Neisseria gonorrhoeae 188, type 1, was cultured with monolayers of Rhesus monkey kidney
(RE2) cells. Attachment of gonococci to RE2 cells occurred from about 2 h after inoculation …

Macrophages from mice were infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae type 1 cells, and their
ultrastructure was studied by electron microscopy. The macrophages showed various stages …

Phagocytosis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in tissue cell-cultures may protect it from the lethal
action of bactericidal agents. Type reversal from avirulent to virulent gonococci was not …

The comparative killing of pilated and nonpilated forms of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by human
peripheral blood leukocytes was studied in vitro. Some nonpilated gonococci (T2) were …

Attachment of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to amnion cells in tissue culture is facilitated if the
gonococci bear pili. This has been determined by studying the number of pilated, colony …

The association of in vitro human leukocytes with pilated, type 2 Neisseria gonorrhoeae
exceeds that for nonpilated, type 4 organisms but is less than that for nonpilated, type 4 …

Gonococci in pus appear in specific clusters in which they are surrounded by organelles and
granules derived from the host cells in which they multiplied. These clusters have been …

Gonococci (strain bs3) passaged three times and harvested directly from plastic chambers
implanted subcutaneously in guinea pigs were compared with the parent strain (bs) grown …

As a basis for studies of gonococcal pathogenicity, tissue culture cells were infected with
type 1 or type 4 Neisseria gonorrhoeae to determine intracellular viability. A simple and …
