Diversity of Rhinovirus and Enterovirus Infections Among Pediatric Patients Hospitalized in Wisconsin, 2022-2023. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Severe rhinovirus (RV)/enterovirus (EV) respiratory infections in pediatric patients increased in the US during 2022–2023. This study aimed to characterize RV/EV genetic diversity among hospitalized children in Wisconsin and describe demographic and clinical factors of patients by RV/EV type.

Serum sensitivity and lipopolysaccharide characteristics in Bordetella bronchiseptica, B. pertussis and B. parapertussis [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1991
The viability of four strains of Bordetella bronchiseptica, two strains of B. pertussis and one strain of B. parapertussis exposed to hyperimmune and pre-colostrum porcine serum was examined. Viable cell numbers (cfu/ml) of the B. pertussis strains and a rough strain of B.

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.

Bordetella pertussis,B. parapertussis, vaccines and cycles of whooping cough [PDF]

Pathogens and Disease, 2015
Whooping cough is a vaccine-preventable disease due to Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis. This highly contagious respiratory disease occurs through epidemic cycles every 3-5 years and vaccination did not change this frequency. Models suggest that the cyclic increase of susceptibles is linked to demographic differences and different vaccine ...

Bordetella parapertussis Survives inside Human Macrophages in Lipid Raft-Enriched Phagosomes [PDF]

, 2014
Bordetella parapertussis is a human pathogen that causes whooping cough. The increasing incidence of B. parapertussis has been attributed to the lack of cross protection induced by pertussis vaccines. It was previously shown that B. parapertussis is able

Serum Immunoglobulin G Antibody Responses to Bordetella pertussis Lipooligosaccharide and B. parapertussis Lipopolysaccharide in Children with Pertussis and Parapertussis [PDF]

Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Immunology, 2001
ABSTRACT Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against the lipooligosaccharide (LOS) of Bordetella pertussis and the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Bordetella parapertussis were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in paired sera from 40 children with pertussis and 14 with ...

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]

, 2020
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.
