Anti-proliferative effects of Bifidobacterium adolescentis SPM0212 extract on human colon cancer cell lines

Abstract: Background: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are beneficial probiotic organisms that contribute to improved nutrition, microbial balance, and immuno-enhancement of the intestinal tract, as well as anti-tumor activity. The aim of the present work was to study the growth inhibition of tumor cells by butanol extract of Bifidobacterium adolescentis isolated from healthy young Koreans.

“…Probiotics such as lactic acid bacteria help maintain health in numerous ways: (a) preventing overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria, (b) assisting in digestion, (c) protecting and enhancing immune function, (d) strengthening the intestinal mucosal barrier function and (e) neutralizing food mutagens produced in the colon (Fuller, 1989;Fernandes and Shahani, 1990;Lee et al, 2008). Bifidobacterias are generally considered beneficial for health and have been widely used, individually and/or in combination with lactobacilli, probiotic foods and products to increase the probiotic content in the human GI tract (Salminen et al, 1998).…”

“…Thirabunyanon et al (2009) relatam que a aplicação de probióticos como um alimento funcional é importante para aumentar continuamente a saúde humana a cada ano. Embora os mecanismos precisos pelos quais BAL inibem cân-cer de cólon não sejam completamente conhecidos, vários mecanismos têm sido propostos: (a) o aumento da resposta imune do hospedeiro, (b) potenciais agentes cancerígenos degradantes, (c) alterações na microbiota intestinal que produzem carcinógenos, (d) a produção de compostos anti--tumorigênicos ou anti-mutagênicos no cólon, e (e) alteração das atividades metabólicas intestinal (Lee et al 2008). A utilização de modelo celular de câncer de cólon como as células caco-2 e HT-29 vêm sendo experimentadas para elucidar os mecanismos de ação das BAL frente à doença.…”

“…Até 75% dos casos estão associados com a alimentação, indicando que uma pessoa pode reduzir o seu risco simplesmente através de modificação na dieta (Chen et al 2012). De acordo com Lee et al (2008) apesar dos avanços recentes na compreensão dos processos biológicos resultantes do desenvolvimento do câncer, continua a existir uma necessidade de agentes novos e eficazes para controlar a doença.…”

“…Research studies also speculated that incorporation of probiotics in the diet can also have substantial impact on cell signaling system. L. reuteri may prevent carcinogenesis via downregulating NF-κB-dependent genes which regulate cell proliferation (Cox-2, cyclin D1) and survival (Bcl-2, Bcl-xL) [144]. In addition to that L. reuteri suppressed tumor necrosis factors (TNF)-induced NF-κB activation including NF-κB dependent reporter gene expression in a dose-and time-dependent manner to slow down cancer cell growth.…”
