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.

Prevalence of Ureaplasma spp. and Mycoplasma hominis in healthy women and patients with flora alterations [PDF]

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2019
The objective was to estimate the prevalence of Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma parvum, and Ureaplasma urealyticum in healthy women and patients with altered vaginal microflora. Vaginal samples from 2594 unselected female patients were divided into normal, bacterial vaginosis (BV), and aerobic vaginitis (AV) groups and tested for U.

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 ...

Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications of Microbiome‐Mediated Immune Dysregulation in Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Implantation Failure

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses before 20 weeks of gestation, affects 1%–5% of couples of reproductive age worldwide. Growing evidence indicates a role for the microbiome in reproductive health, particularly in unexplained RPL.
