Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles: New Hype or Hope to Explain Reproductive Host-Microbiota Interactions. [PDF]

J Extracell Vesicles
ABSTRACT Rapid advances in microbiome research are transforming our understanding of human health and disease, with growing focus on the female reproductive tract as a critical but understudied niche. Evidence for a local microbiome largely derives from bacterial nucleic acid detection; however, the biological relevance of these signals remains debated,

From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis [PDF]

Chembiochem
Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.

Development of a mouse model of ascending infection and preterm birth.

PLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundMicrobial invasion of the intraamniotic cavity and intraamniotic inflammation are factors associated with spontaneous preterm birth. Understanding the route and kinetics of infection, sites of colonization, and mechanisms of host inflammatory ...

Antibiotic administration reduced intra-amniotic inflammation 7 days after preterm premature rupture of the membranes with intra-amniotic infection

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2023
Objective Intra-amniotic infections increase the risk of preterm delivery and short- and long-term fetal morbidity; however, no consensus exists on the choice of antimicrobial agents as treatment for these infections.
