Resumo
O surgimento da resistência antifúngica aos tratamentos convencionais tem exigido o desenvolvimento de novas modalidades terapêuticas para o tratamento da candidíase bucal. Nesse contexto, a Terapia Fotodinâmica (Photodynamic Therapy – PDT) tem sido sugerida como método alternativo para a inativação de microorganismos patogênicos. O sucesso da PDT depende, dentre outros fatores do tempo de pré-irradiação (TPI), que é o tempo em que o fotossensibilizador (FS) permanece em contato com os micro-organismos previamente à iluminação. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a efetividade da PDT mediada pela curcumina (Cur), associando diferentes TPIs, concentrações e doses de luz, na redução da viabilidade celular de três espécies de Candida ATCC (C. albicans ATCC 90028; C. glabrata ATCC 2001; C. dubliniensis ATCC 7987), em culturas planctônicas e biofilmes. A Cur foi ativada por um aparelho de LED (luz emitida por diodo) que emite luz no espectro azul, com comprimento de onda predominante de 455 nm. Inicialmente, suspensões celulares padronizadas dos micro-organismos foram transferidas para placas de 96 orifícios, e tratadas com três diferentes concentrações de Cur (5, 10 e 20 YM), ou mantidas nos poços por 48 horas para formação dos biofilmes, seguida de tratamento com outras três concentrações de Cur (20, 30 e 40 YM). As culturas celulares foram deixadas em contato com a Cur por 1, 5, 10 ou 20 minutos, anteriormente à iluminação. Em seguida, as culturas planctônicas foram expostas à dose de luz de 5,28 J/cm2. Os biofilmes, por sua vez, foram tratados com duas doses de luz (5,28 e 10,56 J/cm2). Suspensões/biofilmes adicionais foram tratados somente com as três concentrações de Cur (pelo maior tempo usado em cada estudo) ou apenas com a maior dose de luz. Amostras controle não foram tratadas com Cur e não receberam luz. Após a PDT, as suspensões celulares...
The emergence of antifungal-resistant yeasts to conventional therapy has demanded the development of new therapy modalities against oral candidiasis. On this context, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) has been suggested as a possible alternative treatment for inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms. PDT success depends, among other factors, on the pre-irradiation time (PIT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of curcumin (Cur)-mediated PDT associating different PITs, Cur concentrations and light doses, against planktonic and biofilm cultures of three different Candida species (C. albicans ATCC 90028; C. glabrata ATCC 2001; C. dubliniensis ATCC 7987). Cur was activated by a LED (light emitting diode) device, which emits light on the blue spectrum, with predominant wavelength at 455 nm. Standardized cell suspensions were treated with three different concentrations of Cur (5, 10 e 20 YM), or kept into the wells for 48 hours to allow adhesion and biofilm formation. The biofilms were treated with other three different concentrations of Cur (20, 30 e 40 YM). The cultivated fungus (planktonic and biofilms) were maintained in the dark in contact with the PS for either 1, 5, 10 or 20 minutes before irradiation. The suspensions were exposed to LED light dose of 5.28 J/cm2, while the biofilms were exposed to either 5.28, or 10.56 J/cm2. Additional samples of suspensions/biofilms were treated only with the three Cur concentrations (for the highest incubation period used in the study), without illumination, or only with the highest light dose, without Cur. Control samples had neither light nor Cur. After PDT, suspensions were plated on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) in duplicate, while biofilm results were read using the XTT-salt reduction method. The results for the planktonic cultures were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn, while for the biofilms, analysis of variance... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
