effects of culture medium containing hormonal compositions on phenotypic and chromosomal variations of sugarbeet cultured tissues were examined. experiments were carried out in different nacl levels. cytological studies were conducted on calli originated from suspension culture. hypocotyl of seven day old seedlings of the two diploid lines were cultured in ms medium containing hormonal composit...

An efficient procedure for shoot regeneration was obtained by endosperm culture in Actinidia deliciosa cv. Hayward. Mature endosperm cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/l 2,4-D and 5 mg/l kinetin developed callus with 80% efficiency. Callus was transferred on MS medium containing different plant growth regulators (2,4-D, TDZ, IAA, NAA, BAP, kinetin, 2iP) for regeneration. There were si...

The purpose was to detect the effects of ovariectomy (OVX) on femoral fracture healing through different angiogenesis and HIF-1α expression in mice. Thirty-six young female C57 mice were randomized into two groups: OVX and age-matched intact control (CON). The femoral fracture was generated at 3 weeks after OVX or CON. At 2 or 4 weeks after fracture, the femoral fracture area was evaluated heal...

AIMS Excessive alcohol consumption is associated with fracture non-union. Canonical Wnt pathway signaling activity regulates normal fracture healing. We previously demonstrated that binge alcohol exposure modulates β-catenin levels in the fracture callus of mice. Here, we sought to determine whether exogenous enhancement β-catenin signaling activity could restore normal fracture healing to bing...

In the present study, the effect of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) on callus cultures of Artemisia annua were evaluated in terms of its growth, chlorophyll, carotenoid, protein, phenol and flavonoid content and possible genetic variations using ISSR and RAPD markers. Callus cultures grown on MS medium supplemented with three different 2,4-D concentration (1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 mg 2,4-D L MS ...

To investigate role of delayed operation to stimulate growth of strong external callus in high-energy fractures, and explore a new way for bone healing. Twenty adult dogs were employed, and randomly divided into four groups, including group A-D. The dogs underwent osteotomy by wire saw in middle of femur, electric coagulation damaged surrounding periosteum, forming a 1 cm defect. Group A were i...

An in vitro culture system leading to the formation of callus and plant regeneration, starting from nodal sections and shoot tips, was developed for Solidago chilensis (Asteraceae). The content of the gastroprotective diterpene solidagenone as well as the phenolics chlorogenic acid (CA) and rutin was determined either in rhizomes from wild growing plants and in callus and in in vitro regenerate...

Obtainment and characterization of the novel endosperm callus of Taxus chinensis Rehd. var. mairei are valuable for haploid breeding, genome, and functional genome in Taxus. Callus was obtained by hydropriming with sterile water for 3 days and suitable medium composition. The highest callus induction (70.89 %) and lower browning ratio (7.95 %) were obtained from Gamborg (B5) medium supplemented...

Unlike most animal cells, plant cells can easily regenerate new tissues from a wide variety of organs when properly cultured. The common elements that provide varied plant cells with their remarkable regeneration ability are still largely unknown. Here we describe the initial process of Arabidopsis in vitro regeneration, where a pluripotent cell mass termed callus is induced. We demonstrate tha...

BACKGROUND Chlorophytum borivilianum is an industrially valued medicinal crop. Propagation through seeds is not feasible because of low germination percentage and long dormancy period. Therefore, callus culture and plant regeneration can be an alternative to improve this crop production. Also, callus can serve as an alternative source of bioactive compounds. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect o...
