Lipooligosaccharides (LOS) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis have components that are immunochemically similar to precursors of human blood group antigens. Carbohydrate sequence specificity of the mouse monoclonal antibodies that recognize crossreacting antigens on LOS and human erythrocytes. [PDF]
, 1988 We have used mouse mAbs, 3F11 and 06B4, that are specific for highly conserved epitopes of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharides (LOS) to identify immunochemically similar structures on human erythrocytes. mAb 3F11 agglutinated erythrocytes from all

Diagnostic Value of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Bacterial Meningitis: A Cross‐Sectional Study
Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Background Bacterial meningitis (BM) is a potentially life‐threatening condition that could rapidly progress to permanent brain damage, neurologic complications, or even death. Diagnostic tools to distinguish between BM and aseptic meningitis (AM) are essential to target the appropriate treatment to patients at great risk and concurrently ...

Acetyl‐Phosphate Dependent Protein Acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.The role of acetyl‐phosphate‐dependent non‐enzymatic protein acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae was investigated through the deletion of the phosphotransacetylase (pta) and the acetate kinase (ackA) genes, this led to a decrease and increase in protein acetylation, respectively.

mLife, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 148-163, April 2026.Abstract Infectious disease diagnostics has been transformed by metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS), an unbiased approach that detects bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites in a single assay. By sequencing all nucleic acids in a sample, mNGS overcomes the narrow detection scope and slow turnaround of conventional tests, substantially ...
