Mercenier et al. 2000
(preclinical studies involving experimental animals) [53] |
lactic acid bacteria (LAB): Lacto coccuslactis, Streptococcus gordonii and Lactobacillus spp
mucosal vaccines for malaria |
It has been shown that systemic and mucosal antigen-specific immune responses can be elicited in mice through the nasal route using the three LAB systems under study. |
Aldovini and Young et al. 1991
(preclinical studies involving experimental animals) [54] |
L. lactis
vaccine with the V2–V4 loop of the HIV virus |
Induced humoral and cell-mediated immune response is sufficient to provide immunity against an HIV Envexpressing vaccinia virus challenge in mice |
Isolauri et al.1995
(in infants) |
L. casei GG
oral rotavirus vaccine |
Incresed levels of rotavirus-specific serum IgA. |
de Vrese et al.2005
(in adults) [55] |
L. rhamnosus GG (LGG) or L. paracaseiCRL431
live attenuated oral poliovirus vaccine (containing serotypes 1, 2, and 3) |
Higher serum neutralizing antibodytiters to poliovirus serotypes 1 and 2 (for LGG) and to serotype 3 (CRL431). |
Davidson et al.2011
(in adults) [56] |
L. rhamnosus GG
live attenuated nasal influenza vaccine |
Increased protective hemagglutinin inhibition titers. |
Fanget al.2000
( in adults ) [60] |
L. rhamnosus GG or L. lactis
oral Salmonella typhiTy21a |
LGG stimulated S. typhi-specific IgA; L. lactis incresed CR3 receptor expression on neutriphilis. |
Chattha et al. 2013
( studies involving experimental animals) [58] |
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and Bifidobacterium lactis Bb12 (Bb12)
attenuated (Att) human rotavirus (HRV) Wa strain vaccine |
Higher mean serum IgA HRV antibody titers and intestinal IgA antibody secreting cell numbers in Att-HRV vaccinated pigs; In vaccinated pigs without col/milk, probiotic colonization did not affect IgA HRV antibody titers. |
Paineau et al.2008
(in adults) [61] |
seven different probiotic strains (B. lactisBi-07 and Bl-04, L. acidophilus La-14 and NCFM, L. plantarumLp-115, L. paracaseiLpc-37, and L. salivariusLs-33)
oral Vibrio choleravaccination |
No effect on antigen-specific IgA or IgM;
A trend towards higher cholera-specific IgG levels was observed. |
Matsuda et al. 2011 (in infants) [62] |
Bifidobacteriumbreve Ykult (BBG-01)
oral inactivated cholera vaccine |
No significant difference. |
Taylor et al. 2006
(in infants) [63] |
Lactobacillus acidophilus LAVRI-A1
allergen vaccine specific |
Reduced production of IL-5 and TGF-beta; no significant effects of probiotics on either Type 1(Th1) or Type 2 (h2) T helper cell responses to allergens or other stimuli. |
West et al. 2008
(in infants) [64] |
Lactobacillus F19 (LF19)
DTaP (diphtheria and tetanus toxoid and acellular pertussis), polio and Hib-conjugate vaccines |
No difference in days with infectious symptoms; Days with antibiotic prescriptions were fewer and enhanced anti- diphtheria toxin (D) in the LF19 group; |
Vlasovaet al. 2013(experimental animals) [59] |
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and Bifidobacterium lactis Bb12 (Bb12)
attenuated HRV and challenge with virulent human rotavirus (VirHRV) |
Selected probiotics contribute to immunomaturation, regulate immune homeostasis and modulate vaccine and virulent HRV effects, thereby moderating HRV diarrhea. |
Parenterally-administred vaccines |
Soh et al.2010
(in infants) [65] |
BifidobacteriumlongumBL999 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus LPR mix
standard three-dose hepatitis B vaccination schedule |
