Fig. 7From: Immunoregulatory effects triggered by immunobiotic Lactobacillus jensenii TL2937 strain involve efficient phagocytosis in porcine antigen presenting cellsBlood phagocytes cytokine response to immunobiotic Lactobacillus jensenii TL2937 stimulation. Porcine blood monocytes and, immature and mature monocytes-derived dendritic cells (MoDCs) were treated with the immunobiotic strain L. jensenii TL2937 or the non-immunoregulatory strain L. plantarum TL2766. Untreated MoDCs cells were used as negative controls. Cell treated with LPS or PamC3SK4 were used as positive controls. Expression of IL-1β, IL-12p40, and IL-10 mRNAs was examined using RT-PCR. In experiments cells were used in a concentration of 5.0 × 106 cells/well. The results represent data from three independent experiments using different donors.
