Differential and Temporal Immunomodulation of alpha4 Integrins on CD4+ Memory Cells by Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis), is reemerging worldwide due to vaccine inefficacy. The hallmarks of infection are extreme lymphocytosis and delayed recovery, which are partially associated with pertussis toxin.

Outer-Membrane-Vesicle-Associated O Antigen, a Crucial Component for Protecting Against Bordetella parapertussis Infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Bordetella parapertussis is a respiratory-disease pathogen producing symptomatology similar to that of pertussis but of underestimated incidence and with no specific vaccine existing. We recently designed a vaccine candidate from B.

Otitis in pet guinea pigs: Causes, clinical signs, treatment and outcomes

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Otitis is a major disease impacting both pet guinea pigs and laboratory guinea pigs that are used as models in human otological studies. Methods Medical records from two veterinary clinics were retrospectively reviewed to identify guinea pigs diagnosed with computed tomography (CT)‐confirmed otitis between 2014 and 2023.

Complete Structures of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis Lipopolysaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
The structures of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) core and O antigen of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis are known, but how these two regions are linked to each other had not been determined. We have studied LPS from several strains of these microorganisms to determine the complete carbohydrate structure of the LPS.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Bacillus anthracis edema factor substrate specificity: evidence for new modes of action [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.

Swedish Infants Developed Pertussis at a Younger Age if Their Mother Was the Possible Source of Infection in 2009–2015

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the possible source of laboratory‐confirmed pertussis in infants under 6 months of age. Methods This nationwide prospective study was based on laboratory‐confirmed cases reported in the enhanced pertussis surveillance in Sweden from 2009 to 2015. The parents or carers of 345 infants were interviewed
