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.

Detection of Gardnerella vaginalis, Candida spp. and Trichomonas vaginalis DNA in symptomatic women

open access: yesMicrobiologia Medica, 2010
While vaginitis caused by Trichomonas vaginalis is now less frequent, fungal Candida spp. infections are frequently found and the bacterial vaginosis is one of the most common vaginal diseases caused by anaerobic microorganisms such as Gardnerella ...

The significance of Lactobacillus crispatus and L. vaginalis for vaginal health and the negative effect of recent sex: a cross-sectional descriptive study across groups of African women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Women in sub-Saharan Africa are vulnerable to acquiring HIV infection and reproductive tract infections. Bacterial vaginosis (BV), a disruption of the vaginal microbiota, has been shown to be strongly associated with HIV infection.

Genome sequences of 11 human vaginal Actinobacteria strains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The composition of the vaginal microbiota is an important health determinant. Several members of the phylum Actinobacteria have been implicated in bacterial vaginosis, a condition associated with many negative health outcomes. Here, we present 11 strains

Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus Lcr35 Stimulates Epithelial Vaginal Defenses upon Gardnerella vaginalis Infection

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 2022
Dysbiosis of the vaginal microbiome as a result of overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria, such as Gardnerella vaginalis, and low levels of “healthy” lactobacilli leads to bacterial vaginosis (BV), usually associated with a low-grade inflammatory process ...

Identification of Gardnerella (Haemophilus) vaginalis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1982
Different tests for the identification of Gardnerella (Haemophilus) vaginalis and for its differentiation from catalase-negative unclassified coryneforms from the vagina were evaluated on over 200 bacterial strains, with special emphasis on optimal test conditions. A presumptive identification of G.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae–based probiotic as novel anti-microbial agent for therapy of bacterial vaginosis

open access: yesVirulence, 2018
In this study, we demonstrate, for the first time, that Saccharomyces cerevisiae-based probiotic shows an inhibitory effect on Gardnerella vaginalis infection.

Influence of Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus iners and Gardnerella vaginalis on bacterial vaginal composition in pregnant women

open access: yesArchives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2021
To investigate associations between bacterial species in the vagina in mid-trimester pregnant women from Brazil. The vaginal microbiome in 613 subjects was identified by analysis of the V1–V3 region of bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA and the relative ...

A fruitful alliance: the synergy between Atopobium vaginae and Gardnerella vaginalis in bacterial vaginosis-associated biofilm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is characterised by a change in the microbial composition of the vagina. The BV-associated organisms outnumber the health-associated Lactobacillus species and form a polymicrobial biofilm on the vaginal epithelium ...
