Resistance to Oxidative Stress Sample Clauses

Resistance to Oxidative Stress. Common oxidants found in biological systems are the reactive oxygen species (ROS), which include the superoxide anion (O2.), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the hydroxyl radical (HO.), along with the reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which include nitric oxide (NO.) and peroxynitrite (ONOO-). Exposure to these oxidative stresses can result in damage to bacterial DNA, proteins, and cell membranes all of which can lead to cell death (177). The host environment inhabited by the gonococcus contains a variety of oxidants that are generated as a by-product of gonococcal metabolic processes or as key factors of the innate immune response to gonococci, which is characterized by the influx of PMNs to the site of infection (82). Exudate released as a result of inflammation containing PMN’s with attached and internalized gonococci is a frequent clinical manifestation of gonorrhoeal disease (182).
