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

Exfoliating Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
This study finds that Neisseria gonorrhoeae suppresses epithelial exfoliation by nitric oxide-mediated initiation of a host signalling pathway to promote colonization in mice.

Commensal Neisseria species share immune suppressive mechanisms with Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a highly adapted human sexually transmitted pathogen that can cause symptomatic infections associated with localized inflammation as well as asymptomatic and subclinical infections, particularly in females.

Autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was studied under different conditions. It was found that low pH and temperature, as well as the presence of divalent cations, spermine, sucrose, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, stabilized nongrowing gonococci. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid alone promoted lysis, whereas lysozyme had only a limited additive effect.

Autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Physiological conditions that would provide maximal rates of autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae were examined. Autolysis was found to occur over a broad pH range with the optimum at pH 9.0 IN 0.05 M tris(hydroxymethyl)amino-methane-maleate buffer. The temperature optimum was found to be 40 C.

In vitro study of potential antibacterial pometia pinnata leaf extract in Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Background: Gonorrhea cases experiencing antibiotic resistance are increasing due to inadequate treatment or failure to contribute to an increase in antibiotic resistance cases; WHO suggests adding herbal therapy treatment methods is expected to minimize

Resistance of Neisseria Gonorrhoeae to Neutrophils [PDF]
Infection with the human-specific bacterial pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae triggers a potent, local inflammatory response driven by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils or PMNs). PMNs are terminally differentiated phagocytic cells that are a vital component of the host innate immune response and are the first responders to bacterial and fungal ...

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
