Analyzing cervical microbiome composition in HIV-infected women with different HPV infection profiles : a pilot study in Thailand

Résumé

We conducted a pilot study to analyze the microbiome in cervical samples of women living with HIV with various profiles of HPV infections. The participants had an average age of 41.5 years. Sequence analysis of 16S rRNA V3 gene amplicons was performed using next-generation sequencing technology (Ion Torrent PGMTM). The bioinformatics pipeline was analyzed using the Find, Rapidly, OTUs with Galaxy Solution system (FROGS). Common genera were determined to identify Community State Types (CSTs). The cervical microbiome profiles showed a dominance of lactobacilli in 56% (five out of nine) of samples. All three women with normal cervical cells and high-risk HPV infection were classified as CST IV, characterized by anaerobic bacteria associated with bacterial vaginitis, such as Gardnerella, Prevotella, Atopobium, and Sneathia. Among the two women with abnormal cervical cells and high-risk HPV infection, one was classified as CST III, and the other had an unclassified profile dominated by L. helveticus. Four women with normal cervical cells and no HPV infection exhibited various CSTs. Our study demonstrated the feasibility of the protocol in analyzing the cervical microbiome. However, further analysis with a larger number of longitudinal samples is necessary to determine the role of cervical microbiota in HPV persistence, clearance, or the development of precancerous lesions.
