Abstract
Background
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most serious types of cancer that accounts for numerous cancer deaths worldwide. HCC is poorly prognosed and is a highly chemotherapy-resistant tumor. Therefore, new treatments are urgently needed. Exopolysaccharides (EPS-1) produced from the novel Bacillus sonorensis strain was found to exhibit chemopreventive effects against cancer.
Objective
Evaluating the anti-cancer cytotoxic effect of exopolysaccharides (EPS-1) produced by the newly studied Bacillus sonorensis strain SAmt2.
Methods
The cytotoxic activity was investigated through cell cycle, apoptosis, and autophagy analyses using flow cytometry technique. Also, the effect of EPS-1 on Huh7 release of COX-2 was examined using ELISA.
Results
Our results revealed that EPS-1exhibit an anti-proliferative effect on Huh7 cells through decreasing the percentage of cells at the S-phase and G2 phase, while increasing the cell population at the sub-G1 and G1 phases. Apoptosis analysis showed that EPS-1 increased necrotic and apoptotic cell fractions in EPS-1 treated Huh7. In addition, it induced significant autophagic cell death in the Huh7.Finally, antiproliferative and apoptosis induction results were supportedby ELISA assay results where the protein level of COX-2 was declined.
Conclusion
: In conclusion, EPS-1 derived from B. sonorensis SAmt2, is a promising proliferation inhibitor of Huh7 cells with potential anticancer effects.

期刊介绍:
Biotechnology Reports covers all aspects of Biotechnology particularly those reports that are useful and informative and that will be of value to other researchers in related fields. Biotechnology Reports loves ground breaking science, but will also accept good science that can be of use to the biotechnology community. The journal maintains a high quality peer review where submissions are considered on the basis of scientific validity and technical quality. Acceptable paper types are research articles (short or full communications), methods, mini-reviews, and commentaries in the following areas: Healthcare and pharmaceutical biotechnology Agricultural and food biotechnology Environmental biotechnology Molecular biology, cell and tissue engineering and synthetic biology Industrial biotechnology, biofuels and bioenergy Nanobiotechnology Bioinformatics & systems biology New processes and products in biotechnology, bioprocess engineering.
