RESUMEN
Far-red light exerts an important regulatory influence on plant growth and development. However, the mechanisms underlying far-red light regulation of morphogenesis and photosynthetic characteristics in blueberry plantlets in vitro have remained elusive. Here, physiological and transcriptomic analyses were conducted on blueberry plantlets in vitro supplemented with far-red light. The results indicated that supplementation with low far-red light, such as 6 µmol m-2 s-1 and 14 µmol m-2 s-1 far-red (6FR and 14FR) light treatments, significantly increased proliferation-related indicators, including shoot length, shoot number, gibberellin A3, and trans-zeatin riboside content. It was found that 6FR and 14 FR significantly reduced chlorophyll content in blueberry plantlets but enhanced electron transport rates. Weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) showed the enrichment of iron ion-related genes in modules associated with photosynthesis. Genes such as NAC, ABCG11, GASA1, and Erf74 were significantly enriched within the proliferation-related module. Taken together, we conclude that low far-red light can promote the proliferative capacity of blueberry plantlets in vitro by affecting hormone pathways and the formation of secondary cell walls, concurrently regulating chlorophyll content and iron ion homeostasis to affect photosynthetic capacity.

Nineteen compounds isolated from Ranunculus sieboldii and Ranunculus sceleratus were tested for inhibitory effects on hepatitis B virus (HBV) and Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1). The results showed that apigenin 4'- O- alpha-rhamnopyranoside, apigenin 7- O- beta-glucopyranosyl-4'- O- alpha-rhamnopyranoside, tricin 7- O- beta-glucopyranoside, tricin, and isoscopoletin possessed inhibitory activity against HBV replication. Protocatechuyl aldehyde exhibited an inhibiting activity on HSV-1 replication. It is therefore suggested that further investigations on these bioactive compounds might be needed to discover and develop new antiviral agents.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a RP-HPLC method for the determination of amlodipine after metabolism by cytochrome P450 cDNA-expressed cells. METHODS: The determination was performed on a C(18) reversed phase column with a mobile phase composed of acetonitrile phosphates buffer (45:55, v/v, pH 4.5) with UV detection (lambda250nm). Propranolol was used as the internal standard. RESULT: The standard curve was linear over the concentration range of 0.2 - 30.0 microg/ml (r=0.9993), and the limits of determination was 20 ng/ml (S/N >or=3), the limits of quantity was 0.2 microg/ml (recovery 104.0%, RSD 11.4%, n=5). The recovery for this assay was (98.2+/-2.4)%, precision for inter-assay and intra-assay was <10 % and 6 %, respectively. CONCLUSION: The HPLC method established is simple, accurate and suitable for the determination of amlodipine in cytochrome p450 cDNA-expressed cells.
