The Eukaryotic Host Factor 14-3-3 Inactivates Adenylate Cyclase Toxins of
mBio, 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

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

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

Bordetella parapertussis Circumvents Neutrophil Extracellular Bactericidal Mechanisms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 B. parapertussis is a whooping cough etiological agent with the ability to evade the immune response induced by pertussis vaccines. We previously demonstrated that in the absence of opsonic antibodies B.
