Horizontal Gene Transfer of Fluoroquinolone Resistance-Conferring Genes From Commensal Neisseria to Neisseria gonorrhoeae: A Global Phylogenetic Analysis of 20,047 Isolates

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an important global health concern. The genetically related commensal Neisseria act as a reservoir of resistance genes, and horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has been shown to play an important role in ...

Etiological profile of male urethritis and genital ulcer disease and antimicrobial susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in Southeastern Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Background: Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are major causes of male urethritis and genital ulcer disease, with increasing concern about antimicrobial resistance, particularly in Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Evaluation of a Hydrogel-Based Diagnostic Approach for the Point-of-Care Based Detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Antibiotics, 2018
Eleven primer pairs were developed for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The sensitivity and specificity of these primers were evaluated by Real Time (RT)-PCR melt curve analyses with DNA from 145 N. gonorrhoeae isolates and 40 other Neisseria

Choosing New Therapies for Gonorrhoea: We Need to Consider the Impact on the Pan-Neisseria Genome. A Viewpoint

Antibiotics, 2021
The development of new gonorrhoea treatment guidelines typically considers the resistance-inducing effect of the treatment only on Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Antimicrobial resistance in N.

Neisseria mucosa Does Not Inhibit the Growth of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Sci, 2022
Antibiotic-sparing treatments are required to prevent the further emergence of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Commensal Neisseria species have previously been found to inhibit the growth of pathogenic Neisseria species. For example, a

Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Human Commensal Neisseria Species

Antibiotics, 2021
Pathogenic Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. N. gonorrhoeae has evolved high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AR) leading to therapeutic failures even in dual-therapy treatment with azithromycin and ceftriaxone.

Both Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria sicca Induce Cytokine Secretion by Infected Human Cells, but Only Neisseria gonorrhoeae Upregulates the Expression of Long Non-Coding RNAs

Pathogens, 2022
Bacteria of the Neisseria genus are Gram-negative diplococci including both pathogenic and commensal species. We focused on pathogenic Neisseria gonorrhoeae and commensal Neisseria sicca. We have demonstrated that not only N.
