Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed at evaluating the regulatory effect of lactobacillus strains on the proinflammatory responses in keratinocytes. Cell culture study showed that some Lactobacillus strains suppressed the expression of TARC (thymus and activation-regulated chemokine) in human keratinocyte cell line. Significant inhibitory effect on the development of dermatitis was observed by topical application of an extract obtained from disrupted bacterial body of the TARC-suppressive strain in atopic dermatitis model mice. The study showed that a possibility of novel usage of a lactobacillus strains as a prevention material against the development of atopic dermatitis.
