Characteristics of vaginal microbes and classification of the vaginal microbiome
2023Summary Background The vaginal microbiome (VMB) has been classified into several discrete community state types, some of which have been associated with adverse human health conditions. However, the roles of the many vaginal bacteria in modulating the VMB and health remain unclear.

Vaginal microbiome and HPV interplay or coincidence? [PDF]
, 2022 The vaginal microbiome (VM) is a dynamic, balanced system of microorganisms, which under normal conditions ensures a balance between the physiological lactobacilli - Lactobacillus species and the pathogenic bacterial flora and enables protection against pathogenic microorganisms.

The vaginal microbiome in uterine transplantation
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2019Women with congenital absolute uterine factor infertility (AUFI) often need vaginal restoration to optimise sexual function. Given their lack of procreative ability, little consideration has previously been given to the resultant vaginal microbiome (VM).

Vaginal microbiome: normalcy vs dysbiosis
Archives of Microbiology, 2021It has been long understood that the vaginal microflora is crucial in maintaining a normal physiological environment for the host and its involvement is deemed indispensable for reproductive success. A global concept of normalcy vs. dysbiosis of vaginal microbiome is debatable as women of different races have a unique vaginal microflora with regional ...

Vaginal dysbiosis and the potential of vaginal microbiome-directed therapeutics [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiomesA healthy vaginal microbiome (VMB) is dominated by Lactobacillus spp. and provides the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Vaginal dysbiosis, characterized by the loss of Lactobacillus dominance and increase of microbial diversity, has been

Vaginal Microbiome: Considerations For Reproductive Health
Future Microbiology, 2022The microbial communities are an indispensable part of the human defense system and coexist with humans as symbionts, contributing to the metabolic functions and immune defense against pathogens. An ecologically stable vaginal microbiota is dominated by Lactobacillus species, which plays an important role in the prevention of genital infections by ...

The collection of microbes (microbiota) in the human vagina with their associated genes (microbiome) and gene products helps to shape the physiology of the vagina (1). Different vaginal microbial communities are associated with different metabolic states, immunological responses, and risks of adverse health outcomes including preterm birth and ...

Regulation of Vaginal Microbiome by Nitric Oxide
Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, 2019In this review, the composition and regulation of vaginal microbiome that displays an apparent microbial diversity and interacts with other microbiota in the body are presented. The role of nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of vaginal microflora in which lactobacillus species typically dominate has been delineated from the perspective of maintaining ...

Humans live in association with abundant, complex, and dynamic microbial populations (the microbiome) that colonize many body sites, including the vaginal tract. Interactions between the host and the vaginal microbiota greatly affect women’s health, where they often serve a protective role in maintaining vaginal health.
