Abstract
Amaç: Antibiyotik direnci büyük bir sağlık sorunudur. Son yıllarda, probiyotikler alternatif/destekleyici tıp alanında sık kullanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle, çalışmamızda, dört farklı lactobacillus türünün (L. fermentum, L. plantarum, L. acidophilus ve L. rhamnosus) hücresiz süzüntülerinin (cell-free supernatant, CFS) etken olarak izole edilen metisiline dirençli Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vankomisine dirençli Enterococcus (VRE) ve karbapeneme dirençli Klebsiella (KRK) suşlarının üremeleri üzerine inhibitör etkilerini in vitro saptamayı amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Lactobacillus suşları de Man Rogosa Sharpe sıvı besiyerinde üretilmiştir; hücresiz süzüntüler %25, 50 ve 100’lük konsantrasyonları elde etmek için sulandırılmıştır. Patojen bakteriler mikroplaklarda, farklı konsantrasyonlarda CFS içeren ve içermeyen triptik soy buyyonda üretilmişlerdir. Üremeler, 37°C’deki dört saatlik inkübasyon sonunda spektrofotometrik yöntemle ölçülmüştür. İstatistiksel analizler, one-way ANOVA kullanılarak, Dunnett’in çoklu karşılaştırma testi ve Kruskal-Wallis test ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Bulgular: İncelenen tüm CFS konsantrasyonlarının MRSA, VRE ve KRK suşlarının üremelerini inhibe ettiği saptanmış; sonuçlar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (p<0.0001). Tüm CFS’lerin %50’lik konsantrasyonlarının MRSA suşlarının üremesine en etkili konsantrasyon olduğu belirlenmiştir. L.acidophilus, L.fermentum ve L.plantarum CFS’lerinin %50’lik konsantrasyonlarının VRE suşlarının üremesine en etkili konsantrasyon olduğu bulunmuştur. L.fermentum ve L.plantarum CFS’lerinin %50’lik konsantrasyonlarının, KRK üremesini en etkili biçimde inhibe eden konsantrasyon olduğu saptanmıştır. Tüm sonuçlar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (p<0.0001).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda sonuçlarımız denenen tüm laktobasil CFS’lerinin çoğul antibiyotik dirençli bakterilerin üremesini inhibe ettiğini desteklemektedir. Bu inhibitör etkileri, mikroorganizmalara ve CFS’lerinin konsantrasyonlarına bağlı olarak değişkendir.

Abstract
Aim: Antibiotic resistance is a major health problem. Recently, probiotics are used in the field of alternative/supportive medicine. Thus, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the in vitro inhibitory effects of four different cell-free supernatants (CFSs) of lactobacilli species (L. fermentum, L. plantarum, L. acidophilus and L. rhamnosus) on clinically isolated Methicilin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) strains, and Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella (CRK) strains.
Materials and Methods: Lactobacillus strains were grown in de Man Rogosa Sharpe broth; after filtration, CFSs were diluted to obtain 25, 50, and 100% concentrations. Pathogen bacteria were grown in tryptic soy broth with and without CFSs in a micro-plate. The bacterial growths were measured using spectrophotometric method after four hours of incubation at 37°C. One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparisons and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for statistical analyses.
Results: All tested CFSs at all concentrations were found to inhibit growth of MRSA, VRE, CRK strains; the results were found statistically significant (p<0.0001). At 50% concentrations, all CFSs were found to be most effective on MRSA growth. The CFSs of L.fermentum, L.acidophilus and L.plantarum were found to be most inhibitory at 50% concentration on VRE growth. 50% diluted CFSs of L.fermentum and L.plantarum were found to be effective on growth of CRK. All results were found statistically significant (p<0.0001).
Conclusion: In our study, our results support that CFSs of lactobacilli strains inhibit growth of multi-drug resistant bacteria. Their inhibitory effects were dependent on microorganisms and CFS concentrations.
