Nasal secretions of volunteers colonized by N. lactamica impaired the attachment of N. lactamica and of meningococci of groups A and B to oroepithelial cells. Bacterial adherence was found to be mediated by nonpiliated adhesins with antigen(s) which probably are shared by the strains tested. Although a strong attachment-inhibiting activity arises in their nasal secretions, volunteers remained colonized by N. lactamica. This evidence suggest that the eradication of Neisseria carriage is a multifactorial event.As secreções nasais de voluntários colonizados por N. lactamica inibem a aderência de N. Lactamica e de meningococos dos grupos A e B à células oroepiteliais humanas, "in vitro". A aderência, nas amostras de Neisseria testadas, decorre ...
