The application and mechanisms of probiotics in allergic diseases / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Probiotics stimulate dendritic cells exert regulatory functions by promoting the release of cytokines,which change the balance of Th1/Th2.This process mediates Th1 cell response instead of Th2 to enhance immune function.Probiotics have shown preventive and therapeutic potential for diseases,including several IgE-related diseases,such as atopic dermattis,asthma and allergic rhinitis.However,because of complex causes and numerous incentives,there is no consistent conclusion regarding probiotics application in allergic diseases.Further evidence-based medical researches will be required in the future.
