B. parapertussis is killed by NETs.

, 2017
Neutrophils were incubated with PMA (100 nM) for 1 h at 37°C to induce NETs release. Next, neutrophils were treated with cytochalasinD (100 μg/ml; CytD), MNase I (500 mU/ml), or a combination of both for 30 min at 37°C.

Saliva and Anterior Nasal Samples for Detecting Respiratory Viruses in Children

APMIS, Volume 133, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT For detecting respiratory viruses, a nasopharyngeal swab sample for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays has been the benchmark. Less discomfort related to sampling is requested especially for children, and thus other sample types have been suggested.

Epidemiology and Burden of Human Metapneumovirus Among Italian Adults in Outpatient and Inpatient Settings, 2014–2025

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been increasingly recognized as a major contributor to respiratory infections in all age groups. Owing to its recent discovery, available data on the burden of hMPV in adults are still scant and heterogeneous.

O-antigen blocks B. pertussis vaccine-induced antibodies from mediating adherence of B. parapertussis to PMNs.

, 2013
Naïve serum (white) or (A) aP, (B) wP, (C) wPP-induced serum (grey)-opsonized GFP-expressing bacteria were incubated with freshly isolated human peripheral blood PMNs. Representative histograms of flow cytometry analysis of these cells are shown.

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.

The O antigen is a critical antigen for the development of a protective immune response to Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]

, 2019
Despite excellent vaccine coverage in developed countries, whooping cough is a reemerging disease that can be caused by two closely related pathogens, Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis.

O-antigen decreases the opsonization of B. parapertussis by B. pertussis vaccine-induced antibodies.

, 2013
Representative histograms show flow cytometric analysis of indicated bacteria opsonized with naïve serum (white) or (A) aP, (B) wP, (C) wPP-induced serum (grey) and stained with RPE-labeled goat F(ab)2 fragments of anti-mouse IgG.

Nested duplex PCR to detect bordetella pertussis and bordetella parapertussis and its application in diagnosis of pertussis in nonmetropolitan Southeast Queensland, Australia

, 1999
A duplex PCR to detect Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis was developed with the insertion sequences IS481 (B. pertussis) and IS1001 (B.
