  • Bleeding heart (Dicentra spectabilis L. Lemaire) is one of the most valuable wild flower in Korea. This work was conducted for the mass production of somatic embryos through suspension culture and more effective plant regeneration system in Dicentra spectabilis. High-frequency embryogenic callus proliferation was achieved in SH liquid medium supplemented with 1 mg/L 2,4-D. Half-strength SH medium was suitable concentration for somatic embryo induction and germination. About 5,000 embryos were produced per 250$m\ell$ flask after 4 weeks of culture. Germination rate of somatic embryos was decreased when GA$_3$ was added in medium. The plantlets showed a 58% survival rate when transferred to pots after 1 month of culture. The results indicate that micropropagation procedure via somatic embryogenesis can be applied for an efficient mass propagation of Dicentra spectabilis.

  • This study explores the value of the Dicentra spectabilis community as a nature reserve in provincial forests at San 1-2, Daea-ri, Dongsang-myeon, Wanju-gun, Jellabuk-do, also known as Gamakgol, while defining the appropriateness of its living environment and eventually providing basic information to protect this area. For these reasons, we investigated 'morphological and biological features of Dicentra spectabilis' and the 'present situation and problems of designing a herbaceous nature reserve in Korea.' Furthermore, we researched and analyzed the solar, soil and vegetation condition here through a field study in order to comprehend its nature reserve value. The result is as follows. According to the analytic result for information on the domestic wild Dicentra spectabilis community, it is evenly spread throughout mountainous areas, and there is one particularly outstanding in size in Wanju Gamakgol. Upon the findings from literature and the field study about its dispersion, Gamakgol has been discovered as an ideal district for Dicentra spectabilis since it meets all the conditions this plant requires to grow vigorously, such as a quasi-high altitude and rich precipitation during its period of active growth duration in May. Dicentra spectabilis grows in rocky soil ranging from 300~375m above sea level, 344.5m on average, towards the north, northwest and dominantly in the northeast. The mean inclination degree is $19.5^{\circ}$. Also, upon findings from analyzing solar conditions, the average light intensity during its growth duration, from Apr. to Aug., is 30,810lux on average and it tends to increase, as it gets closer to the end. This plant requires around 14,000~18,000lux while growing, but once bloomed, fruits develop regardless of the degree of brightness. The soil pH has shown a slight difference between the topsoil, at 5.2~6.1, and subsoil, at 5.2~6.2. Its mean pH is 5.54 for topsoil and 5.58 for subsoil. These results are very typical for Dicentra spectabilis to grow in, and other comparative areas also present similar conditions. Given the facts, the character of the soil in Gamakgol has been evaluated to have high stability. Analysis of its vegetation environment shows a wide variation of taxa numbering from 13 to 52 depending on area. The total number of taxa is 126 and they are a homogenous group while showing a variety of species as well. The Dicentra spectabilis community in the Daea-ri Arboretum is an herbaceous community consisting of dominantly Dicentra spectabilis, Cardamine leucantha, Boehmeria tricuspi and Impatiens textori while having many differential species such as Impatiens textori, Pueraria thunbergiana, Rubus crataegifolius vs Staphylea bumalda, Securinega suffruticosa, and Actinidia polygama. It suggests that it is a typical subcolony divided by topographic features and soil humidity. Considering the above results on a comprehensive level, this area is an excellent habitat for wild Dicentra spectabilis providing beautiful viewing enjoyment. Additionally, it is the largest wild colony of Dicentra spectabilis in Korea whose climate, topography, soil conditions and vegetation environment can secure sustainability as a wild habitat of Dicentra spectabilis. Therefore, We have determined that the Gamakgol community should be re-examined as natural asset owing to its established habitat conditions and sustainability.

