Most varieties have beneficial immunological (immunoprobiotic) effects in the host. by pretreatment with a Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2)-neutralizing antibody. Overall, our findings suggest that this probiotic strain promotes an M1-like pro-inflammatory phenotype through the TLR2 signaling pathway. These effects on macrophage phenotype help explain the probiotic efficacy of and provide important information for the selection… Continue reading Most varieties have beneficial immunological (immunoprobiotic) effects in the host
