Gardnerella diversity and ecology in pregnancy and preterm birth

mSystems
The vaginal microbiome has been linked to negative health outcomes including preterm birth. Specific taxa, including Gardnerella spp., have been identified as risk factors for these conditions.

Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Gardnerella vaginalis

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1993
The in vitro susceptibilities of 93 clinical isolates of Gardnerella vaginalis to 25 antimicrobial agents were determined by the agar dilution method. All isolates were susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim.

The Vaginal Microbiome: Disease, Genetics and the Environment [PDF]

, 2010
The vagina is an interactive interface between the host and the environment. Its surface is covered by a protective epithelium colonized by bacteria and other microorganisms.

Dual Role of Natural Killer Cells in Early Pregnancy: Immunopathological Implications and Therapeutic Potential in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion and Recurrent Implantation Failure

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This article elaborates on the role of NK cells in early pregnancy from multiple perspectives, including molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions. It also discusses how NK cell dysfunction contributes to RSA and RIF, aiming to provide insights for future research on NK cell mechanisms and clinical treatment of RSA and RIF.

Identification and Evaluation of the Urinary Microbiota Associated With Bladder Cancer

Cancer Innovation, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2025.
Urinary microbiota in Chinese bladder cancer patients reveals distinct profiles between non‐muscle‐invasive and muscle‐invasive diseases, with potential biomarkers like Peptoniphilus spp. in high‐risk MIBC, suggesting a role in cancer progression. Dysbiosis may serve as a stratification marker for bladder cancer risk. ABSTRACT Background Bladder cancer

Pili on Gardnerella vaginalis studied by electronmicroscopy [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1987
Fourteen recently isolated strains and two laboratory strains of Gardnerella vaginalis were examined by electronmicroscopy for the presence of pili. All strains isolated recently from both men and women were heavily pilated. In contrast only a few pili were seen on organisms of the two laboratory strains, with many of the organisms having no pili.

Bacterial vaginosis [PDF]

, 2017
Bacterial vaginosis is the most prevalent cause of abnormal vaginal discharge in women of childbearing age. It can have a major impact on quality of life and psychological wellbeing if frequently recurrent and strongly symptomatic.

Alterations in vaginal microbiome in women with short cervix: longitudinal study of microbial diversity and impact of vaginal progesterone treatment

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 217-225, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives A short cervix is a known risk factor for preterm birth, and imbalances in the vaginal microbiome, such as low relative abundance of Lactobacillus, may be associated with an increased risk of preterm birth. The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in the vaginal microbiome between women with a short cervix and those with ...

Analysis of Microbial Diversity and Evidence of Contamination at a Mars Analogue Habitat

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
We assessed the potential of a crewed mission to Mars to microbially contaminate the surface by studying a terrestrial analogue facility, the Mars Desert Research Station. DNA sequencing of interior swabs and an external soil sample allowed us to characterise the microbiomes present.
