Lack of Cross-protection against Bordetella holmesii after Pertussis Vaccination [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Bordetella holmesii, a species closely related to B. pertussis, has been reported sporadically as a cause of whooping cough–like symptoms. To investigate whether B. pertussis–induced immunity is protective against infection with B. holmesii, we conducted

Emergence of Bordetella holmesii as a Causative Agent of Whooping Cough, Barcelona, Spain [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
We describe the detection of Bordetella holmesii as a cause of whooping cough in Spain. Prevalence was 3.9% in 2015, doubling to 8.8% in 2016. This emergence raises concern regarding the contribution of B.

Prosthetic-Joint-Associated Bordetella holmesii Infection. [PDF]

Open Forum Infect Dis, 2015
Abstract Bordetella holmesii is a globally distributed pathogen that is increasingly recognized as a cause of both pertussis-like respiratory infections and invasive disease. In this study, we describe a case of an immunocompetent man who developed B holmesii infection of his femoral prosthesis—the fifth B holmesii orthopedic infection ...

Emergence of Bordetella holmesii–Associated Pertussis-Like Illness, Northern India, 2019–2023 [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases
We investigated Bordetella holmesii and Bordetella pertussis in 935 suspected pertussis cases in northern India (2019–2023) using PCR and serology. B. holmesii showed increased prevalence in pertussis cases, particularly in older children, highlighting ...

BipA Is Associated with Preventing Autoagglutination and Promoting Biofilm Formation in Bordetella holmesii. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bordetella holmesii causes both invasive and respiratory diseases in humans. Although the number of cases of pertussis-like respiratory illnesses due to B. holmesii infection has increased in the last decade worldwide, little is known about the virulence

Evaluation of real-time PCR for diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis infection [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2006
Background Nucleic acid amplification of the IS481 region by PCR is more sensitive than culture for detection and diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis but the assay has known cross-reactivity for Bordetella holmesii and its use as a routine diagnostic assay
