However, an increasing number of problems related to cryo-injury and cryoprotectant toxicity could potentially reduce the quality of root clones, highlighting the need to develop a reliable technique for long-term preservation. Based on the impact of the successive steps of the initial droplet-vitrification procedure employed for cryopreservation of HRs using the histological evaluation of plasmolysis, various selected factors were independently investigated. The maximum plasmolysis was observed after the preculture with 0.5 M sucrose (46.59 %) and the dehydration treatment (48.32 %). In the improved cryopreservation procedure, when prolonged preculture for 72 h in liquid WPM with 0.3 M sucrose and dehydration in the appropriate vitrification solution, which included 30 % (w/v) glycerol and 50 % (w/v) sucrose, for 10 min at 0 °C, the plasmolysis in the two steps was significantly reduced in comparison with the untreated control. The cryopreserved HRs could increase their regeneration to 93.3 % and regenerated root length to 4.65 cm. Their growth and imperatorin production were almost the same as those of untreated controls after three to five subsequent subcultures. Our results have demonstrated that our new approach, which only focuses on the key factors that significantly increase the plasmolysis, modifies their level to fit with the HR cells of <em>U. lobata</em>. The early application of the plasmolysis evaluation method may immediately screen the impact of factors on individual root cells instead of spending time and cost evaluating the recovery of root tips at each step to develop an efficient cryopreservation procedure.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10897,"journal":{"name":"Cryobiology","volume":"118 ","pages":"Article 105186"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142767132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We supposed that associated extracellular cryoprotectants (sucrose and L-proline) with 2.5 or 10 % dimethyl sulfoxide (Me<sub>2</sub>SO) could guarantee better northern tiger cat cells quality rates after thawing when compared to Me<sub>2</sub>SO alone. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of sucrose or L-proline with 2.5 or 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO on the cryopreservation of northern tiger cat fibroblasts. Somatic cells were also cryopreserved with 2.5 % or 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO alone. All cells were analyzed for morphology, membrane integrity, proliferative activity, metabolism, apoptosis classification, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). Regardless of the cryoprotective solution, cryopreservation did not affect morphology, membrane integrity after culture, proliferative activity, and metabolism (P > 0.05). However, immediately after thawing, 2.5 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO with L-proline and 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO promoted higher rates of membrane integrity when compared to the other cryopreserved groups (P < 0.05). Interestingly, cells cryopreserved with 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO maintained ROS levels similar to non-cryopreserved cells (P > 0.05). However, the percentage of viable cells evaluated by apoptosis classification was reduced when using 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO with L-proline compared to non-cryopreserved groups (P < 0.05). Additionally, ΔΨm was altered in all cryopreserved groups (P < 0.05). In summary, sucrose and L-proline were less effective in cryopreservation of northern tiger cat fibroblasts in the presence of 2.5 % or 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO. Also, 10 % Me<sub>2</sub>SO appears to be the most suitable cryoprotectant for the formation of cryobanks of this species.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10897,"journal":{"name":"Cryobiology","volume":"118 ","pages":"Article 105169"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142692306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
