PANDA STUDY Probiotics AND Allergy Primary prevention of asthma and allergy by supplementation of probiotics in early life

  • Biology
  • 2015
Exposure of pregnant women with previous or recent atopic disease, and their offspring to probiotics has been suggested, and it is likely that antigen-presenting cells (APC's) are involved, since these cells are important in the first line of defence in the gastrointestinal tract.

Perinatal probiotic supplementation in the prevention of allergy related disease: 6 year follow up of a randomised controlled trial

Maternal probiotic ingestion alone may be sufficient for long term reduction in the cumulative incidence of AD, but not other allergy related diseases.

Atopic dermatitis and skin disease A differential effect of 2 probiotics in the prevention of eczema and atopy : A double-blind , randomized , placebo-controlled trial

A double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial of infants at risk of allergic disease to determine whether probiotic supplementation in early life could prevent development of eczema and atopy at 2 years.

Probiotics: on-going research on atopic individuals

The regulatory role of probiotics in human allergic disease was first emphasised in the demonstration of a suppressive effect on lymphocyte proliferation and interleukin-4 generation in vitro, and a significant improvement in the clinical course of atopic eczema was reported in infants given a probiotic-supplemented diet.

Probiotics in the Treatment and Prevention of Allergies in Children

It is inferred that probiotics induce systemically detectable low-grade inflammation, which may explain the clinical effects and the secretion pattern of cytokines induced by PBMC, andications from studies of feces and blood at the age 6 months suggest that probiotic may enhance both inflammation and immune defence of the gut.

Probiotics in the Treatment and Prevention of Allergy in Children

Results on randomized, controlled studies in which childhood atopic eczema was treated or which aimed to prevent development of allergy during childhood are reported.

Distinct patterns of neonatal gut microflora in infants in whom atopy was and was not developing.

Differences in the neonatal gut microflora precede the development of atopy, suggesting a crucial role of the balance of indigenous intestinal bacteria for the maturation of human immunity to a nonatopic mode.

Early childhood infection and atopic disorder

Interpretation of the prediction of atopic disorders by immunisation with whole-cell pertussis vaccine and treatment with oral antibiotics needs to be very cautious because of the possibilities of confounding effects and reverse causation.
