AIM:To elucidate the adherence and immunomodulatory properties of a probiotic strain Bifidobacterium lactis(B.lactis) HN019.METHODS:Adhesion assays of B.lactis HN019 and Salmonella typhimurium(S.typhimurium) ATCC 14028 to INT-407 cells were carried out by detecting copies of species-specific genes with real-time polymerase chain reaction.Morphological study was further conducted by transmission electron microscopy.Interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-8,and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) gene expression were assessed while enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect IL-8 protein secretion.RESULTS:The attachment of S.typhimurium ATCC 14028 to INT407 intestinal epithelial cells was inhibited significantly by B.lactis HN019.B.lactis HN019 could be internalized into the INT-407 cells and attenuated IL-8 mRNA level at both baseline and S.typhimuriuminduced pro-inflammatory responses.IL-8 secretion was reduced while IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA expression level remained unchanged at baseline after treated with B.lactis HN019.CONCLUSION:B.lactis HN019 does not up-regulate the intestinal epithelium expressed pro-inflammatory cytokine,it showed the potential to protect enterocytes from an acute inflammatory response induced by enteropathogen.
