Microbe-binding antibodies in the female genital tract: associations with the vaginal microbiome and genital immunology

2024-03-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Mucosal antibodies in the gut maintain homeostasis between the host and the local microbiome through the clearance of pathogenic bacteria and the development of immune tolerance to inflammatory bacteria. Whether similar bacteria-immunoglobulin interactions modulate cervicovaginal inflammation and/or bacterial colonization in the female genital tract (FGT) is not well understood. Here, we used...
