The article, titled “Relationship between vaginal and oral microbiome in patients of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer”, was published in Journal of Translational Medicine. The aim of this study was to assess the microbial variations and biomarkers in the vaginal and oral environments of patients with human papillomavirus (HPV) and cervical cancer (CC) and to develop novel prediction models.
Microbiota analysis was conducted using full-length 16S rDNA gene sequencing with the PacBio platform. HPV infection and CC impact both the vaginal and oral microenvironments, affecting systemic metabolism and the synergy between bacteria. This suggests that the use of oral flora markers is a potential screening tool for the diagnosis of CC.
BMKGENE provided sequencing and analysis services of full-length 16S rDNA gene for this study.
