The role of complement receptor 3 (CR3) in<i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i>infection of human cervical epithelia

1 Sept 2001

Abstract excerpt

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an important sexually transmitted pathogen and a major cofactor in HIV-1 infection. This organism uses different mechanisms to infect male and female genital tract epithelia. Receptor-mediated endocytosis of N. gonorrhoeae is the principle mechanism of entry into male urethral epithelial cells. Infection in men leads to a pronounced inflammatory response. In contrast, N. gonorrhoeae...
