Two of the most essential cytokines on inflammatory processes are interleukin-10 which suppresses inflammation in the intestines
and interleukin-8 which has the opposite effect and provokes inflammation. Some lactic acid bacteria strains could modulate
intestinal mucosal immune response playing anti-inflammatory role in the intestinal immune signaling. The intestinal epithelium is
capable to produce the cytokine interleukin-8 (IL-8), especially after stimulation with other pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-�±.
The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effect of selected LAB strains isolated from Bulgarian yoghurt on IL-8 secretion in
intestinal epithelial cells with and without stimulation by TNF-�±. In the same time, we test them for their capability in induction
of anti-inflammatory interleukin-10 (IL-10) using splenocyte model for evaluation. A large number of strains with yoghurt and
intestinal origin were screened in their ability to reduce the production of IL-8 from human epithelium cell line Caco-2. The strains
demonstrating the highest reduction of IL-8 after stimulation of epithelium cells with TNF-�± were with intestinal origin, as expected,
but L. bulgaricus b58/1, L. bulgaricus b144, S. thermophilus T59 and S. thermophilus T43 gave surprisingly high and concurrent results
as well. The relative reduction of IL-8 secretion by these strains was between 14% and 34% after stimulation with TNF-�±, and between
2% and 12% without stimulation with TNF-�±. Regarding the results of interleukin-10, from the selected strains we obtained values as
followed: b144- 1457pg/ml; b58/1- 1584; T43- 1405; T59- 1659 pg/ml. According to the presented results, the selected strains could
have a beneficial potential against inflammation.
