ABSTRACT
Food allergy is a pathological condition caused by a disruption of oral tolerance. This condition leads to a pro-inflammatory environment that culminates in symptoms that varies from abdominal pain to anaphylaxis and death. The gold standard treatment consists of removing the food that triggers the allergy from diet. However, this conduct can cause nutritional impairment and social restrictions. Therefore, the need for new treatment strategies is notorious. In this context, probiotics are investigated due to their immunomodulatory mechanisms. Therefore, the objective of the present work is to investigate the probiotic potential of a mixture of four probiotic strains (Probiatop®) in an in vivo model of food allergy to ovalbumin (OVA). Our results demonstrated that oral administration of Probiatop® attenuated weight loss and diminished significantly anti-OVA IgE and IgG1 levels. Furthermore, it mitigated proximal jejunum injury, neutrophil recruitment and local IL17 levels. In addition, the probiotic mixture modulated positively the gut microbiota composition by decreasing the levels and frequency of Staphylococcus and yeast. In summary, our data suggest that Probiatop® has the potential to alleviate important symptoms of IgE-mediated food allergy, suggesting its probiotic potential as an adjuvant in the treatment of ovalbumin food allergy.
