O antigen allows B. parapertussis to evade B. pertussis vaccine-induced immunity by blocking binding and functions of cross-reactive antibodies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Although the prevalence of Bordetella parapertussis varies dramatically among studies in different populations with different vaccination regimens, there is broad agreement that whooping cough vaccines, composed only of B.

Outer-Membrane-Vesicle–Associated O Antigen, a Crucial Component for Protecting Against Bordetella parapertussis Infection [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Bordetella parapertussis is a respiratory-disease pathogen producing symptomatology similar to that of pertussis but of underestimated incidence and with no specific vaccine existing. We recently designed a vaccine candidate from B.

The Eukaryotic Host Factor 14-3-3 Inactivates Adenylate Cyclase Toxins of Bordetella bronchiseptica and B. parapertussis, but Not B. pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica, and Bordetella parapertussis share highly homologous virulence factors and commonly cause respiratory infections in mammals; however, their host specificities and disease severities differ, and the reasons

Reemergence of Bordetella parapertussis, United States, 2019–2023 [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
To determine changes in Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis detection rates, we analyzed 1.43 million respiratory multiplex PCR test results from US facilities from 2019 through mid-2023. From mid-2022 through mid-2023, Bordetella spp.

Pertussis Vaccines Scarcely Provide Protection against Bordetella parapertussis Infection in Children—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesVaccines
Background: Pertussis, or whooping cough, is a global public health concern. Pertussis vaccines have demonstrated good protection against Bordetella pertussis infections, but their effectiveness against Bordetella parapertussis remains debated due to ...

Case Report: Possible C3 nephritic factor–driven complement-mediated severe hemolytic anemia and acute kidney injury in a child with Bordetella parapertussis infection [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Overactivation of the complement system can cause life-threatening intravascular hemolysis, acute kidney injury (AKI), and multi-organ failure. Expanding the spectrum of rarer triggers of complement dysregulation that may cause severe hemolysis is ...

Comparison of Bordetella species identification among differing rt-PCR assays in the United States [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
In the United States, the general laboratory method for diagnosing pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis, is real-time PCR (rt-PCR) targeting insertion sequence 481 (IS481).

RETRACTED: Melanin Produced by Bordetella parapertussis Confers a Survival Advantage to the Bacterium during Host Infection

open access: yesmSphere, 2021
Bordetella parapertussis causes respiratory infection in humans, with a mild pertussis (whooping cough)-like disease. The organism produces a brown pigment, the nature and biological significance of which have not been elucidated.
