Molecular and Histological Association Between Candida albicans from Oral Soft Tissue and Carious Dentine of HIV-Positive Children

Abstract: Abstractand caries are frequently investigated among healthy and immunosuppressed individuals. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the presence of on both oral soft and hard tissue and to investigate, at molecular level, the genetic subtype of the organism from the two oral sites. Tongue swabs and dentine scrapings from 362 HIV-positive children, referred for extraction of carious primary teeth, were cultured on CHROMagar and identified to species level with ID32C. Histological staining of extracted… Show more

“… IgG-levels in sera from AD patients were significantly lower than in controls. Colorimetric and morphological identification; molecular method (PCR) C. parapsilosis C. albicans C. glabrata C. dubliniensis Blignaut et al South Africa 2015 [ 72 ] To demonstrate C. albicans presence in soft and hard tissues and to investigate by molecular techniques the genetic subtype from two different oral sites. Decayed teeth can be considered potential C. albicans reservoirs, and they can cause infection in immunocompromised patients.…”

“…Among these techniques, the most widely used are the sugar fermentation and assimilation tests, which currently have several commercial kits that have facilitated and disseminated their use in laboratories such as API20 C AUX (Biomérieux®), which is one of the most used commercial systems for the identification of yeasts [ 71 ]. The articles that used commercial kits to identify the most common Candida species were: Das Chagas et al [ 50 ]; Junqueira et al [ 51 ]; Mane et al [ 70 ]; Merestein et al [ 55 ]; Li et al [ 47 ]; Jiang et al [ 57 ]; Thanyasrisung et al [ 58 ]; Blignaut and van Heerden [ 72 ]; Menezes et al [ 59 ]; Lourenço et al [ 60 ]; and Vijendran et al [ 46 ]. Mushi et al [ 73 ] was the only work that used MS focused on microbiology to identify fungi.…”

“…Wherever possible carious teeth with exposed dentine should be restored or removed if effective resolution of oral candidiasis is to be achieved, particularly if an underlying medical condition or immunosuppression prevails in patients. 31 Despite the topical application of an aqueous oral solution of nystatin having been proven ineffective as both a prophylactic and therapeutic agent, it continues to be prescribed to adults. 18 While nystatin itself has been shown to have some efficacy, it is probable that the aqueous solution/suspension does not provide for the antifungal to remain in contact with the mucosa for sufficient periods of time.…”
