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 ...

Clinical and epidemiological picture of B pertussis and B parapertussis infections after introduction of acellular pertussis vaccines [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2003 To investigate the clinical picture and frequency of Bordetella pertussis and B parapertussis infections after introduction of acellular pertussis (acP) vaccines in Germany.Prospective surveillance for B pertussis and B parapertussis in 14 144 toddlers. Pertussis vaccination coverage was 86%, either with acP (75%) or whole cell pertussis (wcP) vaccine (

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 ...

Evaluation of a real-time PCR assay for detection of Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis in clinical samples [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001 A real-time PCR assay based on the TaqMan technology was developed for the detection of Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis in clinical samples. The assay was evaluated with 182 specimens from 153 patients with and without symptoms of pertussis. The analytical sensitivity ranged from 0.1 to 10 cfu for B. pertussis and B.

Differentiation of Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica by Whole-Cell Protein Electrophoresis and Fatty Acid Analysis [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1995 One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of whole-cell proteins and gas-liquid chromatography of cellular fatty acids were used to determine chemotaxonomic characteristics of strains belonging to Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica.

Natural History and Ecology of Interactions Between Bordetella Species and Amoeba
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 A variety of bacteria have evolved the ability to interact with environmental phagocytic predators such as amoebae, which may have facilitated their subsequent interactions with phagocytes in animal hosts.
