Complement aberrations and autoantibodies to complement proteins in relation to disease mechanisms.
… correlated to IgG subclass binding to live meningococci, while IgG subclass binding did not correlate to SBA. Thus, the mechanism of influence from IGHG genes on SBA is unclear. IGHG variants are important for immune defense against meningococci in states of deficient complement function. …

A molecular epidemiological analysis of meningococcal isolates within Scotland 1972-1998
… to investigate outbreaks and the spread of meningococci and to examine the population structure of the organism in order to better understand its variation and evolution. Reference institutes have employed such methods for a number of decades for the diagnosis and detection of meningococci. …

Identification and molecular characterization of a putative heme ABC transporter in Neisseria meningitidis
… is unlikely involved in heme acquisition in meningococci. In conclusion, this study describes the difficulties in identifying a meningococcal heme ABC transporter, but highlights several techniques for the future identification and characterization of a heme ABC transporter in Neisseriae.

Mechanismen der Serumresistenz von Serogruppe A Meningokokken unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Kapsel und des Lipopolysaccharids
Neisseria meningitidis ist Auslöser der Meningokokkenmeningitis und der gefürchteten Meningokokkensepsis, die mit einer hohen Letalität belastet sind. Meningokokken lassen sich anhand ihrer Polysaccharidkapsel in verschiedene Serogruppen einteilen, wobei die Serogruppen A, B, C, W135 und Y mit …

Verbreitung von Meningokokken bei gesunden Trägern in Bayern : unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des hypervirulenten ET-15-Klons
Neisseria meningitidis (Meningokokken) stellen einen häufigen Erreger von bakterieller Meningitis und generalisierter Sepsis bei Kleinkindern und Jugendlichen dar. Diese Bakterienspezies ist sehr kompetent für horizontalen DNA-Austausch durch Transformation, was zur einer sehr heterogenen …
