[0001]The present invention is non-provisional filing of U.S. provisional patent application Nos. 62/516,083 filed on 6 Jun. 2017 and 62/516,077 filed on 6 Jun. 2017.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002]The invention in general relates to biological applications of extracellular metabolite isolated from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856. More specifically, the present invention discloses the anti-aging potential of extracellular metabolite isolated from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856.
DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART
[0003]With increase in age, the human skin is subjected to many changes which include wrinkling, sagging and increased laxity that visibly reveal the signs of aging. There are many intrinsic and extrinsic factors that affect skin aging such as hormones, skin-associated microflora, skin pH, reduced stratum corneum lipid content, decreased absolution of reactive oxygen species (ROS), greater metalloproteinase activity, desiccation, laxity, fine wrinkles, and atrophy of the skin. Of the above factors, many are natural and cannot be altered. There are several other factors that cause premature skin aging and can be influenced to induce graceful skin aging.
[0004]Prevention of skin aging is now being targeted widely by the industry players in the field of cosmetics and there is now an increased requirement for natural products that prevent skin aging. Probiotics are now being currently used in the skin care industry due to the health benefits they provide. The role of probiotics in aging, beauty, photodamage, and skin health are well described in the following prior art documents:

[0009]Both probotics and their extracellular metabolites are now being incorporated into skin care products (Katie Schaefer, Anti-aging Probiotic from Bacillus coagulans, https://www.cosmeticsandtoiletries.com/formulating/function/active/42099203.html, Mar. 9, 2012, accessed 26 May 2018). However, it is well known in the scientific art that biological effects of probiotics or products thereof are strain specific and cannot be generalised among genera, species and strains (Probiotics: In Depth/NCCIH, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health). Hence, there exists a need to find a superior probiotic strain and its extracellular product that can used effectively to reduce all signs of skin aging. The present invention solves the above mentioned problem by disclosing the beneficial effects of partially purified extracellular metabolite preparation of Bacillus coagulans on reducing skin aging.
[0010]It is the principle objective of the invention to disclose the anti-aging activity of a composition containing extracellular metabolite preparation of Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 by inhibiting the activities of collagenase and elastase and increasing the expression of TGF-β, epidermal growth factor and hyaluronic acid.
[0011]It is another objective of the invention to disclose the anti-glycation activity of a composition containing extracellular metabolite preparation of Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856.
[0012]The present invention fulfills the above mentioned objectives and provides further related advantages.

[0023]Specific illustrative examples enunciating the most preferred embodiments are included herein below
Example 1: Anti Collagenase Activity
[0024]Isolation of Extracellular Metabolite
[0025]The extracellular metabolite from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 was isolated as per the steps outlined in U.S. Pat. No. 9,596,861. The product is commercially available under the trade name LACTOSPORIN® (INCI: Bacillus ferment filtrate extract) from Sabinsa Corporation, USA.
[0026]Materials and Methods
[0027]Collagenase is one of the matrix metalloprotease, which digest collagen and other components of the extra cellular matrix (ECM). The ECM serves as a scaffold to stabilize the skin structure, and also helps in proliferation and metabolic functions of the skin cells. Loss of collagen leads to wrinkles and sagging of skin. The principle of the assay of collagenase inhibition is based on the fact that the substrate DQ™ gelatine is conjugated to fluorecein—a fluorescent compound. In DQ™ gelatine, fluorescence is quenched. DQ™ gelatine is efficiently digested by collagenases to yield a fluorescent compound which can be measured. The increase in fluorescence is proportional to enzyme activity. In the presence of an anti collagenase compound the amount of fluorescence will be decreased for a fixed concentration of enzyme and substrate.
[0000]Equipment-BMG FLUOstar Optima (fluorescent Microplate reader)
Reagents: Phosphate buffer (pH 7.4)
Collagenase Enzyme assay kit (Enzchek® collagenase, gelatinase assay kit, Invitrogen, USA)
Microtitre plates—96 well microtitre plates (black)—Corning, USA
[0029]The assay was performed in a 96 well black microtitre plate. Type IV from Clostridium histolyticum with DQ gelatin as substrate was used for the assay. Different concentrations of LACTOSPORIN® (80 μl) were pre incubated with 20 μl of gelatin substrate (12.5 μg/ml). 100 μl of the Collagenase enzyme solution (final concentration—0.4 U/ml) was added and the fluorescence intensity was measured at Em: 485 nm and Ex: 520 nm after 30 minutes. Enzyme activity of control (buffer) was recorded
[0030]The percentage inhibition is calculated as follows:—
[0000]%Inhibition=(B-BC)-(T-C)(B-BC)×100
[0000]B—Fluorescence in the presence of enzyme.
BC—Fluorescence in the absence of enzyme activity
T—Fluorescence of enzyme activity in the presence of inhibitor
TC—Fluorescence of the inhibitor alone
[0032]The extracellular metabolite exhibited a dose dependent anti collagenase activity with an IC50at 1.8% (50% inhibition of enzyme activity) (FIG. 1). The results revealed that the extracellular metabolite isolated from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 can preserve the extracellular matrix of the skin and prevent wrinkle formation and skin sagging, thereby preventing skin aging.
Example 2: Anti Elastase Activity
[0033]Isolation of Extracellular Metabolite
[0034]The extracellular metabolite from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 was isolated as per the steps outlined in U.S. Pat. No. 9,596,861. The product is commercially available under the trade name LACTOSPORIN® (INCI: Bacillus ferment filtrate extract) from Sabinsa Corporation, USA.
[0035]Materials and Methods
[0036]Elastase is one of the matrix metalloproteinases, which digest elastin and other components of the extra cellular matrix and is important both for normal skin development. If this enzyme is not regulated by inhibitor proteins results in wrinkling of skin, premature ageing and carcinogenesis. The Anti-Elastase assay by Enz Chek elastase assay kit determines the elastase inhibitory activity of the products. The assays were done using the EnzChek elastase assay kit. The substrate is DQ elastin soluble bovine neck ligament. DQ elastin is labeled with BODIPY FL dye. The non-fluorescent substrate can be digested by elastase to yield highly fluorescent fragments and in the presence of inhibitor, the fluorescence intensity is quenched. The fluorescence intensity was measured in a microplate reader (emission at 485 nm and excitation at 520 nm.)

