Community dynamics of the
adolescent vaginal
microbiome during puberty

How does the vaginal microbiome
change over a lifespan?
Birth
Vagina sterile in utero (?), then transiently colonized by
mother’s vagina or skin microbiota upon delivery
Childhood
Vagina sparsely populated by assortment of
anaerobic bacteria, few to no lactobacilli
Adolescence
Estrogen levels rise, lactobacilli become more prevalent
while anaerobic populations diminish
Reproductive age
Estrogen cycling stimulates thickening of vaginal
epithelium, abundant lactobacilli help maintain low pH
Menopause
Estrogen levels decline, vaginal epithelium thins,
lactobacilli diminish, anaerobes prevalent

Vaginal microbiota differ among individuals and
are often variable over short time scales
Ravel et al. (2011) PNAS
Gajer et al. (2012) Sci Transl Med
??? ?
Vaginal microbiota of postmenarcheal adolescents (13-18y)
closely resemble those of reproductive age women
Yamamoto et al. (2009) J Pediatr Adolesc Gynecol
Thoma et al. (2011) J Pediatr Adolesc Gynecol
What is the timing and sequence of events that occur as
vaginal microbiota transition to an ‘adult-like’ state?
Study design
microbiota composition
๏ 16S rRNA V1-V3 pyrosequencing
๏ mothur + RDP Naïve Bayesian
Classifier
24 mothers
sampled annually
31 girls enrolled
@ age 10-12 &
premenarcheal
sampled every 3 months for up to 3 years
21 girls became
postmenarcheal
during study
metadata
๏ pubertal development (Tanner stage)
๏ menarcheal status
๏ 21 Black
๏ 8 Caucasian
๏ 2 Native American
Most adolescent microbiota
were already ‘adult-like’
prior to menarche

Community dynamics of the adolescent vaginal microbiome during puberty (UOregon META Symposium 2014)

  • 1. Community dynamics of the adolescent vaginal microbiome during puberty Roxana Hickey University of Idaho META Symposium on Host-Microbe Systems Biology 9 August 2014 @roxana_hickey
  • 2. How does the vaginal microbiome change over a lifespan?
  • 3. Birth Vagina sterile in utero (?), then transiently colonized by mother’s vagina or skin microbiota upon delivery
  • 4. Childhood Vagina sparsely populated by assortment of anaerobic bacteria, few to no lactobacilli
  • 5. Adolescence Estrogen levels rise, lactobacilli become more prevalent while anaerobic populations diminish
  • 6. Reproductive age Estrogen cycling stimulates thickening of vaginal epithelium, abundant lactobacilli help maintain low pH
  • 7. Menopause Estrogen levels decline, vaginal epithelium thins, lactobacilli diminish, anaerobes prevalent
  • 9. Vaginal microbiota differ among individuals and are often variable over short time scales Ravel et al. (2011) PNAS Gajer et al. (2012) Sci Transl Med
  • 10. ??? ?
  • 11. Vaginal microbiota of postmenarcheal adolescents (13-18y) closely resemble those of reproductive age women Yamamoto et al. (2009) J Pediatr Adolesc Gynecol Thoma et al. (2011) J Pediatr Adolesc Gynecol
  • 12. What is the timing and sequence of events that occur as vaginal microbiota transition to an ‘adult-like’ state?
  • 13. Study design microbiota composition ๏ 16S rRNA V1-V3 pyrosequencing ๏ mothur + RDP Naïve Bayesian Classifier 24 mothers sampled annually 31 girls enrolled @ age 10-12 & premenarcheal sampled every 3 months for up to 3 years 21 girls became postmenarcheal during study metadata ๏ pubertal development (Tanner stage) ๏ menarcheal status ๏ 21 Black ๏ 8 Caucasian ๏ 2 Native American
  • 14. Most adolescent microbiota were already ‘adult-like’ prior to menarche
  • 16. Lactobacillus crispatus L. iners L.gasseri L.jensenii Gardnerellavaginalis ‘Other’
  • 17. Lactic acid bacteria became prevalent early in puberty
