Background
The human oral environment is a complex micro-ecosystem consisting of a plurality of microorganisms, and is the second biggest micro-ecosystem which is researched only next to the intestinal tract at present. The research shows that the microorganisms commonly found in the oral cavity comprise bacteria, fungi, mycoplasma, viruses and the like, and the microorganisms are widely distributed on the buccal mucosa, the back of the tongue, the coronary plaque, the gingival sulcus and the like. The balance of oral micro-ecology is influenced by the symbiosis, antagonism and the like, and the balance of the oral micro-ecology is closely related to the health and diseases of the oral cavity. For example, the generation of oral caries has a clear relationship with the imbalance of oral micro-ecology, and the relationship between streptococcus mutans and dental caries is the most widely studied.
The traditional methods for preventing and treating dental caries mainly comprise a mechanical method, a pharmaceutical method, a diet control method, a re-mining method and the like, but the methods have certain defects, such as the problems that the drug resistance of bacteria is increased easily due to the excessive use of drugs, the diet control is difficult to realize and the like, and therefore, the search for a new prevention and treatment method becomes a hot point for research. Lactic acid bacteria are the earliest microorganisms applied to human beings, and can improve the nutritive value of food, improve the flavor of the food, regulate the balance of body flora, help digestion, improve immunity and the like. In terms of Oral caries control, as found in a study on 138 healthy children aged 2-3 years, probiotic supplementation is effective in reducing the incidence of caries in early childhood (Hedayati-Hajikan et al BMC Oral Health 2015, 15. Another report examined the effect of fluoride in combination with lactobacillus rhamnosus LB21 on caries treatment and found that fluoride in combination with lactobacillus rhamnosus LB21 was effective in shortening the treatment cycle for caries (c.tack sen-Blicks et al care Research,2009, 43.
The lactic acid bacteria must be present in a certain amount to exert their probiotic effect, and successful adhesion to a specific site is the first step in the quantitative proliferation of the lactic acid bacteria. The adhesion ability of lactic acid bacteria is related to various factors, such as: adhesins, cell surface proteins, capsular polysaccharides, and the like. Generally, products containing lactic acid bacteria mainly enter oral cavities through chewing, buccal dissolution and other modes, compared with intestinal digestion, the stay time in the oral cavities is often shorter, if the adhesion capability of the lactic acid bacteria is not strong, the lactic acid bacteria can quickly enter digestive tracts along with swallowing and other actions, so that the lactic acid bacteria cannot be fixedly planted in the oral cavities, cannot be proliferated and can play a beneficial role. On the other hand, the environment of the oral cavity is more complex than that of the intestinal tract, which also increases the difficulty of adhesion of lactic acid bacteria in the oral cavity. At present, in the aspect of oral cavity probiotics, strains with high adhesion performance are mainly bred as potential research objects (Jonathan C.L.Chua et al.Critical reviews in food science and nutrition.2019, DOI: 10.1080/10408398.2019.1669528), and reports are rarely made on a method for improving the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria in the oral cavity, so that the application of the lactic acid bacteria in the aspect of oral cavity dental caries is greatly limited. In contrast, studies on improving the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria in the intestinal tract are more frequent, and the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria to intestinal epithelial cells is effectively improved by changing the components of the culture medium (chinese patent publication No. CN 103275920B). However, it should be noted that the difference between the oral environment and the intestinal environment is large, and the objects, sites and environments for permanent planting are all significantly different, so it is very important to develop a method for improving the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria in the oral cavity.

The process differences for examples 1-8 and comparative examples 1-8 are shown in the following table:
adhesion test of Lactobacillus plantarum
Washing the collected Lactobacillus plantarum with 0.5% physiological saline for 3 times, re-suspending the cells with physiological saline, and adjusting the cell concentration to 5 × 10 7 CFU/mL. Oral KB cells were cultured in 1640 cell culture medium containing 10% heat-inactivated newborn calf serum, and the cell concentration was 5% CO at 37 ℃ in the medium 2 Adjusting the cell concentration to 5 × 10 after incubation in a constant temperature incubator 5 CFU/mL, inoculating KB cells into 6-well plates covered with glass slides overnight for culture until complete adherence, removing culture medium by aspiration, rinsing with fresh culture medium for 2 times, and adding 5 × 10 7 CFU/mL of the cells at 37 ℃ and 5% CO 2 After incubation at constant temperature for 2 hours, the cells were washed 3 times with PBS solution to remove non-adhered cells. First of allGram staining is carried out after alcohol is fixed for 15min, 50 cells are randomly selected under an oil lens, the number of bacteria adhered to the cells is calculated, and the average number of adhered bacteria on each cell is the adhesion index.
