Measurement of chemokines in DCs through an epithelial layer after exposure to L. paracasei , Salmonella or a combination of the two. The production of MCP-1/CCL2 (Panel A), MIP-1α/CCL3 (Panel B), RANTES/CCL5 (Panel C), MDC/CCL22 (Panel D) and IP-10/CXCL10 (Panel E) was measured. DCs and Caco-2 cells were incubated for 4 h with the live probiotic L. paracasei or its supernatant, Salmonella or both and further incubated for 20 h in medium containing antibiotics. The culture supernatants were collected, and the cytokine levels were determined by immunoassay. The data shown are the mean and SEM of the values obtained in three different experiments. *, p<0.05 compared with controls; #, p<0.05 compared with S.typhi; N.D. indicates not detected.
