OBJECTIVE Lactobacillus dominates the lower genital tract microbiota of many women, producing a low vaginal pH, and is important for healthy pregnancy outcomes and protection against several sexually transmitted pathogens. Yet, factors that promote Lactobacillus remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that the amount of free glycogen in the lumen of the lower genital tract is an important det...
To evaluate the effect of delivery mode on fetal stress hormones and acid-base status and also to investigate the relationship between fetal acidemia and these hormones. 64 women with term pregnancies were studied. All had singleton, healthy pregnancies. Twenty one women were delivered by spontaneous vaginal route, 23 by vaginal route following oxytocin infusion and 20 by elective caesarean sec...
The human cathelicidin, hCAP-18, is expressed both in neutrophils and in epithelial cells. hCAP-18 is processed to the antimicrobial peptide LL-37 by proteinase 3 in neutrophils. hCAP-18 is highly expressed in the epididymis with a subsequent high concentration in seminal plasma where the protein is present in its unprocessed and antimicrobially inactive form. We report here that hCAP-18 in sem...
pH-Dependant Antifungal Activity of Valproic Acid against the Human Fungal Pathogen Candida albicans
Current antifungal drugs suffer from limitations including toxicity, the emergence of resistance and decreased efficacy at low pH that are typical of human vaginal surfaces. Here, we have shown that the antipsychotic drug valproic acid (VPA) exhibited a strong antifungal activity against both sensitive and resistant Candida albicans in pH condition similar to that encountered in vagina. VPA exe...
