Title in Portuguese
Utilização de probióticos para o controle da prevalência de Candida oral em pacientes edentados totais
Keywords in Portuguese
Candida
Estomatite sob prótese
Lactobacillus
Probióticos
Prótese Total
Abstract in Portuguese
Probióticos são microrganismos vivos que conferem benefícios à saúde dos indivíduos, quando administrados em quantidades adequadas. Além de promoverem uma melhora no sistema gastrointestinal, os probióticos são conhecidos por sua capacidade de inibirem o crescimento de microrganismos patogênicos. O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar a influência dos probióticos na redução da prevalência de Candida oral de indivíduos usuários de próteses totais. Para realização deste estudo foi elaborado o bioproduto contendo probióticos, Lactobacillus rhamnosus e Lactobacillus acidophilus. O protocolo do estudo foi duplo-cego randomizado, sendo que os sujeitos da pesquisa foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos: experimental (probióticos) e controle (placebo). Os participantes utilizaram o produto durante cinco semanas e o resultado foi avaliado segundo a contagem de leveduras isoladas em unidades formadoras de colônias (UFC/mL), antes e após a intervenção. Paralelamente, a esta fase clínica da pesquisa, foram testadas in vitro a ação de outras cepas de Lactobacillus com a finalidade de verificar a associação entre a cepa de Lactobacillus com a redução das espécies de Candida isoladas do palato e das próteses, bem como, com a sensibilidade aos antifúngicos, miconazol e nistatina. Também foi pesquisado um dos principais mecanismos de ação contra patógenos, por Lactobacillus spp, a produção de bacteriocinas. Os resultados inferem que as cepas de probióticos testadas: foram eficazes na redução da prevalência de Candida oral de usuários de próteses totais; in vitro, inibiram o crescimento de Candida sp, sendo L. rhamnosus Lr-32 a cepa com melhor resultado e não produzem bacteriocinas quando em contato com a levedura.

Abstract in English
Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer benefits to the health of an individual when administered in adequate amounts. In addition to promoting an improvement in a gastrointestinal system, the probiotics are known for their ability to inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. The present study sought to evaluate the capacity of probiotics strains in reducing the prevalence of oral Candida in denture wearers. For this study, the by-product was elaborated containing probiotics, such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus acidophilus. The study protocol was randomized, double-blind, being that the subjects of the research were randomly sorted into two groups: experimental (probiotics) and control (placebo). The participants utilized the product daily for five weeks and the result was evaluated according to the amount of yeasts isolated in colony-forming units (CFU), before and after the intervention. In parallel to this clinical phase, the action of other Lactobacillus strains were tested in vitro, with the purpose of verifying the relation between the strain of Lactobacillus and the reduction of Candida species isolated from the palate and the prostheses, as well as, with the sensitivity to antifungal agents, miconazole and nystatin. The production of bacteriocins is one of the main mechanisms of action by Lactobacillus spp. against pathogens, and was analised. The results imply that the strains of tested probiotics: in vivo, were effective in reducing the prevalence of oral Candida for denture wearers; in vitro, inhibited the growth of Candida sp, being that L. rhamnosus Lr-32 was the best resulting strain, and the strains did not produce bacteriocins when in contact with yeast.
