Depiction of the vaginal microbiota in Chinese women with the acquisition of human papillomavirus infection
We utilized 16S rRNA sequencing to dissect the overall structure and composition of the vaginal bacterial community in 30 HPV positive and 30 HPV negative women in China, to explore the association between the vaginal microbiota and HPV infection. Our results will help to define the potential microbiological markers and the pathogenic microbial populations, then provide new insights into the etiology and treatment of the disease.
