中文摘要The nitric oxide-specific fluorescent probe Fluorescent Nitric Oxide Cheletropic Trap (FNOCT) 8a was applied to intact tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun) roots to detect sites of nitric oxide formation and NO distribution. Three week old tobacco seedlings were gently removed from the sand culture pots with intact roots and transferred to small Petri dishes, whose base was replaced by a thin coverslip. Intact roots were subjected to FNOCT 8a to localize NO-dependent fluorescence in these roots; controls with an exogenous NO donor confirmed the presence and distribution of the probe in the roots. To confirm the NO-dependent fluorescence, roots were incubated with the three different NO scavengers cPTIO {2-(4-Carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-L-oxyl-3-oxide}, methylene blue and sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate (DCC) followed by incubation with FNOCT 8a. Methylene blue and DCC were able to completely quench NO-dependent fluorescence, cPTIO quenched partially. The roots were incubated in the presence of NaNO2 and NaNO3. which are substrates for nitrite:nitric oxide reductase (NI-NOR) and plasma membrane-bound nitrate reductase (PM-NR), respectively. The NO-dependent fluorescence was more or less same at the root tips upon treatment with NaNO2, while the overall fluorescence was reduced in the presence of NaNO3. Fluorescence from the living roots was visualized by inverted confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) using UV laser (excitation 360 nm and emission 408 nm). A specialized apparatus has been devised by the authors for analysis of intact roots as described in the methods section of this paper. Intact roots were chosen for microscopic observation rather than incised roots to avoid production of NO due to stress or physical injury. (C) 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
