Chitosan elicitation of Isatis tinctoria L. hairy root cultures for enhancing flavonoid productivity and gene expression and related antioxidant activity

Abstract: Elicitation for phytochemical enhancement via cost-effective elicitors can overcome the limitation of commercial application faced by plant cell and organ culture technology. Chitosan is a natural, low-cost, and nontoxic elicitor that can trigger plant defense responses with the concomitant enhancement in phytochemical biosynthesis. In this work, the elicitation of Isatis tinctoria L. hairy root cultures by chitosan was conducted to enhance the production of pharmacologically active flavonoids. In comparison w… Show more

“…Exogenous chitosan reportedly interacts with chitin synthase, and chitin deacetylase in plants, to produce chitosan oligomers that are responsible for signal perception in cells, leading to the activation of various genes, including genes of the ROS pathway [50,70,71]. Elicitor molecules have been used to stimulate a broad range of responses including defense mechanism [72] in field conditions as well as in vitro cultures for elicitation of secondary metabolites [73,74,75,76]. However, it was reported earlier that acetic acid alone itself may exert some effect [77].…”

“…Such promising results prompted the Chinese team to perform the elicitation experiments on these cultures in order to boost the bioactive metabolites' production. The elicitation experiment with chitosan was proven to increase the flavonoid yield in I. tinctoria hairy root biomass [118]. In comparison with the control (2.31 mg/g DW), a 7.08-fold enhancement of total flavonoids (16.35 mg/g DW) was achieved in 24-day-old hairy root cultures elicited by 150 mg/L chitosan for 36 h [118].…”

Under another study, the I. tinctoria hairy root cultures were exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C) in an attempt to promote the production flavonoids.…”

“…The elicitation by CHI causes the upregulation of flavonoid 3 0 -hydroxylase and chalcone synthase genes which in turn causes the elevated accumulation of flavonoids, i.e., rutin, quercetin, etc. [167]. Talking about the hairy roots of Agastache foeniculum, CHI shows a promotive effect on the hairy root growth.…”
