Anti-inflammatory potential of Lactobacillus reuteri LM1071 via eicosanoid regulation in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells.

Lactobacillus reuteri is one of the crucial bacteria for food fermentation. It can be found in the gastrointestinal system of human and animals. Several studies have shown that L. reuteri has valuable effects on host health. The current study firstly demonstrated that L. reuteri has a beneficial effect on the inflammation containing the variation of eicosanoids (PGE1 and PGE2) which are one of the most important biomarkers and moreover eicosanoid-associated genes as well as proteins (COX-2).
