Cervicovaginal microbiome composition drives metabolic profiles in healthy pregnancy
2019-11-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Microbes and their metabolic products influence early-life immune and microbiome development, yet remain understudied during pregnancy. Vaginal microbial communities are typically dominated by one or a few well adapted microbes, which are able to survive in a narrow pH range. In comparison to other human-associated microbes, vaginal microbes are adapted to live on host-derived carbon sources,...
