Some individual bacterial strains that influence the immune system [47].

Strain	Effect
L. casei Shirota	Induced IL-12 production
Heat-killed L. casei and L. fermentum	Induced TNF-𝛼 production
L. paracasei Ncc2461	Induced CD4^+ T-cells to produce IL-10 and TGF-𝛽
L. rhamnosus GG with LPS	Inhibited TNF-𝛼, but not IL-10
L. reuteri + L. brevis	Induced TNF-𝛼, IL-2, IL-1𝛽
L. rhamnasus + L. acidophilus + B. lactic	Enhanced immunoreactivity of spleen cells and phagocytes
L. acidophilis + L. delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus + B. bifidum	Produced an anti-inflammatory response
L. casei Shirota	Inhibited translocation of NF-𝜅B and production of IL-6

L., Lactobacillus; B., Bifidobacterium.
