Abstract

Background: The use of Lactobacillus probiotics may confer beneficial effects on an individual's health, such as the ability to act against fungi of the genus Candida. There are about 200 species of those yeasts, and they can develop candidiasis infections, which affect about 75% of adult women.

Objective: This study aimed to raise articles that investigated the potential action of several Lactobacillus strains in front of Candida species.

Methods: For this review, 15 articles published between 2015 and 2020 were studied.

Results: The results showed the Lactobacillus species L. paracasei, L. acidophilus, L. helveticus, L. rhamnosus, L. reuteri, and L. gasseri have the potential action to inhibit the growth and quantity of colony-forming units of Candida species in vitro studies. Further, they can reduce the rate of candidiasis recurrence and increase the cure rate, mainly when associated with traditional pharmacotherapy, as observed in vivo studies.

Conclusion: The time of use and the strain of Lactobacillus probiotics can also be determining factors for the efficiency in the treatment against Candida species, suggesting that a long time of use of Lactobacillus probiotics is directly associated with a better result.

益生乳杆菌对念珠菌属真菌的潜在作用:文献综述。

背景:使用益生乳杆菌可能对个人健康产生有益的影响，例如对抗念珠菌属真菌的能力。这些酵母菌大约有200种，它们会导致念珠菌感染，大约75%的成年女性会感染念珠菌。目的:研究几种乳酸菌对念珠菌的潜在作用。方法:本综述选取2015 - 2020年间发表的15篇文献为研究对象。结果:体外实验结果表明，副干酪乳杆菌、嗜酸乳杆菌、helveticus、鼠李糖乳杆菌、罗伊氏乳杆菌和加色乳杆菌具有抑制念珠菌生长和菌落形成单位数量的潜在作用。此外，根据体内研究，它们可以降低念珠菌病的复发率并提高治愈率，主要是在与传统药物治疗相结合的情况下。结论:益生乳杆菌的使用时间和菌种也可能是治疗念珠菌效果的决定因素，提示使用时间越长，效果越好。
