| Abstract | Sphaeralcea angustifolia is used in Mexican traditional medicine to treat inflammatory processes. SCopoletin (SC), TOmentin (TO), and sphaeralcic acid (SA) were reported as the main anti-inflammatory compounds in this species. The aim of this study was to establish in vitro conditions for the development of calli and cell suspension cultures that are the producers of these active compounds. Callus cultures of plant leaf explants were set up using different auxin levels of α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) in combination with a constant concentration (0.1 mg L$^{−1}$) of Kinetin (Kn) in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium. Optimal combinations for callus induction were 1.0 and 2.0 mg L$^{−1}$ of NAA. SC, TO, and SA were not detected in callus tissues. Employing a 4 % inoculum in fresh biomass, cell suspension was established from friable callus with 1.0 mg L$^{−1}$ of NAA in combination with 0.1 mg L$^{−1}$ of Kn in MS liquid medium (27.4 mM nitrate). The cellular suspension synthesized SC and SA, SC was excreted into the culture medium, while SA was excreted into the culture medium and accumulated in biomass. To improve SC and SA production, total nitrate content was reduced in MS medium. On diminishing nitrate content to 2.74 mM, cellular suspension growth was not modified. SC concentration (0.04 %) was 60-fold higher than that detected in the wild plant (0.00067 %), TO was produced (0.096 %), and SA content (0.0036 %) was not improved. SA production in MS medium with 0.274 mM nitrate (0.004 %) was enriched 12-fold (0.0003 %) in relation to that of the wild plant. The anti-inflammatory effects at 5 h of intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration (100 mg per kg BW) of dichloromethane extracts from the medium (42 ± 3 %) and biomass (39 ± 9.3 %) of S. angustifolia cell suspensions cultivated in MS with 2.74 mM nitrate were similar. The effect of the biomass dichloromethane extract was dose dependent with a median Effective Dose (ED$_{50}$) of 137.63 mg per kg BW. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
