Vaginal microbiota in menopause [PDF]

JDVI (Journal of General Procedural Dermatology & Venereology Indonesia), 2016
The human vagina together with its resident, microbiota, comprise a dynamic ecosystem. Normal microbiota is dominated by Lactobacillus species, and pathogen microbiota such as Gardnerella species and Bacteroides species can occur due to decrease in ...

Postmenopausal Vaginal Microbiome and Microbiota [PDF]

Frontiers in Reproductive Health, 2022
The ovulatory cycle has a significant influence on the microbial composition, according to the action of estrogen and progesterone on the stratified squamous epithelium, due to an increase in epithelial thickness, glycogen deposition, and influence on local immunology.

Composition of Vaginal Microbiota in Pregnant Women With Aerobic Vaginitis [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Vaginal dysbiosis, such as bacterial vaginosis (BV) and aerobic vaginitis (AV), is an important cause of premature birth in pregnant women. However, there is very little research on vaginal microbial distribution in AV compared to that in BV. This study aimed to analyze the composition of the vaginal microbiota of pregnant women with AV using microbial

The vaginal microbiota

Journal of General - Procedural Dermatology & Venereology Indonesia, 2022
The vagina is an ecosystem consisting of various species of microorganisms (microbiota) that play important role in maintaining vaginal health. The vaginal ecosystem includes a variety of species classified into aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms which are vaginal microbiota (VMB).

Recent insights into the vaginal microbiota

Microbiota in Health and Disease, 2022
Research on the vaginal microbiome and its relation to women’s health has steadily gained momentum in recent years. Traditionally, vaginal microbiome studies have focused on the pathogenesis of various diseases. Recent publications focus more on health and support a key role for Lactobacillus species and their dominance in maintaining a healthy state ...

Vaginal microbiota and susceptibility to HIV [PDF]

AIDS, 2018
: Bacterial vaginosis, characterized by the replacement of the Lactobacillus-dominant microbiota with anaerobic bacteria and facultative Gram-negative rods, has been associated with adverse reproductive health outcomes including HIV acquisition. With the advent of newer molecular techniques, the vaginal microbiota can be investigated in more detail and

Vaginal Microbiota and the Use of Probiotics [PDF]

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2008
The human vagina is inhabited by a range of microbes from a pool of over 50 species. Lactobacilli are the most common, particularly in healthy women. The microbiota can change composition rapidly, for reasons that are not fully clear. This can lead to infection or to a state in which organisms with pathogenic potential coexist with other commensals ...

Vaginal microbiota networks as a mechanistic predictor of aerobic vaginitis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Aerobic vaginitis (AV) is a complex vaginal dysbiosis that is thought to be caused by the micro-ecological change of the vaginal microbiota. While most studies have focused on how changes in the abundance of individual microbes are associated with the emergence of AV, we still do not have a complete mechanistic atlas of the microbe-AV link.

Maternal Bacterial Engraftment in Multiple Body Sites of Cesarean Section Born Neonates after Vaginal Seeding—a Randomized Controlled Trial

mBio, 2023
Children delivered by elective, prelabor Cesarean section (C-section) are not exposed to the birth canal microbiota and, in relation to vaginally delivered children, show altered microbiota development.
