Experimental Study of the Relationship between Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis Infections in Suckling Mice

Journal of the Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases, 1998
Bordetella parapertussis can occasionally be isolated in the late period of epidemic pertussis and even from the same patient infected with B. pertussis, thereby closely related to B. pertussis. Compared with B. pertussis, it is more frequently isolated from vaccinated individuals as well.

Rates of transposition in Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2013
The evolutionary role of transposable elements (TEs) is still highly controversial. Two key parameters, the transposition rate (u and w, for replicative and non-replicative transposition) and the excision rate (e) are fundamental to understanding their ...

Determination of Serum Antibody to Bordetella pertussis Adenylate Cyclase Toxin in Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Children and in Children and Adults with Pertussis [PDF]

, 2017
Presence of antibody to adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) has been noted following Bordetella pertussis infection. Because ACT is not presently in any acellular pertussis vaccines, it has been considered as a possible antigen to use in B.

Long Term Sequelae of Mild RSV Infections in Healthy Children Aged 0–3 Years in the Primary Care Setting—A Prospective Two Year Follow Up Observational Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Children with an early severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection have an increased risk of wheezing later in life. This longitudinal study aimed to investigate whether children with a mild RSV infection taken care of in a primary health care setting had an increased incidence of wheezing in the 2 years following infection compared to ...

Clinical and Epidemiological Insights into a Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 Outbreak in Multiple Myeloma Patients

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV‐3) can be responsible for mild to severe respiratory infections and hospital epidemics. We investigated an outbreak in a hematology unit. Respiratory viruses were screened using multiplex PCR. HPIV‐3 quantification and whole‐genome sequencing were performed on HPIV‐3 positive respiratory samples. Clinical

Evaluation of the ELITe InGenius and Bordetella ELITe MGB Kit for the detection and identification of B. pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. holmesii

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease
Bordetella pertussis is the causative pathogen of whooping cough or pertussis, a contagious respiratory disease. Aside from serodiagnosis, laboratory confirmation of pertussis is done through PCR, as B. pertussis is difficult to culture. The ELITe InGenius instrument (ELITechGroup, France) with accompanying Bordetella ELITe MGB Kit was evaluated ...

Genome-based prediction of cross-protective, HLA-DR-presented epitopes as putative vaccine antigens for multiple Bordetella species

Microbiology Spectrum
Acellular pertussis vaccines protect against severe pertussis, but vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time. Prior animal studies showed that T-cell responses are integral to long-lasting immunity.
