Bilginaylar K, Melahat Donmezer C, Ozer Sehirli A. In vitro studies support clinical trials showing platelet-rich fibrin-mediated local delivery of antibiotics improves outcomes in impacted mandibular third molar surgery. J Drug Target 2024:1-12. [PMID: 39169888 DOI: 10.1080/1061186x.2024.2396355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2024] [Revised: 08/08/2024] [Accepted: 08/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024]
Abstract
Our previous clinical observations showed that platelet rich fibrin (PRF) can be used to deliver antibiotics to attenuate postoperative complications after unilaterally impacted mandibular third molar surgery (IMTMS). In order to begin understanding the mechanism involved in the beneficial in vivo effects of PRF-mediated delivery of antibiotics, in vitro studies were performed, which showed that PRF preparations containing amoxicillin/clavulanic acid or clindamycin significantly inhibited the growth of S. aureus bacteria. In our previous study, comparisons were made between control and treated groups. However, since variations among individual patients could possibly affect the results, the current study included patients with bilaterally symmetric impacted mandibular third molars, allowing us to compare control and antibiotic treatment within each patient. The effects of PRF preparations containing amoxicillin/clavulanic acid or clindamycin on IMTMS was tested in 60 clinical cases. Antibiotic-injected PRF treatment after bilaterally IMTMS resulted in significantly reduced pain, less use of analgesics, and reduced swelling and trismus compared to the control group (PRF without antibiotics) confirming our previous results after unilaterally IMTMS. The in vitro results support the hypothesis that in vivo delivery of antibiotics using PRF produces therapeutic effects after IMTMS by attenuating bacterial infection and inflammation.

Ananda N, Julia V, Bachtiar EW. Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 Inhibition of Biofilm Formation by Prevotella intermedia and Fusobacterium nucleatum Across Salivary pH: An In Vitro Study. Eur J Dent 2024. [PMID: 38942052 DOI: 10.1055/s-0044-1786846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 06/30/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938's antibiofilm effects on Prevotella intermedia and Fusobacterium nucleatum, common causes of alveolar osteitis. It seeks topical alternatives to prevent this condition posttooth extraction. The secondary objective is to assess these effects under different pH conditions (pH 4.5 and pH 7), mimicking oral cavity saliva pH dynamics. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ethical approval was secured for the saliva collection process involving five healthy adult participants who had undergone wisdom tooth extraction. Saliva samples were diligently collected on the 7th day post-surgery. The unstimulated saliva underwent a series of treatments, including the addition of phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), pH adjustments, centrifugation, and filtration. The pH levels were re-measured, and subsequent adjustments were made to achieve pH values of 4.5 or 7. Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938, with a concentration of 1×108 colony-forming units (CFU) per 5 drops, was utilized in the study. Biofilm testing involved incubating saliva samples with varying pH (4.5 or 7) alongside bacterial suspensions (Prevotella intermedia, Fusobacterium nucleatum, or a mixed species). The Interlac suspension was introduced, and plates were anaerobically incubated for 24 hours. Biofilm results were obtained using a spectrometer. The test is conducted in triplicate. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS To scrutinize the impact of pH on biofilm development, the acquired data underwent a two-way ANOVA test in SPSS as part of the statistical analysis. A significance level of p<0.05 was used to determine statistical significance. RESULTS Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 significantly reduced biofilm formation across bacterial strains (p = 0.000). Statistical analysis indicated a significant impact of pH on biofilm development (p = 0.000) compared to no saliva samples, with higher formation observed under acidic conditions (pH 4.5). However, the pH levels of 4.5 and 7 did not result in significantly different bacterial biofilm formation (p = 0.529). CONCLUSION This research highlights Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938's potency in inhibiting biofilm formation of Prevotella intermedia and Fusobacterium nucleatum. Salivary pH variations significantly influence biofilm development, emphasizing the need to consider pH when assessing probiotic effectiveness. Despite limitations in saliva sample sterilization, this study provides valuable insights into alternative approaches for preventing alveolar osteitis. Further research should explore clinical applications and refine sterilization methods for more accurate results.

