Abstract in Portuguese
Bactérias probióticas, como Lactobacillus sp, são conhecidas como inibidoras do crescimento de microrganismos patogênicos, têm a capacidade de modificar o equilíbrio microbiológico do hospedeiro e reduzir o crescimento de patógenos, como o microoganismo Candida albicans. Para avaliar a colonização oral experimental e o seu tratamento com probióticos, 152 camundongos DBA/2 imunossuprimidos foram inoculados oralmente com uma suspensão (108 células viáveis) de C. albicans. Os animais foram divididos em 4 grupos: controle positivo (sem tratamento), tratados oralmente com nistatina, com Lactobacillus acidophilus e Lactobacillus rhamnosus. No grupo que recebeu nistatina, o tratamento foi iniciado um dia após a inoculação por Candida, já nos grupos que receberam as bactérias probióticas, os tratamentos foram iniciados 14 dias antes da inoculação. Tratamentos com nistatina e probióticos foram diários e duraram 13 dias. As avaliações foram realizadas 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 e 13 dias após a inoculação inicial e feitas através de análises microbiológicas da mucosa oral dos animais. A colonização por C. albicans iniciou-se um dia após a inoculação, sendo o aumento das unidades formadoras de colônia progressivo e significante até o sétimo dia. Após este período, observou-se uma redução significativa no isolamento de leveduras. Todos os tratamentos probióticos reduziram significativamente a colonização de C. albicans na mucosa oral dos animais, comparada com a do grupo de animais não tratados. No grupo tratado com L. rhamnosus, a redução da colonização de levedura foi significativamente maior comparado ao grupo nistatina. Concluiu-se que o modelo animal DBA/2 imunossuprimidos é um bom modelo experimental para o estudo da colonização oral e o tratamento com probióticos, no presente modelo, pode ser uma alternativa eficaz para a redução da Candida na cavidade oral.

Abstract in English
To evaluate experimental oral candidiasis and the treatment using probiotics, 152 DBA/2 mice after being immunosuppressed were orally inoculated with a suspension of C. albicans containing 108 viable cells of yeast. The animals were devided into four groups: positive control (untreated), trated oraly with nystatin, with Lactobacillus acidophilus and with Lactobacillus rhamnosus. In the group that received nystatin, the treatment was initiated one day after Candida inoculation, and in the groups that received the probiotic bacteria, the treatment began fourteen days before inoculation. Treatments with nystatin and probiotics were daily and lasted 13 days. Evaluations were performed at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13 days (after the initial inoculation) and made by microbiological analysis of the oral mucosa of these animals. The colonization of C. albicans in the oral mucosa animals began one day after the initial challenge and it was progressive and significant until the seventh day, when there was a significant reduction in the isolation of yeast. All treatments with probiotic bacteria significantly reduced the colonization of C. albicans in oral mucosa of the animals, compared to the untreated animal group. In group treated with L. rhamnosus the reduction of colonization of yeast was significantly higher compared to the group receiving nystatin. Based on the findings of this study we suggest that animal model DBA/2 immunosuppressed is a good model for experimental oral candidiasis and the treatment with probiotics in this model may be an effective alternative to the treatment of oral candidiasis.
