Potencial antimicrobiano de extratos glicólicos vegetais sobre bactérias anaeróbias

Abstract

A resistência microbiana aos antibióticos disponíveis é preocupação constante, devido à dificuldade no tratamento de infecções causadas por cepas resistentes, em decorrência do uso indiscriminado de antimicrobianos. Assim, a busca por terapias antimicrobianas alternativas tem sido crescente e necessária, sendo a fitoterapia umas das opções de escolha. O objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar a atividade antibacteriana de extratos glicólicos de Achyrocline satureioides (macela), Cynara scolymus (alcachofra), Hamamelis virginiana (hamamelis) e Persea americana (abacateiro), pelos períodos de 5 min e 24 h de exposição sobre bactérias anaeróbias Fusobacterium nucleatum subsp. nucleatum, Parvimonas micra, Porphyromonas endodontalis e Porphyromonas gingivalis, em culturas planctônica e biofilmes. As bactérias armazenadas a -80ºC foram ativadas em caldo Brucella enriquecido (hemina 1%, menadiona 1% e sangue de carneiro desfibrinado 5%) e incubadas em câmara de anaerobiose por 48 h a 37ºC por sete dias. A partir de culturas puras, o teste de microdiluição em caldo foi conduzido em microplacas por meio de suspensões bacterianas padronizadas em solução fisiológica estéril (NaCl 0,9%) e diluições dos extratos em caldo, sendo as placas incubadas por 48 h a 37ºC em anaerobiose. Alíquotas de cada poço foram semeadas em ágar Brucella enriquecido. Após incubação, a Concentração Inibitória Mínima (CIM) e Concentração Bactericida Mínima (CBM) foram determinadas. As concentrações efetivas de cada extrato foram aplicadas sobre os biofilmes de cada espécie, formados em microplacas a partir de suspensões bacterianas puras padronizadas na escala 0,5 de McFarland. As microplacas foram incubadas por sete dias a 37ºC para formação dos biofilmes, sendo o meio trocado a cada 48 h. Os biofilmes foram tratados por 5 min e 24 h. Em seguida, foram lavados e desprendidos por homogeneizador ultrassônico. As suspensões diluídas foram adicionadas em ágar Brucella enriquecido. Após 48 h, as Unidades Formadoras de Colônia por mililitro (UFC/mL) foram determinadas. Os resultados foram analisados por ANOVA e teste de Tukey ou por Kruskal-Wallis e teste Dunns, ambos com nível de significância de 5% (p≤0,05). Sobre as culturas planctônicas, a CIM e CBM dos extratos foi determinada apenas para F. nucleatum. A CBM dos extratos de A. satureioides, C. scolymus e P. americana foi obtida sobre P. micra. Não foi obtida atividade bactericida para P. endodontalis e P. gingivalis. Sobre biofilmes, todas as espécies apresentaram reduções significativas quando expostas aos extratos em ambos os tempos. Pode-se concluir que os extratos testados apresentaram efeito bacteriostático sobre F. nucleatum. Atividade bactericida dos extratos foi observada sobre F. nucleatum, bem como sobre P. micra, exceto para H. virginiana. Os extratos avaliados também apresentaram efeito antibiofilme sobre F. nucleatum, P. micra, P. endodontalis e P. gingivalis por 5 min e 24 h de exposição.

Microbial resistance to antibiotics available is constant concern, due to the difficulty in treating infections caused by resistant strains as a result of the indiscriminate use of antimicrobials. Thus, the search for antimicrobial alternative therapies has been growing and necessary, being one option the herbal medicine. The objective of the present study was to analyze the antibacterial activity to Achyrocline satureioides glycolic extracts (macela), Cynara scolymus (artichoke), Hamamelis virginiana (Witch-Hazel) and Persea americana (avocado), for periods of 5 min and 24 h from exhibition on anaerobic bacteria Fusobacterium nucleatum subsp. nucleatum, Parvimonas micra, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Porphyromonas endodontalis in planktonic communities and biofilms. Bacteria stored at -80°C have been activated in Brucella broth enriched (hemin 1%, menadione 1% and defibrinated sheep blood 5%) and incubated in anaerobiose chamber for 48 h at 37° C for seven days. From pure cultures, the microdiluição test in broth was conducted in microplates through standardized bacterial suspensions in sterile saline solution (NaCl 0.9%) and dilution of the extracts in broth, being incubated plates for 48 h at 37° C in anaerobiosis. Aliquots of each well were sown in Brucella agar enriched. After incubation, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) were determined. Effective concentrations of each extract were applied on the biofilms of each species, formed in microplates from pure bacterial suspensions in 0.5 McFarland scale standard. The microplates were incubated for 7 days at 37°C for the formation of biofilms, being the culture medium replaced every 48 h. Biofilms were treated for 5 min and 24 h have been washed and given off by ultrasonic homogenizer. Dilute suspensions were added in Brucella agar enriched. After 48 h, the Colony Forming Units per milliliter (CFU/ml) were determined. The results were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test, or Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunns, both with a significance level of 5% (p ≤ 0.05). On the planktonic cultures, CIM and CBM of extracts was determined only to F. nucleatum. The CBM of the extracts of A. satureioides, C. scolymus and P. americana was obtained on P. micra. Bactericidal activity was not obtained for P. endodontalis and P. gingivalis. About biofilms, all species exhibited significant reductions when exposed to the extracts in both times. It can be concluded that the extracts tested showed bacteriostatic effect on F. nucleatum. Bactericidal activity of extracts was observed on F. nucleatum and P. micra, except for H. virginiana. The extracts evaluated also presented antibiofilme effect on F. nucleatum, P. micra, P. endodontalis and P. gingivalis for 5 min and 24 h.
