CCR6 and bacterial vaginosis: After adjusting for BV, bacterial STIs, and HSV-2 serology, women with low Candida colonization had significantly higher frequencies of CD4+ T cells (β = 12.87, P = 0.027) and CCR6– CCR10– T cells (β = 10.56, P = 0.019) but lower frequencies of Th17-like cells (β = −10.27, P = 0.026) compared to women without Candida colonization, and similar trends seen in women with high Candida colonization and those who had hyphae present compared to those without (Fig. 2B).
