Popis: The present study aimed to evaluate the antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of probiotic whey dairy beverages in human prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145). Five different whey beverages were manufactured: conventional whey beverage (without addition of probiotic strain, CTL); and whey beverages containing Lactobacillus acidophilus La-05, Lactobacillus acidophilus La-03, Lactobacillus casei-01, and Bifidobacterium animalis Bb-12. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay and cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis by flow cytometry. All the samples presented cytotoxic activities against both cell lines. A decrease in the percentage of PC-3 cells in G0/G1 and S, followed by an increase in G2/M phase were observed with L. casei-01, Bb-12 and La-05 beverages (50.0 and 100.0 µg/mL). The extracts of the whey beverages caused extensive apoptosis induction in both cells’ lines, regardless of the probiotic strain. However, the whey beverage added with L. casei-01 might be a better candidate against prostate cancer cells.
