Cervical-Vaginal Microbiome and Associated Cytokine Profiles in a Prospective Study of HPV 16 Acquisition, Persistence, and Clearance

Cervical-Vaginal Microbiome and Associated Cytokine Profiles in a Prospective Study of HPV 16 Acquisition, Persistence, and Clearance

Persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infections is necessary for the development of cervical cancers. Consequently, understanding the biologic mechanisms resulting in clearance is key in cancer prevention. Similar to other mucosal sites, it is expected that the local microbiome plays a significant...
