Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro immunomodulating capacity of Lactobacillus coryniformis subsp torquens T3L (L. coryniformis T3L) isolated from traditional fermented yak's milk in Tibet, China, and Lactobacillus paracasei supsp. paracasei M5L (L. paracasei M5L)isolated from kumiss in Sinkiang, China was used as control. The effects of live bacteria, cell wall and genomic DNA of the two Lactobacillus strains on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) proliferation, production of interleukin-12 (IL-12 p70), interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and natural killer (NK) cell activity were assessed. The live bacteria, cell wall and genomic DNA of the two lactobacilli exerted proliferative effects on PBMCs. Live bacteria at 1 × 106 c.f.u. ml-1, cell wall at 20 μg protein ml-1 and DNA at 50 μg DNA ml-1 of the strainS induced the secretion of IL-12 (p70), IFN-γ and TNF-α by PBMCs. NK cell activities increased after cultivation of PBMCs with live bacteria, cell wall and DNA of the strains. Overall, these results demonstrate that the live bacteria, cell wall and genomic DNA of the two Lactobacillus strains exhibit immunomodulating activity.
