CCFM1274 improves asthma symptoms
We investigated how the probiotic strain CCFM1274 can help alleviate allergic asthma symptoms. Using a mouse model, we administered CCFM1274 alongside ovalbumin, a common allergen, and observed positive results.

This treatment not only reduced weight loss and mortality but also improved inflammatory responses in the lungs. Notably, there was a decrease in specific immune markers, indicating CCFM1274 might adjust gut tryptophan metabolism beneficially, highlighting potential new strategies for asthma management.

Bifidobacterium lactis reduces asthma symptoms
We explored how Bifidobacterium lactis, a probiotic, might impact asthma symptoms. In a mice study, newborns were given this probiotic every other day for eight weeks while being exposed to allergens. The results showed that this treatment effectively reduced airway inflammation and allergic reactions associated with asthma.

Although both Bifidobacterium lactis and another probiotic demonstrated benefits, the exact mechanisms remain to be fully understood. Nevertheless, it appears that these probiotics could play a role in fostering a healthier immune response against asthma.

We aimed to investigate whether Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 could reduce asthmatic airway inflammation and lung tissue changes in rats while also supporting gut health.

Through careful testing, we found that L. lactis lowered pro-inflammatory cells in the lungs and improved the intestinal barrier. The treatment led to less collagen buildup in lung tissue and enhanced immune function.

Overall, while L. lactis showed promising results in improving asthma symptoms in rats, further research is needed to confirm its effectiveness in humans.

Improved asthma control

I have been using this probiotic brand for over five years, and it has significantly bolstered my immune system and bowel health. The new formulation, suitable for children from four years and upwards, has been effective for my six-year-old grandson, who suffers from asthma. He has experienced no breathing issues from the cold air since starting it this past month. I highly recommend this product; you will be very pleased you tried it.

We aimed to explore the potential benefits of a novel herbal medicine, MA, and its fermented version, MA128, on asthma treatment. This involved inducing asthma in mice and administering these treatments regularly for four weeks.

Our findings revealed that both MA and MA128 successfully reduced inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness. Notably, the fermentation process with Lactobacillus acidophilus enhanced the effectiveness of the herbal remedy, influencing immune responses positively.

This indicates a promising avenue for asthma management through natural products, though further research is needed for clear clinical applications.

We explored the impact of Lactococcus lactis producing mycobacterial heat shock protein 65 (LLHsp65) on allergic asthma using a mouse model. Over ten days, OVA-challenged mice received oral LLHsp65, which showed promising results.

The treatment notably reduced airway inflammation, mucus production, and eosinophil levels. It also shifted immune responses to favor protective responses while increasing regulatory T cells and cytokines like IL-6 and IL-10.

These outcomes suggest that LLHsp65 offers a hopeful new strategy for managing allergic asthma effectively.