  • UV irradiation on a skin brings about the qualitative and quantitative alterations of the extracellular matrix. Repeated-UV irradiation suppressed the synthesis of collagen and activated the expression of the matrix metalloprotease (MMP). In this paper, on the purpose of development of novel anti-aging agents from natural sources, effects of several natural products on in vitro MMP-1 activity and UVA induced MMP-1 synthesis in human dermal fibroblast (HDF) culture were studied. We measured MMP-1 activities by fluorescence assay using gelatin as substrates. As a result, the extract of Dicentra spectabilis, and flower buds of Tussilago farfara showed strong inhibitory effect. Among them, the extract of flower buds of Tussilago fartara and Dicentra spectabilis inhibited MMP-1 activity by 92% and 87% at 0.05% (w/v). And UVA induced MMP-1 expression were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and gelatin-based zymography in HDF culture. The extract of flower buds of Tussilago farfara and Dicentra spectabilis suppressed the UVA induced expression of MMP-1 by similar level of Vitamin C 200$\mu$M at 0.1% (w/v). These results suggest that the extract of Dicentra spectabilis, and flower buds of Tussilago farfara effectively prevent skin from the UV-induced photoaging. So the extracts are thought to have potential as effective raw materials for anti-aging cosmetics.

  • Column chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the roots of Dicentra spectabilis yielded fourteen compounds, menisdaurin (1), menisdaurilide (2), trans-N-p-coumaroyltyramine (3), trans-N-p-feruloyltyramine (4), 4-O-feruloylquinicacid (5), chlorogenic acid (6), 3-O-feruloylquinicacid (7), ferulic acid (8), protopine (9), Kaempferol 3,7-di-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranoside (10), kaempferol 3-O-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranosyl-7-O-${\alpha}-{\text\tiny{L}}$-rhamnopyranoside (11), ${\alpha}-rhamnoisorobin$ (12), astragalin (13), and nicotiflorin (14). Their structures were determined on the basis of NMR spectroscopic data. Among them, compound 1, 3-8, and 10-14 isolated from this plant were reported for the first time. The isolated compounds (1-14) were tested for nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activity on lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Compound 3, 4 and 12 significantly inhibited NO production. Moreover, Compound 3 suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokines ($TNF-{\alpha}$, $IL-1{\beta}$ and IL-6) in a dose- dependent manner. These data suggest that compound 3 possess anti-inflammatory activity and might be useful natural materials for development of anti-inflammatory agent.

  • This study was carried out to obtain the basic informations on the characteristics of gametophytes formation and embryo developement in Dicentra spectabilis. Microspore mother cells developed from archesporial cells, start meiosis when flower bud length reaches around 1 mm, formed tetrahedral type tetrad. The 4 microspores were separated. They were developed to male gametophytes, respectively. Megaspore mother cells were observed when flower bud length was $4{\sim}5\;mm$. The developemental type of megaspore was polygonum and embryo sac was amphitropous. Three large and distinctive antipodals did not degenerated and remained after embryo sac was developed. When the male and female gametophytes was fully developed, the length of stamen and style was very similar or stamen was shorter about 0.5 mm than that of style. This result indicates that self-fertilization can be occurred in this species. After fertilization, developing zygotic embryos showed various stages of development from globular to cotyledonary embryos, and zygotic embryo in seed scattering time seemed to have an early cotyledonary stage.

  • This experiment was performed to investigate the effects of $GA_3(100mg{\cdot}L^{-1})$, moist-chilling ($3^{\circ}C$) storage (MCS) and removal of funiculus on the germination of Dicentra spectabilis. Seeds which were not treated by $GA_3$ did not germinate in spite of MCS for 90 days. However, $GA_3$ treatment accelerated the seed germination regardless of the duration of MCS. In the case of the funiculus removal, the promoting effect of $GA_3$ showed a tendency to decrease. The germination rate and days to germination were accelerated and shortened respectively with increasing the days of MCS after $GA_3$ treatment. As results, $GA_3$ was effective on the seed germination of Dicentra spectabilis and MCS was synergistic on the effect of $GA_3$.
