Study of levan productivity from Bacillus subtilis Natto by surface response methodology and its antitumor activity against HepG2 cells using metabolomic approach
Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 6
Abstract
Levan productivity of Bacillus subtilis Natto was evaluated in submerged culture varying the pH, temperature and culture time, using factorial design and response surface methodology. The characterization of levan molecular weight was performed by HPSEC and its antitumor activity against HepG2 cells using metabolomic approach was also evaluated. At first, the variables investigated, as well as their interactions, demonstrated significant effect. Further, a second design using the same variables at different levels was developed. Thus, according to the model, an optimized value corresponding to 5.82g.L-1.h-1 was achieved at pH 8, 39.5°C in 21 hours, the highest value reported so far. After analysis by HPSEC, two molecular weights were obtained corresponding to 72.37 and 4146 kDa. The levan promoted an increase of acetate, alanine, lactate and phosphocreatine in HepG2 cells suggesting an alteration in the bioenergetics pathways and cellular homeostasis by intracellular accumulation of lactate, justifying its antitumor activity.
