title: [Involvement of anion channel in signal transduction of early defense responses elicited by harpinPss in tobacco].
abstract: No matter when anion channel inhibitors, DIDS (4, 4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2, 2'-disulfonic acid) and A9C (anthracene-9-carboxylic acid) added (before, at the same time of or after harpinPss treatment), they can inhibit harpinPss-induced hypersensitive response in tobacco seedlings and release of active oxygen and extracellular alkalinization in tobacco suspension cells. DIDS and A9C also inhibit harpinPss-induced Ca2+ influx. In all these cases, DIDS is more efficient than A9C. It is postulated that anion channel positively regulates calcium channel in plasma membrane, and harpinPss may function through signal transduction mediated by anion channel and calcium channel to regulate cellular Ca2+ concentration and defense responses.
