Neisseria gonorrhoeae suppresses the oxidative burst of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes

Symptomatic infection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Gc) results in a potent polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN)-driven inflammatory response, but the mechanisms by which Gc withstands PMN attack are poorly defined.
