Pers. is known as a plant that has many special benefits such as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. The present study was carried out to perform a phytochemicals study and evaluate the antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity of the hydroethanolic extract of Kalanchoe pinnata (Lam.) Pers. leaves. After phytochemicals screening, the content of phenolic compounds, proanthocyanidol and flavonoids in the extract of this plant was determined spectrophotometrically. Antimicrobial activity was assessed using the micro-dilution technique on 96-well plates in liquid medium, combined with agar spreading. Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using the 1% carrageenan induced rat paw oedema model. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, triterpenes and sterols, phenols and flavonoids in the plant extract in varying proportions. The extract contained (0.049 ± 0.03 µg EAG/mg extract) total polyphenols, (0.215 ± 0.025 µg CE/mg extract) proanthocyanidins and (385.435 ± 0.0328 µg ER/mg ES) flavonoids. The hydroethanolic extract of the leaves of this plant inhibited the in vitro growth of the microbial strains studied to varying degrees. The MIC of the extract varied from 12.5 to 25 mg/mL and the BMC from 12.5 to 50 mg/mL. The plant did not show any activity on 1% carrageenan-induced rat paw edema.展开更多
Based on the published sequence of profilin2 promoter of Arabidopsis thaliana, a full-length promoter (1667 bp) was amplified by PCR.

The 5’ -end deletion fragments with length of 1380, 1153, 969 and 597 bp were then fused with gus (uid\) gene respectively. Constructed plant expression vectors were individually transferred into Kalan-choe laciniata and transgenic plants regenerated. GUS his-tochemical assay confirmed that the full-length promoter Pfnl.7 was vascular-specific. Deletion assays showed that profilin2 promoter could be divided into three parts. Deletion of fragment 1 ( -1667 -1380 bp) resulted in constitutive expression, suggesting that element(s) responsible for vascular-specific expression might exist in this region. Fragment 2 located at -1153 - -597 bp strongly inhibited gus gene expression. Fragment 3 ( -597 - -1 bp) is considered as a basic domain of profilin2.展开更多

The whole genomes of several CAM plants have been sequenced or are being sequenced. For effective genome characterization and genome editing of CAM plants,an efficient transformation system is essential. In this study, we developed an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol for Kalanchoe laxiflora, an obligate CAM plant,by optimizing several factors affecting the transformation efficiency. Agrobacterium strains AGL1, C58, EHA105,and GV3101 were all suitable for K. laxiflora transformation. Fifty-nine percent of the leaf explants yielded kanamycin-resistant and GUS-positive shoots. Polymerase chain reaction and quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) using gus A-, gus Plus-, npt II-and hpt-specific primers confirmed that the transgenes were integrated into K. laxiflora genome and expressed. This efficient transformation system will allow effective functional characterization of genes through over-or down-expression, knockout, or genome editing.展开更多
Miniature roses (Rosa sp.) and Kalanchoe blossfeldiana were grown at photon flux densities (PFD) ranging from 60 to 670 μmol·m-2·s-1 (associated with a temperature gradient from 20.0°C to 24.0°C [...Miniature roses (Rosa sp.) and Kalanchoe blossfeldiana were grown at photon flux densities (PFD) ranging from 60 to 670 μmol·m-2·s-1 (associated with a temperature gradient from 20.0°C to 24.0°C [TEMP1]) and from 50 to 370μmol·m-2-s-1 (associated with a temperature gradient from 22.5°C to 26.5°C [TEMP2]). The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse compartment at latitude 59° north in mid-winter. The daily photosynthetic active radiations (PAR) ranged from 4.3 to 48.2 and 3.6 to 26.6 mol·m-2·day-1 in the TEMP1 and TEMP2 treatments, respectively. Time until flowering in miniature roses decreased from about 50 to 35 days in the TEMP1 treatment and from 50 to 25 days in the TEMP2 treatment, when the PFD increased from 50 to 370μmol·m-2·s-1. In Kalanchoe time until flowering was decreased to the same extent (about 15 days) in both temperature treatments when PFD increased from 50 to 370 μmol·m-2·s-1. The number of flowers and the plant dry weight in miniature roses increased up to 300 – 400 μmol·m-2·s-1 PFD (21.6 - 28.8 mol·m-2 day-1 PAR), while flower stem fresh weight and plant dry weight in Kalanchoe increased up to 200 – 300 μmol·m-2·s-1 at TEMP1. Measurements of the diurnal carbon dioxide exchange rates (CER) in daylight in small plant stands of roses in summertime showed that CER was saturated at about 300 μmol·m-2·s-1 PFD at 370 μmol·mol-1 CO2 and at 400 – 500 μmol·m-2·s-1 PFD at 800 μmol·mol-1 CO2. For Kalanchoe similar results were obtained. Increasing the CO2 concentration from 370 to 800 μmol·mol-1 increased the CER in roses (48%) as well in Kalanchoe (69%). It was concluded that 15 to 20 mol·m-2·day-1 combined with about 24°C air temperature and high CO2 concentration will give a very good growth with lot of flowers within a short production time in miniature roses. For Kalanchoe 10 to 15 mol·m-2·day-1 combined with about 20°C and high CO2 produced a similar result.展开更多

Previous studies have shown the ameliorating effect of Kalanchoe integra leaf extract [KILE] on bronchial hyperesponsiveness and inflammation. Further, the stabilizing effect of Kalanchoe sp on mast cell degranulation, suggests that Kalanchoe species are suitable candidates for allergic asthma therapy. This study is designed to investigate the anti-asthmatic potential of KILE and monitor the accompanying histopathological and immunobiochemical changes that occur in an animal model of bronchial asthma using ovalbumin sensitized guinea pigs. Method: Thirty male guinea pigs were divided into five groups of six animals each. Bronchial asthma was simulated in guinea pigs using ovalbumin. Both low dose (300 mg/kg) and high dose extract (900 mg/kg) were administered daily for 42 days. Prednisolone (2.5 mg/kg) was the standard drug used. Results: Guinea pigs in all KILE treated groups maintained the integrity of their airway structures: bronchial folds and walls, alveoli, alveolar ducts and sacs. KILE and prednisolone caused a reduction in immune parameters (p 0.001), extent of bronchoconstriction, bronchial wall thickness and goblet cell accumulation in the sensitized guinea pigs. Conclusion: This study demonstrates the anti-asthmatic potential of KILE during prolonged administration by the oral route.展开更多
