Chlamydial Infection, Plasma Peroxidation and Obesity in Tubal Infertility [PDF]
Background: Genital tract infections and obesity are both sources of oxidative stress. Alterations in immune and antioxidant parameters may arise from this or from an indeterminate autoimmune mechanism.Objective: This study aimed to investigate the ...

Adaptive Immunity in Marsupials
Comparison of the marsupial and eutherian adaptive immune systems. ABSTRACT Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125–160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences.

Deep Understanding of Vaginal Microbiota in HPV‐Related Diseases From a Multi‐Omics Perspective
Current understanding of the vaginal microbiota and roles of critical vaginal bacteria, including Lactobacillus and anaerobic pathogens, in human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV‐related diseases from a multi‐omics perspective. ABSTRACT There is a large number of microorganisms in the human body, which are inseparable from human health.

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis
Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.
