“…Although several in vitro and in vivo experimental studies indicate that their protective activity is associated with the induction of Th1 or T regulatory responses [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22], the immunological mechanisms responsible for the immunomodulatory and, in particular, the anti-allergic effects of probiotic bacteria are still not completely defined. In particular, the combined effects of mixtures of different species of probiotic bacteria have been only in part explored in suitable animal models to better understand the in vivo processes that modulate allergy responses.…”