Abstract
Wound infections caused by opportunistic bacteria promote persistent infection and represent the main cause of delayed healing. Probiotics are acknowledged for their beneficial effects on the human body and could be utilized in the management of various diseases. They also possess the capacity to accelerate wound healing, due to their remarkable anti-pathogenic, antibiofilm, and immunomodulatory effects. Oral and topical probiotic formulations have shown promising openings in the field of dermatology, and there are various in vitro and in vivo models focusing on their healing mechanisms. Wound dressings embedded with prebiotics and probiotics are now prime candidates for designing wound healing therapeutic approaches to combat infections and to promote the healing process. The aim of this review is to conduct an extensive scientific literature review regarding the efficacy of oral and topical probiotics in wound management, as well as the potential of wound dressing embedding pre- and probiotics in stimulating the wound healing process.

Abstract
The efficient management of skin wounds for rapid and scarless healing represents a major clinical unmet need. Nonhealing skin wounds and undesired scar formation impair quality of life and result in high healthcare expenditure worldwide. The skin-colonizing microbiota contributes to maintaining an intact skin barrier in homeostasis, but it also participates in the pathogenesis of many skin disorders, including aberrant wound healing, in many respects. This review focuses on the composition of the skin microbiome in cutaneous wounds of different types (i.e. acute and chronic) and with different outcomes (i.e. nonhealing and hypertrophic scarring), mainly based on next-generation sequencing analyses; furthermore, we discuss the mechanistic insights into host-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions during wound healing. Finally, we highlight potential therapeutic strategies that target the skin microbiome to improve healing outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This narrative review article comprehensively explains the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA) pain perception, how the gut microbiota is correlated with it, possible molecular pathways involved in probiotics-mediated OA pain reduction, limitations in the current research approaches, and future perspectives. RECENT FINDINGS The initiation and progression of OA, including the development of chronic pain, is intricately associated with activation of the innate immune system and subsequent inflammatory responses. Trauma, lifestyle (e.g., obesity and metabolic disease), and chronic antibiotic treatment can disrupt commensal homeostasis of the human microbiome, thereby affecting intestinal integrity and promoting leakage of bacterial endotoxins and metabolites such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS) into circulation. Increased level of LPS is associated with knee osteophyte severity and joint pain. Both preclinical and clinical studies strongly suggest that probiotics may benefit patients with OA pain through positive gut microbiota modulation and attenuating low-grade inflammation via multiple pathways. Patent data also suggests increased interest in the development of new innovations that involve probiotic use for reducing OA and joint pain. Recent data suggest that probiotics are attracting more and more attention for OA pain management. The advancement of knowledge in this area may pave the way for developing different probiotic strains that can be used to support joint health, improve treatment outcomes in OA, and reduce the huge impact of the disease on healthcare systems worldwide.

Abstract
CONTEXT A bidirectional relationship between gut microbiota (GM) and circadian rhythms has been proposed. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the efficacy of probiotic or prebiotic intervention on sleep quality and quantity. DATA SOURCES A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted using the databases PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Only randomized clinical trials written in English or Spanish were considered. DATA EXTRACTION The initial search resulted in 219 articles. Following the removal of duplicates and consideration of the selection criteria, 25 articles were selected for the systematic review and 18 articles for the meta-analysis. DATA ANALYSIS Microbiota modulation was not demonstrated to be associated with significant improvement in sleep quality in the present meta-analysis (P = 0.31). In terms of sleep duration, the meta-analysis found no improvement due to GM modulation (P = 0.43). CONCLUSION The results of this meta-analysis indicate that there is still insufficient evidence to support the relationship between GM modulation and improved sleep quality. While several studies assume that including probiotics in the diet will undoubtedly improve sleep quality, more research is needed to fully understand this phenomenon.

