C+drugs%2C%5C+pesticide%2C%5C+antifeedant%5C+or%5C+antifungal%5C+drugs."},{"jsname":"lastIndexed","jscount":"2024-06-13"}],"资助项目","dc.project.title_filter")'>
