Systems analysis of the female genital tract reveals differential expression of inflammatory and epithelial barrier genes in South African adolescents randomized to injectable, oral or vaginal ring contraception

Project description:Use of hormonal contraceptives (HC) could alter the bacterial community, immune response and epithelial barrier integrity of the female genital tract (FGT) mucosal environment, leading to increased susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV. Here, we tested whether use of three types of HCs, injectable Net-En, combined oral contraceptives (COC) and NuvaRing, a combined contraceptive vaginal ring (CCVR), led to distinct patterns in FGT host transcriptomics transcriptome in South African adolescent females. In an intention-to-treat analysis, we observed few changes in endocervical gene expression in the Net-En and COC groups. Relative to the COC and Net-En arms, samples from the CCVR arm had significant elevation of transcriptional networks driven by IL-6, IL-1 and NFKB, and lower expression of genes supporting epithelial barrier integrity. An integrated multivariate analysis of the cervicovaginal microbiome, transcriptome and cytokines demonstrated that networks of microbial dysbiosis and inflammation accurately discriminated the CCVR arm from the other contraceptive groups, while genes involved in epithelial cell differentiation were predictive of the Net-En and COC arms.

Relationship between the Oral and Vaginal Microbiota of South African Adolescents with High Prevalence of Bacterial Vaginosis.

Project description:Bacterial vaginosis (BV) and periodontal disease (PD) are characterised as bacterial dysbioses. Both are associated with an increased risk of poor pregnancy outcomes, yet it is unknown whether PD and BV are related. We characterised the oral microbiota of young South African females with a high prevalence of BV and investigated the association between oral communities and vaginal microbiota. DNA was extracted from vaginal lateral wall, saliva and supragingival plaque samples from 94 adolescent females (aged 15-19 years). 16S rRNA gene sequencing of the V4 hypervariable region was performed for analysis of the oral and vaginal microbiota and BV status was determined by Nugent scoring. The core oral microbiota was predominately comprised of Firmicutes followed by Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes. The salivary microbiota of participants with BV was more diverse than those with lactobacillus-dominated communities (p = 0.030). PD-associated bacterial species, including Prevotella intermedia and Porphyromonas endodontalis were enriched in the supragingival microbiota of women with non-optimal vaginal communities compared to those with Lactobacillus-dominant communities, while Pseudomonas aeruginosaand Prevotella intermedia were enriched in the saliva of women with non-optimal vaginal microbiota. These data suggest a relationship between oral and vaginal dysbiosis, warranting further investigation into whether they are casually related.

Endocervical and vaginal microbiota in South African adolescents with asymptomatic Chlamydia trachomatis infection.

Project description:Adolescent girls and young women represent a key risk group for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The vaginal microbiota is thought to play an important role in susceptibility to STIs such as Chlamydia trachomatis. We compared the microbiota of the lateral vaginal wall and endocervix, and assessed associations with C. trachomatis infection in South African adolescents. The endocervical and vaginal lateral wall microbiota were characterized by amplifying and sequencing the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene and C. trachomatis diagnosed using molecular methods. Of the 72 girls included, 30 had asymptomatic C. trachomatis infections. Three major vaginal community types were identified; one Lactobacillus crispatus, one L. iners and one diverse, Gardnerella vaginalis dominant. The microbiota of the endocervix was significantly different from that of the lateral wall in terms of diversity. There were many differentially abundant taxa between the endocervix and lateral vaginal wall, including Achromobacter spanius and Enterococcus faecium. Women with C. trachomatis had higher relative abundance of G. vaginalis and other anaerobes. In this African adolescent cohort, significant differences between the lateral vaginal wall and endocervical microbiota diversity and composition were evident, although neither were strongly associated with C. trachomatis infection.

Effects of Injectable DMPA and Combined Oral Contraceptive Use on HIV Susceptibility Factors in Pig-tailed Macaques

Project description:Progestin-based contraception may increase the risk of vaginal HIV acquisition to a level greater than the progesterone-rich luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, which has been demonstrated to have a significantly higher transmission rate compared to the follicular phase. We used pig-tailed macaque (Macaca nemestrina) model to evaluate the effects of administration of the oral the combined oral contraceptives (COCs) depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) and levonorgestrel (LNG) on mucosal factors that influence HIV susceptibility. We compared the pH and vaginal epithelial thickness data from previous studies, and evaluated contraception-induced molecular changes in the vagina using transcriptional and cytokine profiling. The administration of DMPA caused a pronounced thinning of the vaginal epilthelium relative to measurements takein in the follicular or luteal phase. DMPA also induced a significant increase in vaginal IL10 expression. Lastly, using RNA-Seq analyses of vaginal biopsies, we noted that both DMPA- and LNG-based contraception induced a signature of gene expression similar to that of the luteal phase, only more exacerbated, and including widespread down-regulation of HIV-restriction genes. Use of progestin-based contraception might engender a milieu that poses an increased risk of HIV transmission than that of the luteal phase via vaginal thinning, induction of immunosuppressive cytokines, and widespread suppression of HIV restriction factors.