Abstract
Objectives In this study, it was aimed to investigate the possible effects of oral chewable probiotic tablets (PTs) produced to directly support the oral flora on the proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and human gingival fibroblast cells (HGFCs). Materials and Methods For analysis in this study, "Motiflor AS," a PT that dissolves in the mouth, containing 13.5mg Lactobacillus helveticus Rosell-52, L. rhamnosus Rosell-11, L. halivarus HA-118, and Bifidobacterium longum Rosell-175 was used. Cell survival and proliferation were analyzed by methyl-thiazole-diphenyl-tetrazolium (MTT) test and real-time cell analysis method (xCELLigence RTCA-DP) after 24-, 48-, and 72-h incubation periods. Results According to the data obtained with RTCA-DP software, there was a significant increase in the proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells (HDPSCs) and HGFCs in the 72-h incubation after PT application compared to the 24-h and 48-h incubations (P < 0.0001). After the MTT test, for HDPSCs, the cell proliferation rate was 62.8% and 85.6% in 24- and 48-h incubation, respectively, while HDPSCs cell proliferation rate in 72-h incubation was 135.2% (P < 0.0001). For HGFCs, the cell proliferation rate was 73% and 120.4% in 24- and 48-h incubation, respectively, while HDPSCs cell proliferation rate in 72-h incubation was 139.8% (P < 0.0001). When the results of the two tests applied were evaluated together, the results showed compatibility. Conclusions Based on the results, it has been concluded that PT will be useful for maintaining oral health and for dental and gingival patients who will/have undergone dental treatment. It should be keep in mind that protecting our oral and dental health is very important in terms of protecting our general health.

Abstract
Dental implantation is currently the optimal solution for tooth loss. However, the health and stability of dental implants have emerged as global public health concerns. Dental implant placement, healing of the surgical site, osseointegration, stability of bone tissues, and prevention of peri-implant diseases are challenges faced in achieving the long-term health and stability of implants. These have been ongoing concerns in the field of oral implantation. Probiotics, as beneficial microorganisms, play a significant role in the body by inhibiting pathogens, promoting bone tissue homeostasis, and facilitating tissue regeneration, modulating immune-inflammatory levels. This review explores the potential of probiotics in addressing post-implantation challenges. We summarize the existing research regarding the importance of probiotics in managing dental implant health and advocate for further research into their potential applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Probiotics have gained considerable attention as intervention for various conditions in dentistry. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the current literature on the efficacy of probiotic supplements for alleviating symptoms after tooth extractions and third molar surgery. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We searched the PubMed and Google Scholar databases up to October 15, 2021 using pertinent keywords to retrieve relevant literature. Based on abstracts, the authors reviewed the full text papers, extracted key outcome data, and assessed the risk of bias. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Four articles based on three RCT's were included of which three allowed compilation. There were no beneficial effects on the occurrence of postoperative infections or alveolitis, but we disclosed a significant trend towards less self-reported pain one week after the tooth extractions (RD -0.22; 95% CI -0.33; -0.11; P<0.05). Findings concerning swelling, discomfort and use of painkillers were inconsistent. CONCLUSIONS Probiotic supplements may offer clinical benefits within oral surgery, such as alleviating pain after tooth extractions. However, the certainty of these findings was very low due to risk of bias, heterogeneity, and inconsistencies across the studies. Further and larger investigations are required to strengthen the level of evidence.

Abstract
The use of probiotics is one of the emerging lines of treatment for wound healing. This systematic review aimed to summarize currently available evidence on the effect of oral or enteral probiotic therapy on skin or oral mucosal wound healing in humans. To verify the developments in this field and the level of available scientific evidence, we applied a broad search strategy with no restrictions on wound type, target population, probiotic strain, or intervention protocol used. This review included seven studies involving 348 individuals. Four studies reported positive outcomes for healing improvement after probiotic therapy, and none of the studies reported adverse effects or a marked increase in wound healing time. The positive or neutral results observed do not generate strong evidence regarding the effectiveness of probiotics for wound healing. However, they suggest a promising field for future clinical research where the probiotic strains used, type of wounds, and target population are controlled for.

A cross-sectional study among German and international oral and maxillofacial surgeons and dental practitioners with review of the literature. Oral Maxillofac Surg 2021; 26:563-573.

