Objective To compare the volatile oil and constituent content in Pog ostemon cablin Benth. propagated by cuttage and tissue culture. Methods The vola tile oil assay of Chinese pharmacopoeia and GC-MS method were used. Results The volatile oil and constituent content of Pogostemon cablin Benth. reproduced by cuttage was 14.2 mL/kg and 81.31 %,respectively. The volatile oil and constituent content of Pogostemon cablin reproduced by tissue culture was 12.2 mL/kg and 82.98 %,respectively. Conclusion The volatile oil content and constituent content of Pogostemon cablin Benth. reproduced by tissue culture are similar to which reproduced by cuttage.

While Mek1/2 and Gsk3β inhibition ("2i") supports the maintenance of murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in a homogenous naïve state, prolonged culture in 2i results in aneuploidy and DNA hypomethylation that impairs developmental potential. Additionally, 2i fails to support derivation and culture of fully potent female ESCs. Here we find that mouse ESCs cultured in 2i/LIF supplemented with lipid-rich albumin (AlbuMAX) undergo pluripotency transition yet maintain genomic stability and full potency over long-term culture. Mechanistically, lipids in AlbuMAX impact intracellular metabolism including nucleotide biosynthesis, lipid biogenesis, and TCA cycle intermediates, with enhanced expression of DNMT3s that prevent DNA hypomethylation. Lipids induce a formative-like pluripotent state through direct stimulation of Erk2 phosphorylation, which also alleviates X chromosome loss in female ESCs. Importantly, both male and female "all-ESC" mice can be generated from de novo derived ESCs using AlbuMAX-based media. Our findings underscore the importance of lipids to pluripotency and link nutrient cues to genome integrity in early development.
