Modulation of mucosal antiviral immune response by immunobiotic lactic acid bacteria 5 Part I: the intestinal mucosa
(Formatex, 2013)
Viruses are the most important cause of severe mucosal infections worldwide especially in high risk populations such as in infants, young children, elderly and immunocompromised hosts. A significant improvement in the ...
Prostate immunology: A challenging puzzle
(Elsevier Ireland, 2020-11)
Mucosal immunity defines the relationship of surfaces in contact with the environment and integrates diverse tissues such as epidermis, gum, nose, gut, uterus and prostate with the immune system. Although considered part ...
Age-related changes in ocular mucosal tolerance: Lessons learned from gut and respiratory tract immunity
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-04)
The ocular surface is the part of the visual system directly exposed to the environment, and it comprises the cornea, the first refractive tissue layer and its surrounding structures. The ocular surface has evolved to keep ...
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum as a potential adjuvant and delivery system for the development of sars-cov-2 oral vaccines
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-03-26)
The most important characteristics regarding the mucosal infection and immune responses against the Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as well as the current vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 ...
Adjuvant effects of Lactobacillus casei added to a renutrition diet in a malnourished mouse model
(Sociedad Latinoamericana de Microscopía Electrónica, 2002-04)
Nutritional deficiencies are associated with impaired immune response, affecting the body’s defence mechanisms. It is also known that Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) and fermented products such us yogurt have immunopotentiator ...
Immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory activity induced by oral administration of a probiotic strain of Lactobacillus casei
(SAGE Publications, 2006-01-01)
The aim of this work was to study the effect of the long-term cyclic administration of the probiotic strain of Lactobacillus (L.) casei CRL 431 as a mucosal immunomodulator of the immune cells associated with the lamina ...
Role of probiotics and functional foods in health: Gut immune stimulation by two probiotic strains and a potential probiotic yoghurt
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2015-01)
There are numerous reports that show the benefits on the health attributed to the probiotic consumptions. Most of the studies were performed using animal models and only some of them were validated in controlled human ...
Immunological status of isolated lymphoid follicles after intestinal transplantation
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-09)
Intestinal transplantation (ITx) faces the challenge of grafting a high immunogenic organ, which is certainly one of the major obstacles for intestinal allograft acceptance. The allograft has to guarantee the proper ...
Novel LysM motifs for antigen display on lactobacilli for mucosal immunization
(Nature Publishing Group, 2021-11)
We characterized two LysM domains of Limosilactobacillus fermentum, belonging to proteins Acglu (GenBank: KPH22907.1) and Pgb (GenBank: KPH22047.1) and bacterium like particles (BLP) derived from the immunomodulatory strain ...
Airway structural cells regulate TLR5-mediated mucosal adjuvant activity
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-05)
Antigen-presenting cell (APC) activation is enhanced by vaccine adjuvants. Most vaccines are based on the assumption that adjuvant activity of Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists depends on direct, functional activation of ...
