Probiotic yeasts: Anti-inflammatory potential of various non-pathogenic strains in experimental colitis in mice

Figure 1 Dose-dependent cytokine production in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), stimulated with bacterial reference strains and 3 yeast strains at distinct multiplicity levels of infection [multiplicity levels of infection (MOI) 0. 1, 1 and 5 yeasts/cells] for 24 h. Cytokine levels were analyzed in supernatants by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Panels A, B, C and D respectively show results for interleukin (IL)-10, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), IL-12 p70 and interferon γ (IFNγ), respectively. Results are expressed in pg/mL, mean ± SE, n = 3 distinct donors.
