    Notes: Summary Thein vivo effects of 22-oxa-1α, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 (OCT), on bone mineral metabolism were investigated in normal male Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats were administered either vehicle (control), low-dose OCT (25 ng/100 g body weight), or high-dose OCT (250 ng/100 g body wt). High-dose OCT increased serum ionized calcium (P〈0.05) and decreased serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) (P〈0.05) at all time points and increased serum bone Gla protein on days 7 and 28 (P〈0.05) compared with controls. Lowdose OCT decreased serum PTH at all the time points (P〈0.05) compared with controls. Tibial bone histomorphometry showed no significant differences between the two doses of OCT and controls. We found that OCT has minimal direct effects on bone metabolism in normal male rats in contrast to 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3. This property may be advantageous in the treatment with OCT of cell-proliferative diseases.

    Notes: Summary Immunosuppressants have adverse effects on bone mineral metabolism in animal and human studies, with corticosteroids producing low-turnover osteopenia, and cyclosporin-A (CsA) producing high-turnover osteopenia. Rapamycin (RAPA) is a new immunosuppressant reported to be at least 10 times more potent than CsA, and acts via a different pathway to CsA and the other new immunosuppressant FK506. This study investigated the effects of RAPA on bone mineral metabolism in the rat. Forty-two, 10-week-old, male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups, and treated according to the following protocol: group A (control) received RAPA vehicle by daily gavage for 14 days (n = 12); group B (high dose RAPA) received RAPA 2.5 mg/kg/day by daily gavage for 14 days (n = 15); group C (low dose RAPA) received RAPA 1.25 mg/kg/day by daily gavage for 14 days (n = 15). Rats were weighed and bled on days 0, 7, and 14 for measurement of blood ionized calcium, bone Gla protein (BGP), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and 1,25(OH)2D. Tibial bone histomorphometry was determined on day 14 after double-calcein labeling. Weight gain was similar in the two groups treated with RAPA compared with control animals. High-dose RAPA (group B) transiently depressed serum BGP levels on day 7, with elevated blood ionized calcium levels on day 7, and lowered 1,25(OH)2D levels on day 14. Serum PTH levels were unchanged. Low dose RAPA (group C) did not affect calciotropic hormones. Histomorphometric analyses of tibial metaphyses revealed that parameters of bone formation and resorption were not significantly different in the groups treated with RAPA (group B and C) compared with control animals (group A). Trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) in group B (high-dose RAPA) (15.39 ± 1.01%) and C (low-dose RAPA) (15.38 ±0.57%) was not significantly altered compared with group A (control) (16.42 ± 0.86%). Short-term treatment with RAPA, unlike CsA, does not result in excess resorption and loss of bone volume. The depressed serum 1,25(OH)2D levels seen with high-dose RAPA therapy may adversely effect bone mineral metabolism in the long term.

    Notes: Abstract Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) greatly enhanced the rooting of an early-flowering variety of protea, Leucadendron discolor, but had very little effect on a late-flowering variety. IBA transport and metabolism were studied in both varieties after incubating the cuttings in 3H-IBA. More of the radio-label was transported to the leaves of the easy-to-root variety than the difficult-to-root (35–45% and 10%, respectively). IBA was metabolized rapidly by the cuttings of both varieties and after 24 h most of the label was in the new metabolite. However, free IBA (about 10%) was present in the cuttings during the whole period up to the time of root emergence (4 weeks). More free IBA was accumulated in the base of easy-to-root cuttings, while in the difficult-to-root variety most of the IBA was found in the leaves. The metabolite was identified tentatively as an ester conjugate with a glucose. It is possible that IBA-glucose serves as a source for free IBA, and the difference between the varieties is a consequence of the free IBA which is released, transported and accumulated in the site of a root formation.

    Notes: Abstract Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) was identified by HPLC and GC-MS as one of the reaction products after incubation of sterile cultures of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings with labeled indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). This is the first demonstration of IBA biosynthesis in a dicotyledonous plant. After 1 h of incubation most of the IBA was found in the free form, while after longer periods of incubation most of it was detected in conjugated forms. Formation of IBA conjugates was inhibited by the addition of unlabeled IBA. The biosynthesis of IBA and its conjugates was followed throughout the development of the seedlings and at different pH values. All parts of the plant (isolated roots, leaves, shoots and flowers) were able to convert IAA to IBA to the same extent. IAA was more readily transported than IBA in mature Arabidopsis plants. Feeding of labeled phenylacetic acid (PAA) and α-naphthylacetic acid (NAA) to Arabidopsis seedlings resulted in a new small peak which was hydrolyzed by 7N NaOH, but the formation of compounds with longer side chains (analogous to IBA) could not be detected.

    Notes: Abstract Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) was metabolized by seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana cultivated in liquid medium under sterile conditions to two major metabolites. One metabolite was hydrolyzed by 1 N NaOH and β-glucosidase and was tentatively identified as IBA-glucose and the other was hydrolyzed by 7 N NaOH and amidase and was identified as an amide-linked conjugate. IBA-glucose synthase activity was found in a soluble enzyme fraction after incubation of 3H-IBA, IBA and UDP-glucose. The labelled reaction product had an Rf value comparable to IBA glucose and stained positive with Ehmann reagent.

    Notes: Abstract Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) was identified by HPLC and GC-MS as an endogenous compound in plantlets of the crucifer Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. A. thaliana was cultivated under sterile conditions as shaking culture in different liquid media with and without supply of hormones. Free and total IBA and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) were determined at different stages of development during the culture period as well as in culture media of different initial pH values. The results showed that IAA was present in higher concentrations than IBA, but both hormones seemed to show the same behaviour under the different experimental conditions. Differences were found in the mode of conjugation of the two hormones. While IAA was mostly conjugated via amide bonds, the main IBA conjugates were ester bound. The ethylene concentration derived from the seedlings, when they were grown in flasks of different size, seemed not to influence the auxin content in the same cultures.
