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 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 ...

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 ...

Differential expression of alpha 4 integrins on effector memory T helper cells during Bordetella infections. Delayed responses in Bordetella pertussis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) is the causative agent of whooping cough, a respiratory disease that is reemerging worldwide. Mechanisms of selective lymphocyte trafficking to the airways are likely to be critical in the immune response to this ...

Inefficient Toll-like receptor-4 stimulation enables Bordetella parapertussis to avoid host immunity.

PLoS ONE, 2009
The recognition of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by host Toll-like receptor (TLR)4 is a crucial step in developing protective immunity against several gram negative bacterial pathogens. Bordetella bronchiseptica and B.

Characterization of Post-Translational Modifications and Cytotoxic Properties of the Adenylate-Cyclase Hemolysin Produced by Various Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis Isolates

Toxins, 2017
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are the causal agents of whooping cough in humans. They produce diverse virulence factors, including adenylate cyclase-hemolysin (AC-Hly), a secreted toxin of the repeat in toxins (RTX) family with ...

The type III secreted protein BspR regulates the virulence genes in Bordetella bronchiseptica. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Bordetella bronchiseptica is closely related with B. pertussis and B. parapertussis, the causative agents of whooping cough. These pathogenic species share a number of virulence genes, including the gene locus for the type III secretion system (T3SS ...
