Considering the importance of the herb borage and its growing use in traditional medicine and the pharmaceutical industry, the waste resulting from the indiscriminate exploitation of wild plants, the need to cultivate this plant is widely seen as commercially necessary. To overcome the negative effects of salinity, the use of calcium supplements to improve the growth environment is an essential requirement. In order to investigate this issue we preformed a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications. Factors included salinity levels (0, 3, 6, 9, 12ds / m-1) and calcium at two levels 0 and 5 mM, respectively. The seeds were grown in Gldanbh for hydroponics. One week after planting treatments were applied. One month after treatment the leaves were sampled. The results showed that with increasing salinity levels, the element sodium and the amount of biomass and the guidance and catalase activity decreased. The high salinity levels and the presence of high levels of calcium chloride total chlorophyll and Falyt peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase were increased but there was decreased proline. Results of Khasl 2D electrophoresis showed that the expression of some proteins in high levels of salinity and chloride increased calcium levels and also different proteins expressed this protein was likely to create resistance and important loss of salt.
