Patent Searching and Data


Title:
免疫調節性機能を誘導する乳酸菌類とその成分
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4589618
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
To provide a method of obtaining and of effectively selecting a microorganism that contributes to prevention and treatment of immune diseases including allergy, autoimmune diseases and inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g., large-intestinal ulcer), and a method of efficiently inducing immunoregulatory cells that play an important role on maintaining immunological homeostasis using the microorganism or the ingredient thereof. The present invention provides a method of obtaining or of selecting a microorganism or its cellular components, which is selected from a Lactococcus and an ingredient thereof, which induce production of IL-10 from mammalian dendritic or spleen cells. The invention comprises a method of obtaining the microorganism or the ingredient thereof by co-culturing a microorganism such as Lactococcus strains with mammalian dendritic or spleen cells to select a microbial cell having a high IL-10 production ability, a method of selecting the microorganism or the ingredient thereof by co-culturing an intestinal epithelial cell with a microorganism such as the lactic acid bacteria and selecting the cells on the basis of a caspase-1 activity and the ability of inducing the production of IL-18, and a method for obtaining a food product or material and an animal feeding stuff or medical and pharmaceutical products which contain the lactic acid bacteria as an effective ingredient.
