Previous studies showed that the female genital tract microbiome plays a crucial role in regulating the host's immune defense mechanisms. Our previous research has shown that Lactobacillus gasseri LGV03 (L. gasseri LGV03) isolated from cervico-vagina of HPV-cleared women contributes to clearance of HPV infection and beneficially regulate immune response.

Cervical cancer is a significant global health threat, ranking as the fourth most common malignancy among women and resulting in over 300,000 deaths annually. Although screening and vaccination initiatives have led to a decline in incidence rates, treatment options for advanced or recurrent cervical cancer remain inadequate, often proving ineffective and costly. In this context, adenoviral therapy has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance therapeutic outcomes.

Upon infection, human papillomavirus (HPV) manipulates host cell gene expression to create an environment that is supportive of a productive and persistent infection. The virus-induced changes to the host cell's transcriptome are thought to contribute to carcinogenesis. Here, we show by RNA-sequencing that oncogenic HPV18 episome replication in primary human foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs) drives host transcriptional changes that are consistent between multiple HFK donors.
