Trends in antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and molecular characteristics of N. gonorrhoeae with decreased susceptibility to ceftriaxone in Shandong, China, 2007 to 2014.

Abstract excerpt

In this study, the trends of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae were analysed in Shandong Province of China during 2007 to 2014. Furthermore, the ceftriaxone (CRO) genetic resistance determinants, including penA, mtrR, penB, ponA, and pilQ genes, were sequenced and the molecular mechanisms of decreased susceptibility or resistance to CRO in N. gonorrhoeae were elucidated. Overall, the increasing...
