[PMID: 38339212 PMCID: PMC10856001 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25031935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that exposure of plants to unfavorable environments leads to the accumulation of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). H2S interacts with the ROS-mediated oxidative stress response network at multiple levels. Therefore, it is essential to elucidate the mechanisms by which H2S and ROS interact. The molecular mechanism of action by H2S relies on the post-translational modification of the cysteine sulfur group (-SH), known as persulfidation. H2S cannot react directly with -SH, but it can react with oxidized cysteine residues, and this oxidation process is induced by H2O2. Evidently, ROS is involved in the signaling pathway of H2S and plays a significant role. In this review, we summarize the role of H2S-mediated post-translational modification mechanisms in oxidative stress responses. Moreover, the mechanism of interaction between H2S and ROS in the regulation of redox reactions is focused upon, and the positive cooperative role of H2S and ROS is elucidated. Subsequently, based on the existing evidence and clues, we propose some potential problems and new clues to be explored, which are crucial for the development of the crosstalk mechanism of H2S and ROS in plants.

BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 23:571. [PMID: 37978426 PMCID: PMC10655312 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-023-04555-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Astragalus grows mainly in drought areas. Cycloastragenol (CAG) is a tetracyclic triterpenoid allelochemical extracted from traditional Chinese medicine Astragalus root. Phospholipase C (PLC) and Gα-submit of the heterotrimeric G-protein (GPA1) are involved in many biotic or abiotic stresses. Nitric oxide (NO) is a crucial gas signal molecule in plants. RESULTS In this study, using the seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana (A. thaliana), the results showed that low concentrations of CAG induced stomatal closure, and high concentrations inhibited stomatal closure. 30 µmol·L-1 CAG significantly increased the relative expression levels of PLC1 and GPA1 and the activities of PLC and GTP hydrolysis. The stomatal aperture of plc1, gpa1, and plc1/gpa1 was higher than that of WT under CAG treatment. CAG increased the fluorescence intensity of NO in guard cells. Exogenous application of c-PTIO to WT significantly induced stomatal aperture under CAG treatment. CAG significantly increased the relative expression levels of NIA1 and NOA1. Mutants of noa1, nia1, and nia2 showed that NO production was mainly from NOA1 and NIA1 by CAG treatment. The fluorescence intensity of NO in guard cells of plc1, gpa1, and plc1/gpa1 was lower than WT, indicating that PLC1 and GPA1 were involved in the NO production in guard cells. There was no significant difference in the gene expression of PLC1 in WT, nia1, and noa1 under CAG treatment. The gene expression levels of NIA1 and NOA1 in plc1, gpa1, and plc1/gpa1 were significantly lower than WT, indicating that PLC1 and GPA1 were positively regulating NO production by regulating the expression of NIA1 and NOA1 under CAG treatment. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that the NO accumulation was essential to induce stomatal closure under CAG treatment, and GPA1 and PLC1 acted upstream of NO.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive molecules, generated by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidases encoded by respiratory burst oxidase homologs. The functions of the OsRbohs gene family in rice are diverse and poorly understood. OsRbohI was recently identified as a newly evolved gene in the rice OsRbohs gene family. However, the function of OsRbohI in regulating rice growth is not yet reported. In this study, our results indicate that knockout (KO) OsRbohI mutants showed significantly shorter shoot and primary roots, along with lower ROS content than the control lines, whereas the overexpression (OE) lines displayed contrasting results. Further experiments showed that the abnormal length of the shoot and root is mainly caused by altered cell size. These results indicate that OsRbohI regulates rice shoot and root growth through the ROS signal. More importantly, RNA-seq analysis and jasmonic acid (JA) treatment demonstrated that OsRbohI regulates rice growth via the JA synthesis and signaling pathways. Compared with the control, the results showed that the KO mutants were more sensitive to JA, whereas the OE lines were less sensitive to JA. Collectively, our results reveal a novel pathway in which OsRbohI regulates rice growth and development by affecting their ROS homeostasis through JA synthesis and signaling pathway.

Abstract
Cycloastragenol (CAG) is a tetra-cyclic triterpenoid allelochemical. It has been widely studied in animals but rarely in plants. Here, we reported that a model allelochemical CAG inhibited primary root elongation of Arabidopsis by reducing the sizes of both the meristem and elongation zones. Phospholipase Dδ(PLDδ), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and auxin affected this process. After treatment with CAG, the expression of PLDδ and the activity of the Phospholipase D(PLD) enzyme increased in WT. Mutants analysis demonstrated that PLDδ negatively regulated the primary root elongation by CAG treatment. CAG treatment stimulated the accumulation of H2O2 in roots. The production of H2O2 was derived from cell wall peroxidase. Mutants analysis showed that PLDδ positively regulated the production of H2O2 by CAG treatment. CAG also decreased auxin content in the root tip by affecting the expression of auxin synthesis-related genes. PLDδ was involved in the auxin reduction mediated by CAG, but H2O2 did not participate in this process. In conclusion, PLDδ, auxin, and H2O2 mediated the inhibition of primary root growth by CAG in Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Osmotic stress can occur due to some stresses such as salinity and drought, threatening plant survival. To investigate the mechanism governing the pistachio response to this stress, the biochemical alterations and protein profile of PEG-treated plants was monitored. Also, we selected two differentially abundant proteins to validate via Real-Time PCR. Biochemical results displayed that in treated plants, proline and phenolic content was elevated, photosynthetic pigments except carotenoid decreased and MDA concentration were not altered. Our findings identified a number of proteins using 2DE-MS, involved in mitigating osmotic stress in pistachio. A total of 180 protein spots were identified, of which 25 spots were altered in response to osmotic stress. Four spots that had photosynthetic activities were down-regulated, and the remaining spots were up-regulated. The biological functional analysis of protein spots exhibited that most of them are associated with the photosynthesis and metabolism (36%) followed by stress response (24%). Results of Real-Time PCR indicated that two of the representative genes illustrated a positive correlation among transcript level and protein expression and had a similar trend in regulation of gene and protein. Osmotic stress set changes in the proteins associated with photosynthesis and stress tolerance, proteins associated with the cell wall, changes in the expression of proteins involved in DNA and RNA processing occur. Findings of this research will introduce possible proteins and pathways that contribute to osmotic stress and can be considered for improving osmotic tolerance in pistachio.
