Gonococci cause immunosuppression by engaging a coinhibitory receptor on T lymphocytes
(2002) In Nature Immunology 3(3). p.210-211- Abstract
- Gonococci that bind the coinhibitory receptor CEACAM1 appear to down-regulate the activation and proliferation of CD4+ T cells. Such infection-induced immunosuppression helps explain why there is little specific immune response associated with gonococcal disease.
