Fig. 1. Anti-allergic activity of LP22A3 in OVA-induced allergic mice.
479
LP22A3 (1 ×108 cfu/mouse/day) were orally administered to BALB/c mice for 17 days.
26
480
mice were sensitized with 10 μg OVA + 1 mg Al(OH)3 adjuvant dissolved in 300 μL
481
phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) by intraperitoneal injection. The sensitizations were
482
continued once every 5 days for 2 more times. Five days after the last intraperitoneal
483
sensitization, mice were challenged with OVA by intravenous injection with 3 μg OVA
484
dissolved in 100 μL PBS to trigger an allergy response. (A) Experimental design. Total
485
IgE (B), OVA specific IgE (C), and TGF-β (D) contents were measured by ELISA. Values
486
represent means ± SD (n = 6). Items with different letter were significantly different (p
487
< 0.05).

Fig. 3. Effect of LP22A3 administration on DNCB-induced atopic mice
494
Mice were orally administered with LP22A3 (1 x 108 cfu/mouse/day) or prednisolone (3
495
mg/mouse/day) for 7 weeks. DNCB was applied to the dorsal skin to induce AD lesions.
496
DNCB (1%, 200 µl) in the mixture of acetone and ethanol (2:3, v/v) was applied. After
497
the first application, 0.5% DNCB (150 µl) in the mixture (acetone:Olive oil = 3:1) was
27
498
applied once every two days for 3 weeks. Mice were orally administrated with
499
LP22A3(1×108 cfu/day) dissolved in 100 μl 0.5% CMC solution. (A) Experimental
500
design. (B) Total IgE contents were measured by ELISA. (C) The TEWL values were
501
measured using a Tewameter TM300. (D) Changes in atopic dermatitis symptoms at the
502
dorsal skin lesion on week 0, 3 and 7. (E) Change in skin epidermal thickness elicited by
503
DNCB. Values represent means ± SD (n = 4). Items with different letter were

LP22A3 (1 x 108 cfu/mL) was applied into apical side of Caco-2/RBL-2H3 cells after (A)
509
and before (B) the sensitization of anti DNP-IgE antibody. Values represent means ±

RBL-2H3 cells were sensitized with anti DNP-IgE (1 μg/mL) for 2 h, and then TGF-β
517
(50, 100 pg/ml) was added and incubated for another 6 h. The cells were collected and
518
the amount of IgE bound to RBL-2H3 cells was measured by Western blotting. Values

represent means ± SD (n = 3).
