Microbiota dysbiosis is associated with HPV‑induced cervical carcinogenesis
26 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
Cervical microbial communities serve a crucial role in the persistence and development of oncogenic human papilloma virus (HPV) infections. In the present study, the authors hypothesised that disturbed heterogeneity of microbial flora was associated with HPV‑induced carcinogenesis.
