By using a mouse model, Yanbo Wang and co‐workers demonstrate that probiotic Lactobacillus casei Zhang (LcZ) alleviates shrimp tropomyosin‐induced food allergy via maintaining epithelia stability and immune cell homeostasis, which was mediated by NF‐κB signaling. The study, described in article 1900496, suggests LcZ to be a promising immunomodulator and immunotherapy assistor, especially for food allergy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
