Abstract:
ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a strict human pathogen that is, primarily, transmitted by close sexual contact with an infected individual. Gonococcal infection of the male urogenital tract has been well studied in experimental human models and in urethral cell culture systems. Recent studies, using tissue culture cell systems, have suggested a role for the cervical epithelium in gonococcal infection of females; however, the nature of gonococcal infection of the normal uterine cervix remains controversial. To address this enigma, we have developed two primary human cervical epithelial cell

Abstract:
Cervical cancer remains a global health burden, with persistent infection by high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) being the primary etiological factor. HR-HPVs target stem-like cells of the cervical epithelium to establish chronic infections. Upon infection of the cervical transformation zone (TZ)—a region adjacent to the squamocolumnar junction (SCJ)—these viruses drive neoplastic transformation, which is due in part to the unique cellular composition and hormonal responsiveness of the TZ. Reserve cells, which can accumulate at the cervical crypt entrances of the TZ, are thought to be h

Abstract:
Exposure to semen at intercourse in women elicits an inflammation-like response characterised by recruitment of inflammatory cells and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines including GM-CSF, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 (1). Studies in animal models have implicated TGFβ as the major active moiety in seminal plasma, and we have shown previously that TGFβ1 and TGFβ3 are present in high concentrations in human seminal plasma (>100 ng/mL), while TGFβ2 is less abundant. To investigate the physiological significance of each of the three TGFβ isoforms as pro-inflammatory agents in human semina

Abstract:
IntroductionChronic immune activation is a hallmark of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection that significantly impacts disease pathogenesis. However, in-depth studies characterizing the immunological landscape of the ectocervix during chronic HIV infection remain scarce despite the importance of this tissue site for HIV transmission.MethodsEctocervical tissue samples were obtained from antiretroviral-naïve HIV-seropositive and -seronegative Kenyan female sex workers. These samples were assessed by spatial transcriptomics and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis. We further performed multi-epit

Abstract:
AbstractThe tumoral origin and extensive passaging of HeLa cells, a most commonly used cervical epithelial cell line, raise concerns on their suitability to study the cell responses to infection. The present study was designed to isolate primary epithelial cells from human ectocervix explants and characterize their susceptibility to C. trachomatis infection. We achieved a high purity of isolation, assessed by the expression of E-cadherin and cytokeratin 14. The infectious progeny in these primary epithelial cells was lower than in HeLa cells. We showed that the difference in culture medium, an

Abstract:
Chlamydia trachomatis est une bactérie intracellulaire obligatoire, qui se développe principalement dans cellules épithéliales des muqueuses du tractus génital. Asymptomatiques dans la plupart des cas, les infections par ce pathogène peuvent entrainer des inflammations pelviennes. L’inflammation peut elle-même engendrer des fibroses et mener à une infertilité tubaire chez les femmes. Il est important d’étudier la réponse des cellules épithéliales, qui constituent la première ligne de défense contre l’infection par C. trachomatis, pour mieux comprendre ses manifestations pathologiques dans le t
