An effective method of DNA isolation from the mature leaves of Gossypium species that contain large amounts of phenolic terpenoids and tannins.

Purified and unstained nuclei were isolated from the leaves of several Gossypium species (diploid and tetraploid) by means of a citrate buffer (pH 5.0), Triton X-100 (5%), and a reducing sugar (1M glucose). DNA, previously unobtainable, was then extracted from the nuclei by conventional means. Comparisons of final DNA yield were made between three methods of purification: namely, the standardized ribonuclease procedure, hydroxyapatite chromatography and equilibrium density centrifugation in cesium chloride. The latter method produce the lowest, yet purest, yield of DNA for renaturation studies in Gossypium.

Antitumor-promoting activities of hydrolyzable tannins in mouse skin.

Ellagic acid and gallic acid and its derivatives, applied topically to female CF-1 mice 20 min before each 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) treatment inhibit the inductions of epidermal ornithine decarboxylase activity, hydroperoxide production and DNA synthesis caused by this potent tumor promoter in relation with their abilities to inhibit the promotion of skin papillomas and carcinomas in the two-step initiation-promotion protocol. Because of its potency against TPA promotion, tannic acid, which is already known to inhibit tumor initiation, may inhibit the multistage process of carcinogenesis.
