Genome-Wide Survey Indicates Diverse Physiological Roles of Dendrobium officinale Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinase Genes.

ABSTRACT: Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are crucial calcium ions (Ca2+) sensors in plants with important roles in signal transduction, plant growth, development, and stress responses. Here, we identified 24 genes encoding CDPKs in Dendrobium officinale using genome-wide analysis. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that these genes formed four groups, with similar structures in the same group. The gene expression patterns following hormone treatments and yeast two-hybrid of homologous CDPK gene pairs with Rbohs showed differences, indicating functional divergence between homologous genes. In addition, the rapid accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and stomatal closure was observed in response to salicylic acid (SA)/jasmonic acid (JA) stress. Our data showed that CDPK9-2 and CDPK20-4 interacted with Rboh D and Rboh H, respectively, and were implicated in the generation of H2O2 and regulation of the stomatal aperture in response to salicylic acid/jasmonic acid treatment. We believe these results can provide a foundation for the functional divergence of homologous genes in D. officinale.

Project description:Introduction: Numerous studies have demonstrated that the stems of D. officinale have the effect of lowering blood glucose, but the leaves of D. officinale have seldom been investigated. In this study, we mainly studied the hypoglycemic effect and mechanism of D. officinale leaves. Methods: Initially in vivo, male C57BL/6 mice were administered either standard feed (10 kcal% fat) or high-fat feed (60 kcal% fat) along with either normal drinking water or drinking water containing 5 g/L water extract of D. officinale leaves (EDL) for 16 weeks, and changes in body weight, food intake, blood glucose, etc., were monitored weekly. Next in vitro, C2C12 myofiber precursor cells which were induced to differentiate into myofibroblasts and cultured with EDL to detect the expression of insulin signaling pathway related proteins. HEPA cells were also cultured with EDL to detect the expression of hepatic gluconeogenesis or hepatic glycogen synthesis related proteins. Eventually after separating the components from EDL by ethanol and 3 kDa ultrafiltration centrifuge tube, we conducted animal experiments using the ethanol-soluble fraction of EDL (ESFE), ethanol-insoluble fraction of EDL (EIFE), ESFE with a molecular weight of >3 kDa (>3 kDa ESFE), and ESFE with a molecular weight of <3 kDa (<3 kDa ESFE) for intensive study. Results: The results in vivo revealed that the mice fed the high-fat diet exhibited significantly decreased blood glucose levels and significantly increased glucose tolerance after the EDL treatment, whereas the mice fed the low-fat diet did not. The results in vitro showed that EDL activated the expression of protein kinase B (AKT), the phosphorylation of AKT, and the expression of downstream GSK3β in the insulin signaling pathway. EDL treatment of HEPA cells confirmed that EDL did not affect hepatic gluconeogenesis or hepatic glycogen synthesis. In the experiment of studying the composition of EDL, we found that the >3 kDa ESFE displayed the effect of lowering blood glucose. In summary, the effect of EDL in lowering blood glucose may bethanole achieved by activating the insulin signaling pathway to increase insulin sensitivity, and the main functional substance was contained within the >3 kDa ESFE. Discussion: The findings of this study represent a reference point for further exploration of the hypoglycemic effects of D. officinale leaves and may assist in both the identification of new molecular mechanisms to improve insulin sensitivity and the isolation of monomeric substances that lower blood glucose. Furthermore, the obtained results may provide a theoretical basis for the development of hypoglycemic drugs with D. officinale leaves as the main component.

Project description:BackgroundDendrobium, one of the largest genera in Orchidaceae, is popular not only for its aesthetic appeal but for its significant medicinal value. Growth-regulating factors (GRFs) play an essential role in plant growth and development. However, there is still a lack of information about the evolution and biological function analysis of the GRF gene family among Dendrobiumspecies.MethodsGrowth-regulating factors from Dendrobium officinale Kimura et Migo and Dendrobium chrysotoxum Lindl. were identified by HMMER and BLAST. Detailed bioinformatics analysis was conducted to explore the evolution and function of GRF gene family in D. officinale and D. chrysotoxum using genomic data, transcriptome data and qRT-PCR technology.ResultsHere, we evaluated the evolution of the GRF gene family based on the genome sequences of D. officinale and D. chrysotoxum. Inferred from phylogenetic trees, the GRF genes were classified into two clades, and each clade contains three subclades. Sequence comparison analysis revealed relatively conserved gene structures and motifs among members of the same subfamily, indicating a conserved evolution of GRF genes within Dendrobiumspecies. However, considering the distribution of orthologous DoGRFs and DcGRFs, and the differences in the number of GRFs among species, we suggest that the GRF gene family has undergone different evolutionary processes. A total of 361 cis-elements were detected, with 33, 141, and 187 related to plant growth and development, stress, and hormones, respectively. The tissue-specific expression of GRFs showed that DoGRF8 may have a significant function in the stem elongation of D. officinale. Moreover, four genes were up-regulated under Methyl-jasmonic acid/methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment, showing that DoGRFs and DcGRFs play a crucial role in stress response. These findings provide valuable information for further investigations into the evolution and function of GRF genes in D. officinale and D. chrysotoxum.