Abstract
PURPOSE For prevention of wound-healing complications, patients in German-speaking countries are traditionally advised to avoid consumption of milk and dairy products after oral surgery. In the absence of national and international guidelines, this study investigates scientific evidence and compares international practice, frequency scale, and rationale behind such recommendation. METHODS Comparison of a German cross-sectional mono-center-questionnaire pilot study and a survey among international oral and maxillofacial surgeons (OMFS), specialized oral surgeons and general dentists, evaluating international practice regarding post-operative dietary and nutrition recommendations. Our literature review further assessed scientific evidence for relevant effects of probiotics, prebiotics, and/or synbiotics. RESULTS Among German study participants, 56% (n = 64/114) advise patients to avoid milk and dairy products, with 42% of OMFS (n = 38) and 65% (n = 76) of the general dentists recommending abstention (p = .027). In striking contrast, such recommendation could not be identified in our international survey (n = 143) (t test, p < .001) nor in the literature. There were significant differences between German and international study participants regarding the rationale for dietary recommendations, with dental schools and literature most frequently indicated as sources (Fisher's exact test, p < .001). CONCLUSION The hypothesis of a harmful effect of the consumption of milk and dairy products after dentoalveolar surgery could not be supported by evidence. The recommendation to avoid dairy products post-surgery was identified as a specific phenomenon practiced almost exclusively in German-speaking countries. Corresponding recommendations, most probably based on a now irrelevant risk of contracting tuberculosis from milk products, can at present no longer be substantiated.

Probiotics improve re-epithelialization of scratches infected by Porphyromonas gingivalis through up-regulating CXCL8-CXCR1/CXCR2 axis. Anaerobe 2021; 72:102458. [PMID: 34547426 DOI: 10.1016/j.anaerobe.2021.102458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis inhibits the release of CXCL8 by gingival epithelial cells and reduces their proliferation. We previously reported that Bifidocaterium sp. and Lactobacillus sp. immunomodulate gingival epithelial cells response to this periodontal pathogen, but their effects on re-epithelialization properties are still unknown. Herein we explored these activities of potential probiotics on gingival epithelial cells and clarified their mechanisms. The immortalized OBA-9 lineage was used to perform in vitro scratches. Twelve clinical isolates and commercially available strains of Bifidobacterium sp. and Lactobacillus sp. were screened. L. casei 324 m and B. pseudolongum 1191A were selected to perform mechanistic assays with P. gingivalis W83 infection and the following parameters were measured: percentage of re-epithelialization by DAPI immunofluorescence area measurement; cell number by Trypan Blue exclusion assay; CXCL8 regulation by ELISA and RT-qPCR; and expression of CXCL8 cognate receptors-CXCR1 and CXCR2 by Flow Cytometry. Complementary mechanistic assays were performed with CXCL8, in the presence or absence of the CXCR1/CXCR2 inhibitor-reparixin. L. casei 324 m and B. pseudolongum 1191A enhanced re-epithelialization/cell proliferation as well as inhibited the harmful effects of P. gingivalis W83 on these activities through an increase in the expression and release of CXCL8 and in the number of cells positive for CXCR1/CXCR2. Further, we revealed that the beneficial effects of these potential probiotics were dependent on activation of the CXCL8-CXCR1/CXCR2 axis. The current findings indicate that these potential probiotics strains may improve wound healing in the context of the periodontal tissues by a CXCL8 dependent mechanism.

Bourdillon AT, Edwards HA. Review of probiotic use in otolaryngology. Am J Otolaryngol 2021; 42:102883. [PMID: 33453564 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjoto.2020.102883] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2020] [Accepted: 12/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Probiotics have garnered considerable attention as an intervention for various conditions common to otolaryngology. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the current literature to offer recommendations about the safety and efficacy of probiotic management in otolaryngologic conditions. STUDY DESIGN Narrative review. METHODS PubMed and Google Scholar were queried using pertinent keywords to retrieve relevant studies with particular focus in the recent 5 years. All abstracts were assessed and studies, reviews and meta-analyses achieving evaluation of probiotic therapies or characterization of microbiome changes were included for further review. Studies were categorized by condition or anatomic region across various subspecialties. Key data parameters were extracted and evaluated across studies and treatment types. RESULTS Strong evidence exists for the use probiotic agents to improve symptoms for allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis and certain dental conditions. Despite promising results, further investigation is needed to evaluate and optimize probiotic delivery for mitigating otitis media, oropharyngeal inflammation and upper respiratory tract infections. Preclinical studies suggest that probiotics may potentially offer benefit for voice prosthesis maintenance, wound healing and mitigation of oral dysplasia. CONCLUSION Probiotic therapies may offer clinical benefit in a variety of contexts within the field of otolaryngology, especially for short-term relief of certain inflammatory conditions of the oral cavity, auditory and nasal cavities. Further investigation is warranted for evaluation of long-term outcomes and pathogenic deterrence.
