Chemotactic activity of, Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Sonicated whole cells of one of three tested goncoccal strains stimulated neutrophil migration in the agarose gel model. The activity was retained by the material pelleted by high-speed centrifugation of the sonicate. This supports the theory that certain strains possess a cytotaxin bound to the outer membrane.

Multiple inflammatory, infectious and autoimmune dermato‐venereological conditions are associated with erectile dysfunction (ED) due to underlying intricate vasculogenic, neurogenic, endocrine and psychogenic mechanisms. It is recommended that practitioners screen dermatology patients for ED and associated comorbidities, provide personalized lifestyle ...

NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor is a nitric oxide-sensing [4Fe-4S] cluster protein with a specialized regulatory function [PDF]
The Rrf2 family transcription factor NsrR controls expression of genes in a wide range of bacteria in response to nitric oxide (NO). The precise form of the NO-sensing module of NsrR is the subject of controversy because NsrR proteins containing either ...

Association Between Moraxella catarrhalis and Nodular Lymphocyte‐Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma
ABSTRACT Nodular lymphocyte‐predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma (NLPHL) may be an antigen‐driven malignancy. Recent studies demonstrated that in NLPHL patients, lymphoma B‐cell receptor can bind proteins derived from Moraxella catarrhalis (MC) and Rothia mucilaginosa (RM). We examined whether MC and RM can be detected in NLPHL lymph nodes.

A human pathogen, \textit{Neisseria gonorrhoeae} (NG), moves on surfaces by attaching and retracting polymeric structures called Type IV pili. The \textit{tug-of-war} between the pili results in a two-dimensional stochastic motion called \textit ...

Role of lactobacilli and lactoferrin in the mucosal cervicovaginal defense [PDF]
Human lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein present at high concentrations in breast milk and colostrum. It is produced by many exocrine glands and widely distributed in a variety of body fluids.

In vitro and in vivo modification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharide epitope structure by sialylation. [PDF]
After growth of gonococci in the presence of cytidine monophospho-N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (CMP-NANA), their 4.5-kD lipooligosaccharide (LOS) component was increased by approximately 400 daltons, whereas the LOS of strains lacking the 4.5-kD component ...

ABSTRACT Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized vesicles naturally secreted by Gram‐negative bacteria and represent a promising platform for vaccine development. OMVs possess inherent immunostimulatory properties due to the presence of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), providing self‐adjuvanting capabilities and the ability to ...
