Expert Probiotic Immunomodulatory Assay Services
Workflow
In Vitro Assays (Cell-Based Studies)
-
Immune Cell Stimulation Assays: To evaluate the direct effects of different forms and derivatives of probiotics, including live bacteria, heat-inactivated bacteria, or their components, on various immune cells, including:
-
Monocytes and Macrophages
-
Dendritic Cells (DCs)
-
T Lymphocytes (CD4+ and CD8+)
-
B Lymphocytes
-
Natural Killer (NK) Cells
-
Cytokine and Chemokine Profiling: Under the stimulation of probiotics, the levels of various cytokines and chemokines released by immune cells were measured.
-
Pattern Recognition Receptor (PRR) Interaction Studies: The interaction between probiotic components.
-
Epithelial Cell Interaction Studies: Evaluating the effects of probiotics on intestinal epithelial cells
-
Co-culture Assays: In vitro investigations employing co-culture systems, involving the simultaneous cultivation of disparate cellular populations (e.g., epithelial and immune cell lineages) under the influence of probiotic interventions, permit the interrogation of indirect mechanistic pathways.
-
Gene Expression Analysis
-
NF-κB and other signaling pathway assays: Activate or inhibit the signaling pathway.
In Vivo Assays (Animal Models)
-
Host Resistance Models: Probiotic enhancement of host defense against pathogens is evaluated in animal infection models.
-
Allergy Models: Probiotic impact on allergic responses is assessed in animal models of asthma, food allergy, or atopic dermatitis.
-
Autoimmunity Models: Probiotic functions are investigated by evaluating their impact on disease severity and biomarkers in relevant disease models.
-
Contact Hypersensitivity Models: Probiotic effects on Th1-mediated immune responses are evaluated in skin inflammation models.
-
Analysis of the intestinal microbiota: High-throughput sequencing methods were employed to characterize the changes in the intestinal microbiota after probiotic intervention.
-
Immune Landscape Assessment: Quantify the immune cell subsets, cytokine expression, and antibody titers within the specific tissues of the subjects receiving probiotics.
-
Tissue Microenvironment Examination: Histological assessment of tissue sections.

FAQs
What is a probiotic immunomodulatory assay?
The probiotic immune regulation test is mainly used to reflect the complex interaction between probiotics and the host's immune components, to characterize their ability to regulate immune responses.
Why are probiotic immunomodulatory assays important?
These assays are crucial for:
-
Understanding Mechanisms of Action: Elucidating how specific probiotic strains exert their beneficial effects on health, particularly concerning the immune system.
-
Strain Selection: Identifying probiotic strains with desired immunomodulatory properties for specific health applications (e.g., allergy reduction, gut health improvement, infection resistance).
-
Safety Assessment: Evaluating potential adverse immune reactions that a probiotic might induce, especially in vulnerable populations.
-
Product Development: Providing scientific evidence to support health claims associated with probiotic-containing products.
What factors can influence the results of these assays?
Several factors can affect the outcome of probiotic immunomodulatory assays:
-
Probiotic Strain: Different strains of the same species can exhibit distinct immunomodulatory effects.
-
Probiotic Viability and Dosage: The number of live bacteria and the dose used can influence the immune response.
-
Growth Conditions and Preparation of Probiotics: How the probiotics are cultured and prepared for the assay can be critical.
-
Host Immune Cell Type and State.
-
Assay Conditions: Factors like incubation time, temperature, and the presence of other stimuli can affect the measured immune responses.
-
Animal Models: The specific animal model used can influence the observed effects due to differences in their immune systems.
Are there any standardized protocols for these assays?
The probiotic immunomodulatory assay is tailored to specific research goals, probiotic strains, and expected results. Currently, there is no standardized operating procedure.
