Title Antidiabetic effects of novel cell culture established from grapevine, Vitis vinifera cv. Koshu.
Journal Cytotechnology
Abstract Vitis vinifera cv. Koshu is an indigenous cultivar in Japan and has several characteristics that distinguish it from European V. vinifera. In Japan, Koshu is the most popular cultivar for wine making. We report herein a cell culture established from Koshu for use as a system for the production of resveratrol and its derivatives. Grape cell culture YU-1 was developed from the apex tissues of Koshu. YU-1 growth was favorably compared with BY-2 growth, a standard cell line in plant cell biology. Stilbene production and stilbene synthesis gene expression in YU-1 were upregulated by UV-C irradiation. YU-1 irradiated with UV-C decreased hemolymph sugar levels in model animals. Taken together, this study suggests that YU-1 may be used as a source of valuable medicinal components in plant cell bioreactor systems.