Example 3: Anti-Glycation
[0042]Isolation of Extracellular Metabolite
[0043]The extracellular metabolite from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 was isolated as per the steps outlined in U.S. Pat. No. 9,596,861. The product is commercially available under the tradename LACTOSPORIN® (INCI: Bacillus ferment filtrate extract) from Sabinsa Corporation, USA.
[0044]Materials and Methods
[0045]Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are generated by the non enzymatic adduct formation between amino groups of proteins (predominantly lysine and arginine) and carbonyl groups of reducing sugar, also known as Maillard reaction. In the early stages, reducing sugars react with free amino groups to form an unstable aldimine compound which undergoes molecular rearrangement to form a stable early glycation product known as Amadori product. In the later stages, glycation process through oxidation, dehydration and cyclization reactions forms the advanced glycation end products also known as AGE. Various structures of AGEs such as Nε-(carboxymethyl)-lysine (CML), pyrraline, pentosidine, are known to be associated with degenerative disorders, including aging, diabetes, atherosclerosis Alzheimer's disease, and renal failure. AGEs also implicated in skin aging, accumulate a result of UV irradiation in both senescent and photoaged skin.
[0046]AGE can be fluorescent as well as non fluorescent in nature. Typically the vesperlysine type of AGE with typical structure as shown below have an excitation at 370-nm and emission at 440 nm, while pentosidine like AGE have an excitation at 335 nm and emission at 385 nm. The principle is based on the fact that ribose sugar and bovine serum albumin are mixed in specific ratio and incubated for 24 hours. Vesperlysine like AGE formed by the reaction was estimated by the increase in fluorescence detected at Ex/Em at 390/460 nm and pentosidines were detected at Ex/Em at 320/405 nm
[0048]Ribose, Bovine serum albumin, 96 well black microtitre plates
[0049]Ribose—BSA method: 10 μl of various concentrations of samples were added to 40 μl of BSA (bovine serum albumin, 25 mg/ml stock) and 50 μl of D-Ribose (150 mg/ml stock) was added per well of black 96-well microplate and incubated for 24 h at 37° C. Sample with only BSA is taken as the control. The AGE (advanced glycation end product) formed were detected by the fluorescence at Ex/Em at 390/460 nm for vesperlysine and Ex/Em at 320/405 nm for pentosidine AGE.
[0051]The inhibition of the AGEs vesperlysine and Pentosidine by the extracellular metabolite preparation from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 is tabulated in table 1.

[0053]The extracellular metabolite preparation from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 showed significant inhibition of vesperlysine type advanced glycation end product formation with 50% inhibition at 0.7%. Also, the metabolite was found to inhibit pentosidine type AGE formation by 41.75% at a concentration of 2%, indicating that the extracellular metabolite preparation from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 has the ability to preventing different types of glycation end products and thus can protect against the destructive effects of glycation and help boost the skin's healing and thereby prevent skin aging.

[0054]Isolation of Extracellular Metabolite
[0055]The extracellular metabolite from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 was isolated as per the steps outlined in U.S. Pat. No. 9,596,861. The product is commercially available under the trade name LACTOSPORIN® (INCI: Bacillus ferment filtrate extract) from Sabinsa Corporation, USA.
[0056]Materials and Methods
[0057]Dermal fibroblasts are crucial cellular components for the structural integrity of the skin. The extracellular matrix contains collagen, elastin and hyaluron which determine the integrity of skin. Hyaluronan (HA) synthesized by hyaluronan synthases which add UDP-glucosamine and UDP-glucuronic acid residues to a growing HA polymer chain. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β plays a central role in ECM biosynthesis and controls collagen homeostasis by regulation of both collagen synthesis and degradation. Epidermal growth factor stimulates cell growth and induces collagen synthesis.
[0058]Materials: Human dermal fibroblast cells, 6 well microtiter plates, fibroblast growth media, Trizol, can synthesis kit, SYBR green master mix for RT-PCR
[0060]Human dermal fibroblasts were cultured in 6 well microtitre plates in the presence of 0.25% extracellular metabolite from Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 for 24 hours. Untreated cells were used as control. At the end of incubation time, the cells were lysed and RNA was extracted
[0062]Cells were harvested after second progression on day 7 and total RNA was extracted using the Trizol method. Extracted RNA was treated with DNAse I to remove any contaminating DNA and again extracted using phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol extraction (24:25:1). Quality of RNA was determined by checking the absorbance at 260/280 nm using a Nanodrop (Thermo)
[0063]Quantitative Real Time PCR
[0064]2 μg of total RNA was taken for cDNA synthesis using SuperScript III First-Strand Synthesis System (Life Technologies). Quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed to determine the expression of brown fat specific genes in Roche Light cycler 96 using SYBR Green master mix (Thermo Scientific). β actin was used as a house keeping gene The relative RNA abundance of the genes was normalized to the housekeeping β actin gene and expressed as delta delta CT (equivalent to fold change transformed by Log2). Table 2 indicates the list of primers used for the expression studies.
