Gardnerella vaginalis as a Cause of Bacterial Vaginosis: Appraisal of the Evidence From in vivo Models

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Koch's postulates dictate the use of experimental models to illustrate features of human disease and provide evidence for a singular organism as the cause.

Genome sequences of 11 human vaginal Actinobacteria strains [PDF]

, 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

Microbial Contributions to Primate Reproduction

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Reproduction is a complex process, and microbes play a far greater role than previously imagined. This review explores the ways that microbiomes influence the rich tapestry of reproductive processes and outcomes within the primate lineage, including pre‐copulatory and post‐copulatory mechanisms.

Gardnerella vaginalis Enhances Atopobium vaginae Viability in an in vitro Model

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection among women of reproductive age. A hallmark of BV is the presence of a highly structured polymicrobial biofilm on the vaginal epithelium, presumably initiated by facultative anaerobes of the ...

Microbiome‐urothelium crosstalk in bladder cancer: From dysbiosis to clinical translation

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
This review elucidates the critical crosstalk between the urobiome and bladder cancer (BCa), mapping the landscape from ecological dysbiosis to clinical translation. We synthesize emerging evidence on microbial signatures that distinguish BCa patients, exploring key carcinogenic mechanisms including chronic inflammation, genotoxicity, and the gut ...

Susceptibility of Gardnerella vaginalis to cephradine

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1983
The activity of cephradine and the influence of pH on its activity against 70 Gardnerella vaginalis strains were determined. Serial dilutions of cephradine (0.062 to 256 micrograms/ml) were incorporated into Dunkelberg agar, inoculated with a Steers replicator, incubated in 5% CO2 for 48 h, and examined. The minimal inhibitory concentrations for 90% of

Throwing the dice for the diagnosis of vaginal complaints? [PDF]

, 2006
Backround Vaginitis is among the most common conditions women are seeking medical care for. Although these infections can easily be treated, the relapse rate is high. This may be due to inadequate use of the diagnostic potential. Methods We evaluated the

Exploring the Key Role of Nanotechnology on Intratumoral Microbiome Modulation for Cancer Immunotherapy

MedComm – Biomaterials and Applications, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
The review provides a comprehensive analysis of microbiome‐mediated oncogenic mechanisms in various cancers, emphasizing the unique therapeutic strategies facilitated by nanotechnology. It aims to fill this gap by systematically reviewing nanotechnology‐driven strategies for microbiome elimination, with a focus on their ability to improve the cold TME ...

Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis are able to incorporate and enhance a pre-formed Gardnerella vaginalis biofilm [PDF]

, 2016
Gardnerella vaginalis is the most frequent microorganism found in bacterial vaginosis (BV), while Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis are amongst the most frequent pathogens found in urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Pseudolaric Acid B Combats Drug‐Resistant Candida albicans Infection via Dual‐Action Mechanisms of Direct Antifungals and Vaginal Microbiota Restoration

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
We propose a novel therapeutic approach against fungal infection: Pseudolaric acid B directly eradicates C. albicans via Erg11 inhibition and uniquely, restores vaginal microecological homeostasis by promoting probiotic lactobacilli, addressing both the pathogen and the dysbiotic environment.
