Antibody-Based Detection and Inhibition of Vaginolysin, the Gardnerella vaginalis Cytolysin
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection worldwide and is associated with significant adverse sequelae. We have recently characterized vaginolysin (VLY), the human-specific cytotoxin produced by Gardnerella vaginalis and believed to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of BV...
