Brassica juncea L. plants were subjected to cobalt (Co) ion (0, 5 × 10⁻⁴, 10⁻³, 1.5 × 10⁻³ and 2 × 10⁻³ M) toxicity and were sprayed with different concentrations of 24-epibrassinolide (24-EBL) (0, 10⁻¹⁰, 10⁻⁸ and 10⁻⁶ M) at 15-day stage after sowing. They were sampled at 30 and 60 days after sowing and analyzed for growth parameters in terms of shoot length and number of leaves. Thereafter, leaves were excised and content of proteins and the activities of antioxidative enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD) (EC 1.15.1.1) catalase (CAT) (EC 1.11.1.6), ascorbate peroxidase (APOX) (EC 1.11.1.11), guaiacol peroxidase (POD) (EC 1.11.1.7) glutathione reductase (GR) (EC 1.6.4.2), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) (EC 1.1.5.4) and dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) (EC 1.8.5.1)) were analyzed. The plants exposed to cobalt ion exhibited a significant decline in growth in terms of shoot length and number of leaves. However, foliar spray treatment with 24-EBL was able to alleviate the stress generated by cobalt ion and significantly improved the above parameters. The activities of antioxidative enzymes (SOD, CAT, POD, GR, APOX,MDHAR and DHAR) and protein content were also regulated considerably in leaves of plants treated with 24-EBL alone, 10⁻⁸ M concentration being the most effective. The activities of antioxidative enzymes also increased in leaves of B. juncea plants by the application of cobalt ion to soil and consequently sprayed with 24-EBL. Similarly, the protein content was also regulated in leaves of B. juncea plants treated with 24-EBL as compared to untreated control plants, thereby revealing stress-protective properties of 24-EBL.

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of steroidal plant hormones which are essential for growth and development of plants. These hormones affect plant growth and development through a spectrum of physiological responses. Recent reports showed their stress-protective, antiviral, antitumor and antigenotoxic potential. In the present study, an attempt was made to isolate 24-Epibrassinolide from 30-days-old Brassica juncea L. plants which was characterized by ESI–MS analysis. The ESI–MS analysis of isolated Brassinolide was compared with the standard 24-Epibrassinolide, which confirmed its MS/MS fragmentation pattern. Various concentrations of the isolated brassinosteroid were given as pre-sowing treatment to the seeds of B. juncea for 8 h. The pre-treated seeds were then raised in experimental pots containing different concentrations of nickel ion. After 30 days, plants were harvested and analyzed for growth parameters, ion uptake and antioxidant defense system. It was observed that pre-treatment of isolated 24-Epibrassinolide lowered the Ni ion uptake in plants and improved growth. The amelioration of Ni toxicity was also observed by the activities of antioxidant enzymes. The in vitro cytotoxicity of natural 24-Epibrassinolide against different cancer cell lines was checked by employing sulphorhodamine bioassay and it revealed significant inhibition in the lung cancer cell line.
