The human vaginal microbiome, particularly its symbiosis with lactobacilli, plays a key role in maintaining women’s health. While lactic acid-mediated pathogen exclusion is well known, broader metabolic functions of vaginal lactobacilli remain underexplored. In this study, we analyzed the vaginal...
Chemistry in eukaryotic intercellular spaces is shaped by both hosts and symbiotic microorganisms such as bacteria. Pathogenic microorganisms like barley associated Xanthomonas translucens (Xt) swiftly overtake the inner leaf tissue becoming the dominant microbial community member during disease ...
Cesarean section scar diverticulum (CSD) has become a formidable obstacle preventing women receiving CS from reproducing. However, the pathogenesis of CSD remains unexplored. In this study, we characterized the cervical microbiota, metabolome and endometrial transcriptome of women with CSD. Based...
