Modified SHI‐medium supports growth of a disease‐state subgingival polymicrobial community in vitro

Alexandros G.Sfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Summary

Developing a laboratory model of oral polymicrobial communities is essential for in vitro studies of the transition from healthy to diseased oral plaque. SHI‐medium is an enriched growth medium capable of supporting in vitro biofilms with similar diversity to healthy supragingival inocula; however, this medium does not maintain the diversity of gram‐negative bacteria more associated with subgingival plaque. Here, we systematically modified SHI‐medium components to investigate the impacts of varying nutrients and develop a medium capable of supporting a specific disease‐state subgingival community. A periodontal subgingival plaque sample was inoculated in SHI‐medium with increasing concentrations of sucrose (0, 0.1, 0.5%), fetal bovine serum (FBS) (0, 10, 20, 30, 50%), and mucin (0.1, 2.5, 8.0g/L) and grown for 48hrs, then the 16S rRNA profiles of the resulting biofilms were examined. In total, these conditions were able to capture 89 of the 119 species and 43 of the 51 genera found in the subgingival inoculum. Interestingly, biofilms grown in high sucrose media, although dominated by acidogenic Firmicutes with a low final pH, contained several uncultured taxa from the genus Treponema, information that may aid culturing these periodontitis‐associated fastidious organisms. Biofilms grown in a modified medium (here named subSHI‐v1 medium) with 0.1% sucrose and 10% FBS had a high diversity closest to the inoculum and maintained greater proportions of many gram‐negative species of interest from the subgingival periodontal pocket (including members of the genera Prevotella and Treponema, and the Candidate Phyla Radiation phylum Saccharibacteria), and therefore best represented the disease community.
