Bacterial Microbiome and Host Inflammatory Gene Expression in Foreskin Tissue

2022-08-29

Abstract excerpt

As part of the CHAPS randomized clinical trial, we sequenced a segment of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene from foreskin tissue of 144 adolescents from South Africa and Uganda collected during surgical penile circumcision after receipt of 1 to 2 doses of placebo, emtricitabine with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, or emtricitabine with tenofovir alafenamide. We found a large proportion of Corynebacterium in addition to...
