The effect of surfactin on the proliferation of LoVo cells, a human colon carcinoma cell line, was examined. Surfactin strongly blocked the proliferation of LoVo cells by inducing pro-apoptotic activity and arresting the cell cycle, according to several lines of evidence on DNA fragmentation, Annexin V staining, and altered levels of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, caspase-3, p21WAF1/Cip1, p53, CDK2 and cyclin E. The anti-proliferative activity of surfactin was mediated by inhibiting extracellular-related protein kinase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt activation, as assessed by phosphorylation levels. Therefore, our data suggest that surfactin may have anti-cancer properties as a result of its ability to downregulate the cell cycle and suppress its survival.