By taking the adhesion performance of lactobacillus plantarum of a conventionally cultured control group as a control, as shown in fig. 1, the influence of different pH values on the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral KB cells is compared, and the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral KB cells is found to be greatly improved after the method provided by the invention is adopted, which indicates that the adhesion capacity of lactobacillus plantarum to oral KB cells can be improved by the method provided by the invention. In addition, the results of comparative examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 and 2 show that the results of examples 1 to 3 are superior to those of comparative examples 1 and 2, and it can be seen that the effect of promoting adhesion of the strain to the oral KB cells is not significant when the pH is out of the range disclosed in the present invention. The reason is probably that the lactobacillus has certain low-acidity tolerance, but when the environmental acidity is too low, the growth capacity of the strain is greatly attenuated, so that the activity of the strain is reduced, and when the environmental pH value is too high, the environmental pH value is more suitable for the growth of the strain, and the adhesion performance of the strain cannot be improved. In addition, as a result of comparing examples 1 to 3, the effect of example 1 to improve the adhesive property of lactobacillus plantarum is most significant.
Compared with the effect of different sodium lactate concentrations on the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells, the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells is greatly improved by using the method disclosed by the invention as shown in figure 2 by taking the adhesion performance of the conventionally cultured lactobacillus plantarum in a control group as a control, which indicates that the adhesion ability of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells can be improved by the method disclosed by the invention. In addition, comparing the results of examples 1, 4, 5 and comparative examples 3 and 4, it was found that the results of examples 1, 4, 5 were superior to those of comparative examples 3 and 4, and it can be seen that the effect of promoting adhesion of the strain to oral cavity KB cells was not significant when the sodium lactate concentration was outside the range disclosed in the present invention. It is presumed that the improvement in adhesion performance of the strain cannot be induced when the sodium lactate concentration is too low, while the reduction in strain viability and the reduction in adhesion performance of the strain may be caused when the sodium lactate concentration is too high by inhibiting the growth of the strain. In addition, as a result of comparing examples 1, 4, and 5, the effect of example 1 to improve the adhesion property of lactobacillus plantarum was most significant.
The adhesion performance of lactobacillus plantarum in a conventionally cultured control group is used as a control, as shown in fig. 3, and compared with the influence of different culture times on the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells, the adhesion index of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells is greatly improved after the method disclosed by the invention is adopted, which indicates that the method disclosed by the invention can improve the adhesion capacity of lactobacillus plantarum to oral cavity KB cells. In addition, the results of comparative examples 1, 6 and 7 and comparative examples 5 and 6 show that the results of examples 1, 6 and 7 are superior to those of comparative examples 5 and 6, and it can be seen that the effect of promoting adhesion of the strain to the oral KB cells is not significant when the range of the static culture time is not within the range disclosed in the present invention. It is presumed that the improvement of the adhesion property of the strain cannot be induced when the standing culture time is too short, and the growth of the strain is inhibited when the standing culture time is too long, which may decrease the viability of the strain and, on the contrary, the adhesion property of the strain. In addition, as a result of comparing examples 1, 6, and 7, the effect of example 1 to improve the adhesion property of lactobacillus plantarum was most significant.
In addition, as shown in fig. 4, by comparing the experimental results of the method of the present invention with the previously reported method for promoting the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria to intestinal epithelial cells, it is found that the method of the present invention can effectively improve the adhesion performance of the strain to oral KB cells, whereas the previously reported method for promoting the adhesion of lactic acid bacteria to intestinal epithelial cells cannot significantly improve the adhesion performance of lactobacillus plantarum to oral KB cells. The reason is that the difference between the oral cavity environment and the intestinal environment is large, and objects, sites and the like planted by the oral cavity environment and the intestinal environment are obviously different, which shows that the method is more favorable for improving the adhesion performance of the lactobacillus to the oral cavity.
Comparative test of adhesion properties of different lactic acid bacteria
The method of example 1 was used to perform stationary culture on lactobacillus salivarius, bifidobacterium longum, lactobacillus rhamnosus, lactobacillus acidophilus, bifidobacterium lactis, bifidobacterium bifidum, lactobacillus paracasei, lactobacillus casei, lactobacillus reuteri, lactobacillus crispatus and pediococcus acidilactici, and the results are shown in the following table comparing the effect of the method on the improvement of the adhesion performance of different lactic acid bacteria after conventional culture:

From the above results, it can be seen that the adhesion of different lactic acid bacteria to oral KB cells can be effectively improved by the method of the present invention. In addition, statistical analysis shows that the improvement effect of the method on different strains is not significantly different from the improvement effect on lactobacillus plantarum (P > 0.05), and the method is applicable to the strains.
