CD11c+ myeloid cells are the predominant CD4+CCR5+ immune population in the foreskin and are increased in men with HIV-associated penile anaerobes

Lane B Buchanan, Yazan N. Khan, Jorge R Vargas…·Jessica L. Prodger

The paper investigates the association between penile anaerobic bacteria and immune cell densities in foreskin tissue, finding increased CD11c+ myeloid cells and HIV-susceptible T cells in individuals with high bacterial abundance.
