Inhibition of Streptococcus mutans Biofilm Formation by the Joint Action of Oxyresveratrol and Lactobacillus casei.
Microbial dysbiosis in dental plaque contributes to the occurrence of dental caries, to which Streptococcus mutans is a major contributor. Lactobacillus casei can be used as probiotic therapy to treat caries by replacing S. mutans within the dental plaque. However, the effects of probiotic treatment are not always stable. Oxyresveratrol (ORV), a plant-derived polyphenol, displays opposite effects in that it inhibits cariogenic and promotes commensal bacteria. Thus, the objectives of this study are to investigate the effects of ORV on bacterial proportions in S. mutans Topics: Biofilms; Dental Caries; Dental Plaque; Glucans; Humans; Lacticaseibacillus casei; Plant Extracts; Polyphenols; Stilbenes; Streptococcus mutans; Water | 2022 |
Effects of the natural compound, oxyresveratrol, on the growth of Streptococcus mutans, and on biofilm formation, acid production, and virulence gene expression.
Streptococcus mutans is one of the major pathogens of dental caries. Oxyresveratrol, a natural compound found in plants, exerts inhibitory effects on many bacterial species but its effect on S. mutans is unknown. The objective of this study was to clarify the antibacterial effect of oxyresveratrol on S. mutans, including effects on basic viability, acidogenicity, acidurity, and extracellular polysaccharide synthesis. The expression of nine genes that encode virulence and protective factors in S. mutans was measured by qRT-PCR. Oxyresveratrol showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on survival of S. mutans.
