Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Asymptomatic colonization of the upper respiratory tract is a common trait of the two human restricted pathogens, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis. In vivo models of pathogenic neisserial infections are heterologous systems that permit short-term colonization but do not fully recapitulate infections in humans. Studying Neisseria musculi (Nmus), an oral commensal, in laboratory...
