Purpose : Recent studies have demonstrated that probiotics are effective in the management of allergic diseases, but there have been few reports about their preventive effects in asthma. We examined the effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) and its mechanism in the primary prevention of asthma. Methods : Before allergen sensitization, newborn Balb/c mice orally received 1×109 colony forming unit (CFU) LA per day every 2 days for consecutive 4 weeks starting from birth. After ovalbumin sensitization and challenge from day 36, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) to methacholine, influx of inflammatory cells to the lung, serum total IgE levels, cytokine levels in the supernatant of splenocytes culture, and expression of FoxP3 mRNA in the peribronchial lymph nodes were assessed. Results : The AHR showed a tendency to decrease in LA group, however, there was no statistical significance. The eosinophil counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum total IgE were significantly reduced in LA group compared with asthma control group. LA effectively induced IFN-γ secretion and inhibited IL-4, IL-5 and TGF-β1 secretion compared with asthma control group. The expression of FoxP3 mRNA in peribronchial lymph nodes did not show any difference between LA and asthma control group. Conclusion : Oral LA administration in murine model of asthma attenuated AHR and significantly suppressed eosinophilic inflammation in the airway. These effects of LA were mediated by suppressing Th2 immune response and enhancing Th1 immune response. The results may suggest the possible role of LA in the primary prevention of asthma.
