Research Abstract |
The normal vaginal flora composed of both major lactobacillus and minor aerobic/anaerobic bacteria, keep the vaginal cleanliness. Overgrowth of the anaerobic bacteria or G. Vaginalis causes bacterial vaginosis. The multiple genotypes of HPV infection were observed under the overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria or G. Vaginalis, suggesting HPV infection and anaerobic bacteria or G. Vaginalis have network in premalignant status. HPV infection in the high grade of intraepithelial lesion results in the enhancement of immune response. This mechanism might have some negative effect on the progression. In contrast, HPV infections have an effect on the immune escape in the normal or low grade intraepithelial lesions. The balance of the viral infection and host immune response might be crucial for the multistep carcinogenesis in the cervix.
