Abstract

This invention provides an IFN inducer comprising, as an active ingredient, lactic acid bacteria and capable of inducing IFN production, an immunopotentiating agent or prophylactic agent against virus infection comprising such inducer, and a food or drink product comprising such IFN inducer and having IFN-inducing activity, immunopotentiating activity, or prophylactic activity against virus infection. The agent for inducing IFN production comprises, as active ingredients, lactic acid bacteria that can activate plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and promote IFN production, such asNBRC100934,subsp.JCM16167,subsp.NBRC100676,subsp.JCM1180,subsp.JCM11040,subsp.NBRC12007,subsp.NRIC1150,subsp.JCM5805,subsp.JCM20101,NBRC12455,NRIC1540,JCM5886, orTA-45.
