Lactobacillus species and Clamydia trachomatis characterisation in premature rupture of membranes and normal pregnancy

Andalas Obstetrics and Gynecology Journal
The cause of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) remains uncertain. The vaginal microbiota might possess a significant influence on the vaginal environment and can impact the overall health of the female reproductive system.

Detection of hydrogen peroxide-producing Lactobacillus species in the vagina: a comparison of culture and quantitative PCR among HIV-1 seropositive women

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2012
Background The presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) producing Lactobacillus in the vagina may play a role in controlling genital HIV-1 shedding. Sensitive molecular methods improve our ability to characterize the vaginal microbiota; however, they cannot ...

Role of D(−)-Lactic Acid in Prevention of Chlamydia trachomatis Infection in an In Vitro Model of HeLa Cells

Pathogens, 2023
A vaginal microbiota dominated by certain Lactobacillus species may have a protective effect against Chlamydia trachomatis infection. One of the key antimicrobial compounds produced is lactic acid, which is believed to play a central role in host defense.

Lactobacillus crispatus M247 oral administration: Is it really an effective strategy in the management of papillomavirus-infected women?

Infectious Agents and Cancer, 2022
Background Recent studies have shown the importance of the microbiota in women's health. Indeed, the persistence of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-related lesions in patients with dysbiosis can be the antechamber to cervical cancer.

Transition in vaginal Lactobacillus species during pregnancy and prediction of preterm birth in Korean women

Scientific Reports, 2022
The predominance of vaginal Lactobacillus species, specifically L. crispatus, is important for pregnancy maintenance, but varies by race. The composition of the vaginal microbiome can affect susceptibility to adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Extracellular proteins of Lactobacillus crispatus enhance activation of human plasminogen [PDF]

Microbiology, 2007
The abundant proteolytic plasminogen (Plg)/plasmin system is important in several physiological functions in mammals and also engaged by a number of pathogenic microbial species to increase tissue invasiveness or to obtain nutrients. This paper reports that a commensal bacterium, Lactobacillus crispatus, interacts with the Plg system.

Regulatory Effects of <i>Lactobacillus crispatus</i> and <i>Lactobacillus rhamnosus</i> on the Formation and Composition of <i>Gardnerella</i> Biofilms. [PDF]

Microorganisms
Bacterial vaginosis (BV), the most common lower genital tract infection among women of childbearing age, is characterized by a decline in Lactobacillus populations and the excessive proliferation of anaerobic bacteria. Clinically, metronidazole remains the first-line therapeutic agent.
