| Résumé | Plant cell cultures are regarded as a potential source of medicinally important substances. Cell cultures of periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus) have received particular attention because of physiologically potent indole alkaloids they are expected to produce. Some of these compounds occur in the plant in minute amounts and their production by field crops is highly dependent on environmental conditions. Therefore, cell cultures offer major advantages as: (a) compounds could be produced year-round under controlled environmental conditions, assuring a steady suppl, (b) regulation of metabolic processes could maximize yields, and (c) cells could be genetically modified, and thus accumulate specific intermediates or other metabolites through biosynthesis or biotransformation. This review attempts in its first part to briefly summarize the occurrence of indole-alkaloids in callus and/or suspension cultures of C. roseus as reported by other groups, and in its second part gives an account of the results obtained by our group. |
