Abstract:
Karela (Momordica charantia), is one of the most commonly used vegetable that contains polypeptide-p and is used to control diabetes naturally. Polypeptide-p or p-insulin is an insulin-like hypoglycemic protein, shown to lower blood glucose levels in gerbils, langurs and humans when injected subcutaneously. Momordica Anti-HIV Protein (MAP30), alpha- and beta-momorcharins inhibit HIV replication in acutely and chronically infected cells and thus are considered potential therapeutic agent in HIV infection and AIDS. Related to these valuable properties, the present study outlines the in vitro callus induction of Momordica charantia which be fundamental for various purposes such as indirect regeneration, suspension culture or hairy root culture systems. The effects of the orientation of leaf explant, type of auxins and light conditions were evaluated on percentages of callus induction on MS basal medium. Results showed that the best callus induction (95.40%) was achieved when the leaf segments were culture up side on MS medium supplemented by 2 mg/l 2, 4-D and kept in dark condition for 1 week.
