Airway epithelial cells are a major site of airway inflammation and may play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Diesel particulate matter (DPM) is associated with mucus hypersecretion and airway inflammation and has been reported to overexpress airway mucin in the NCI-H292 airway epithelial cells. Therefore, regulation of mucin hypersecretion is essential for developing novel anti-inflammatory agents. This study aimed to investigate the effects of cell-free supernatant (CFS) from Lactobacillus and Streptococcus on nitro oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 and proteins associated with mucus production in NCI-H292 cells. We observed that NO production was reduced by CFS from Lactobacillus and Streptococcus in RAW 264.7, and MUC4 , MUC5AC , and MUC5B gene expression was increased by phosphorylation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65 and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in DPM-stimulated NCI-H292 cells. However, CFS from L. paracasei MG4272, MG4577, L. gasseri MG4247, and S. thermophilus MG5140 inhibited mRNA expression related to mucus production by downregulating the CREB/NfκB signaling pathway. These results suggest that CFS from L. paracasei MG4272, MG4577, L. gasseri MG4247, and S. thermophilus MG5140 can contribute as a strategic candidate to the prevention of airway inflammatory diseases caused by DPM.
