<b><i>Lactococcus lactis</i></b> NZ9000 Prevents Asthmatic Airway Inflammation and Remodelling in Rats through the Improvement of Intestinal Barrier Function and Systemic TGF-β Production

Abstract: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The use of probiotics has been broadly popularized due to positive effects in the attenuation of aberrant immune responses such as asthma. Allergic asthma is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by airway inflammation and remodelling. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of oral administration of <i>Lactococcus lactis</i> NZ9000 on asthmatic airway inflammation and lung tissue remodell… Show more

“…A beneficial effect of the administration of probiotics was suggested by showing that oral administration of Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 to rats resulted in a decrease in infiltration of pro-inflammatory leucocytes, mainly eosinophils and decreased lung IL-4 and IL-5 expression in the broncho-alveolar lavage and a reduced level of serum allergen-specific IgE [ 24 ]. Another study conducted in mice using Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 significantly prevented airway hyperreactivity development and prevented microbiome disturbance in the asthmatic animals, supporting the existence of the gut–lung axis [ 25 ].…”

“…For example, various Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains have shown anti-inflammatory effects in the airway in murine models, suppressing the total immunoglobulin E (IgE) production and pulmonary eosinophil-associated inflammation ( 15 ). Other strains, e.g., Bifidobacterium breve M-16 ( 16 ), Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 ( 17 ), and Bifidobacterium lactis Bb-12 ( 18 ), could suppress asthmatic symptoms. On the contrary, unlike in animal experiments, application of probiotics in managing asthma has not achieved consistent results in human clinical trials.…”

“…Lastly, the roles of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics appear to reduce the respiratory inflammatory pattern via the gut-lung axis, but their role in the prevention and treatment of asthma is questionable due to the connection between the gut and lung microbiomes [303][304][305][306][307][308][309][310][311][312][313][314][315][316]319]. In order to describe the role of dietary supplements (such as fish oil, vitamins, probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics) in preventing and improving asthma management in children, further studies are necessary.…”

“…Prebiotics are substrates, such as inulin, fructooligosaccharides, and galacto-oligosaccharides, used by the host's microbiota with a beneficial effect. Synbiotics include live microorganisms and energetic substrates that can have a beneficial effect on the body [305][306][307].…”
