Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the etiologic agent of gonorrhea, develops antimicrobial resistance to almost all antibiotic classes used for treatment of gonorrhea, making gonorrhea an untreatable disease in the foreseeable future. A neisseria gonorrhoeae FC428 subclone NJ1711654 with high level resistance to expand-spectrum cephalosporins ceftriaxone and cefixime was isolated in Nanjing, China in 2017, revealing the dissemination of FC428 and its subclones. So it is warrant to enhance surveillance and develop new antimicrobials for the treatment of gonorrhea.
