Probiotic Immunomodulation in Health and Disease
Open accessAbstract
Probiotics, microorganisms that have a favorable influence on physiologic and pathological processes of the host by their effect on the intestinal flora, may play a role in improving human health. One of the putative effects is the modulation of immune function. Thus, the mucosal immune system and methods to assess its function are reviewed briefly. Probiotic modulation of humoral, cellular and nonspecific immunity is reviewed, with emphasis placed on immune response in disease models. There are very few reports of human intervention studies with probiotics. However, some of the possible future directions for research with respect to probiotics, immunity, and human health are discussed. Although the application of probiotics has demonstrated trends with respect to altered aspects of immune response, the underlying mechanisms by which that occurs are unclear.

“Some LAB strains can modulate innate and acquired immune responses by binding to specific receptors on immune cells and other tissues such as intestinal epithelial tissue, and by stimulating the production of cytokines, T cells, the activation of dendritic cells and macrophages, and the production of specific antibodies [229,230,231].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
