Metastable Iron Sulfides Gram‐Dependently Counteract Resistant Gardnerella Vaginalis for Bacterial Vaginosis Treatment

open access: yesAdvancement of science, 2022
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection found in women in the world. Due to increasing drug‐resistance of virulent pathogen such as Gardnerella vaginalis (G.

Identification and characterization of novel endolysins targeting Gardnerella vaginalis biofilms to treat bacterial vaginosis

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2022
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a recurrent dysbiosis that is frequently associated with preterm birth, increased risk for acquisition of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The overgrowth of a key pathobiont,

Prevalence of Gardnerella vaginalis: an estimate [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1988
To assess the prevalence of Gardnerella vaginalis in the community 300 women aged 16-59 were randomly selected from a general practice's age-sex register and invited to attend for a health check. Out of 282 women who were eligible to attend, 192 did so.

Preclinical Data on the Gardnerella-Specific Endolysin PM-477 Indicate Its Potential to Improve the Treatment of Bacterial Vaginosis through Enhanced Biofilm Removal and Avoidance of Resistance

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2022
Antibiotics are the mainstay of therapy for bacterial vaginosis (BV). However, the rate of treatment failure in patients with recurrent BV is about 50%. ABSTRACT Antibiotics are the mainstay of therapy for bacterial vaginosis (BV).

Gardnerella vaginalis clades in pregnancy: New insights into the interactions with the vaginal microbiome

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Gardnerella vaginalis (GV) is an anaerobic bacterial species involved in the pathogenesis of bacterial vaginosis (BV), a condition of vaginal dysbiosis associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. GV strains are categorized into four clades, characterized

Male carriage of Gardnerella vaginalis [PDF]

open access: yesSexually Transmitted Infections, 1982
The prevalence of Gardnerella vaginalis in the urethra of 430 men attending a clinic for sexually transmitted disease was 11·4%; it was significantly higher in heterosexuals (14·5%) than in homosexuals (4·5%). There was no evidence of rectal or subpreputial carriage of G vaginalis, and urethral carriage was not associated with symptoms of urethritis.

Isolation and Characterization of Gardnerella Phage vB_Gva_AB1, a Bacteriophage Infecting a Clinical Strain of Gardnerella vaginalis

open access: yesMicrobiology Resource Announcements, 2021
Gardnerella vaginalis is the presumed causative agent of bacterial vaginosis. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of Gardnerella phage vB_Gva_AB1, induced from a vaginal bacterial strain from a woman suffering with bacterial vaginosis.
