“…They produce larger amounts of IFN-g than normal T cells and increase proportionally with age possibly to compensate for the immunosenescence in the elderly [42]. A decrease in the proportion of natural killer cell markers was observed in people with suboptimal immune status resulting from smoking, malnourishment, and exhaustive exercise, mental or physical stress [33,[42][43][44]. Thus, the finding of elevated CD57 1 expression in the healthy subjects indicates immune system stimulation and may lead to a lower incidence or duration of infections.…”

“…Using an academic examination stress as a triggering factor, Marcos et al (33) reported a significant change in the blood concentration of lymphocytes and CD56 cells in the probiotic group as compared to the control one. Pujol et al (34) reported a significantly smaller decrease of blood natural killer cells induced by an intense cycling test in the probiotic group as compared to the control group after 1 month of daily intake of a large amount of fermented milk. Some probiotics may also change the functionality of circulating immune blood cells, such as monocytes.…”

Probiotics, defined as living micro-organisms that provide a health benefit to the host when ingested in adequate amounts, have been used traditionally as food components to help the body to recover from diarrhoea. They are commonly ingested as part of fermented foods, mostly in fresh fermented dairy products. They can interact with the host through different components of the gut defence systems. There is mounting clinical evidence that some probiotics, but not all, help the defence of the host as demonstrated by either a shorter duration of infections or a decrease in the host's susceptibility to pathogens. Different components of the gut barrier can be involved in the strengthening of the body's defences: the gut microbiota, the gut epithelial barrier and the immune system. Many studies have been conducted in normal free-living subjects or in subjects during common infections like the common cold and show that some probiotic-containing foods can improve the functioning of or strengthen the body's defence. Specific probiotic foods can be included in the usual balanced diet of consumers to help them to better cope with the daily challenges of their environment.
