The effects of Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain NTM048 and type strain JCM6124(T) on the murine immune system were characterized. Although the bacterial cells and exopolysaccharides of each strain induced immunoglobulin A production in Peyer's patch cells, the effects of NTM048 were more potent than those of JCM6124(T). Oral administration of the cells of each strain increased the fecal immunoglobulin A content in NTM048-treated mice, but not in JCM6124(T)-treated mice. A flow cytometric analysi ...[more]
