Abstract

We investigated the levels of glutathione (GSH) and its oxidized form (GSSG) in 24 cell lines derived from various plant species to understand the antioxidative mechanism in plant cell cultures. The total glutathione content was 98$\pm$27 $\mu$g/g cell fresh wt, showing a slight difference in plant species. The average contort of GSH and GSSG was 72$\pm$20 and 26$\pm$10 $\mu$g/g cell fresh wt, respectively. The average GSH content in plant cell lines occupies approximately 73% in total glutathione. During the suspension cultures of Scutellaria baicalensis, one of the plant species we tested, the GSH content decreased in proportion to the cell growth during the exponential growth stage, showing the low level at the stationary growth stage (84 $\mu$g/g cell fresh wt), whereas the GSSG content increased to the stationary growth stage (31 $\mu$g/g cell fresh wt). The results suggested that the ratio of GSH and GSSG should be involved in the cell growth and antioxidative mechanism in cultured cells.

식물배양세포의 항산화기구를 이해하기 위하여 다양한 유도조건에서 확립된 24종의 세포주를 대상으로 환원형 (GSH)과 산화형 (GSSG)의 glutathione 함량을 조사하였다. 배양세포의 전체 glutathione 함량 ($\mu$g/g cell fresh wt)은 98$\pm$27로 식물종에 따라 큰 차이가 없었다. 배양세포의 환원형 GSH과 산화형 GSSG의 평균함량 ($\mu$g/g fr wt)은 각각 72$\pm$20와 26$\pm$10을 나타내었다. 배양세포의 전체 glutathione 중에서 평균 환원형 GSH는 약 73%를 차지하였다. 황금 (Scutellaria baicalensis)배양세포의 현탁배양에 따른 GSH 함량 ($\mu$g/g cell fresh wt)은 계대배양부터 대수증식기까지는 계속하여 감소하여 세포생장 정지기인 배양후 13일에는 84까지 감소한 후 다시 증가하였다가 배양후기에는 크게 감소하였다. 한편 GSSG의 함량 ($\mu$g/g cell fresh wt)은 오히려 대수증식기까지는 증가하여 배양후 13일에는 31을 나타내었고 배양후기인 25일에는 48로 오히려 산화형 GSSG의 비율이 높았다. 이러한 결과는 GSH와 GSSG의 비율이 배양세포의 생장과 항산화기구에 주요하게 관여하고 있음을 시사한다.
