DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02065-21
Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N. gonorrhoeae), the causative agent of gonorrhea, is rising globally. Ceftriaxone is the last remaining antibiotic for empirical treatment of gonorrhea. ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance in N. gonorrhoeae is increasing globally,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0262370
Abstract: Neisseria commensals are an indisputable source of resistance for their pathogenic relatives. However, the evolutionary paths commensal species take to reduced susceptibility in this genus have been relatively underexplored. Here, we leverage in vitro selection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0264737
Abstract: Limited data are available regarding antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains circulating in WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR). We investigated the antimicrobial susceptibility/resistance of N. gonorrhoeae isolates to five antimicrobials (ceftriaxone, azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, and… read more here.
