Neisseria gonorrhoeae breaches the apical junction of polarized epithelial cells for transmigration by activating EGFR

Neisseria gonorrhoeae initiates infection at the apical surface of columnar endocervical epithelial cells in the female reproductive tract. These cells provide a physical barrier against pathogens by forming continuous apical junctional complexes between neighbouring cells. This study examines the i...
