Yeast Fermentate Prebiotic Ameliorates Allergic Asthma, Associating with Inhibiting Inflammation and Reducing Oxidative Stress Level through Suppressing Autophagy.

ABSTRACT:

Methods

Ovalbumin was used to induce allergic asthma following administration of YFP for one week in mice, to collect the lung tissues, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BLFA), and feces. The pathological state, tight-junction proteins, inflammatory and oxidative stress-associated biomarkers, and TLRs/NF-κB signaling pathway of the lung tissues were evaluated by HE staining, immunofluorescence, ELISA, and WB, separately. RT-PCR was used to test oxidative stress-associated genes. Leukocyte counts of BLFA and intestinal microbiota were also analyzed using a hemocytometer and 16S rDNA-sequencing, separately.

Result

YFP ameliorated the lung injury of the mouse asthma model by inhibiting peribronchial and perivascular infiltrations of eosinophils and increasing tight-junction
