Our study aims to evaluate the effects of<jats:italic>Lactobacillus rhamnosus<\/jats:italic>GG (LGG) administration on CMA development using whole cow's milk proteins (CMP) sensitized Balb\/C mice by two different sensitization methods.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>LGG supplemented mice were either sensitized orally with CMP and cholera toxin B-subunit (CTB) as adjuvant, or intraperitoneally (IP) with CMP but without the adjuvant. Mice were then orally challenged with CMP and allergic responses were accessed by monitoring hypersensitivity scores, measuring the levels of CMP-specific immunoglobulins (IgG1, IgG2a and IgG) and total IgE from sera, and cytokines (IL-4 and IFN-\u03b3) from spleen lysates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Sensitization to CMP was successful only in IP sensitized mice, but not in orally sensitized mice with CMP and CTB.

LGG supplementation favourably modulated immune reactions by shifting Th2-dominated trends toward Th1-dominated responses in CMP sensitized mice. Our results also suggest that oral sensitization by the co-administration of CMP and CTB, as adjuvant, might not be appropriate to induce CMA in mice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1710-1492-7-20","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,6]],"date-time":"2011-12-06T19:25:38Z","timestamp":1323199538000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":45,"title":["Effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG supplementation on cow's milk allergy in a mouse model"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Cin L","family":"Thang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bushansingh","family":"Baurhoo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joyce I","family":"Boye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Benjamin K","family":"Simpson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"308_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"56","DOI":"10.1016\/S1081-1206(10)62124-2","volume":"89","author":"SL Bahna","year":"2002","unstructured":"Bahna SL: Cow's milk allergy versus cow milk intolerance.
