Differential Signature of the Microbiome and Neutrophils in the Oral Cavity of HIV-Infected Individuals
HIV infection is associated with a wide range of changes in microbial communities and immune cell components of the oral cavity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the oral microbiome in relationship to oral neutrophils in HIV-infected compared to healthy individuals. We evaluated oral washes...
