Parapertussis and pertussis: Differences and similarities in incidence, clinical course, and antibody responses [PDF]
Objectives: To compare the incidence, clinical course, and serologic response to Bordetella antigens in patients with parapertussis and pertussis.Design: Two studies were performed in Sweden during the 1990s, when pertussis vaccines were used only in ...

Contemporary problems of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis
Current Issues Linked to Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis Abstract Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are causative agents of infections affecting airways. These agents are Gram-negative, aerobic coccobacillus of the genus

Species interactions may help explain the erratic periodicity of whooping cough dynamics
Incidence of whooping cough exhibits variable dynamics across time and space. The periodicity of this disease varies from annual to five years in different geographic regions in both developing and developed countries.

Background Small bacterial RNAs (sRNAs) have been shown to participate in the regulation of gene expression and have been identified in numerous prokaryotic species. Some of them are involved in the regulation of virulence in pathogenic bacteria. So far,

A recombinant iron transport protein from Bordetella pertussis confers protection against Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]
Whooping cough, which is caused by Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis, is a reemerging disease. New protective antigens are needed to improve the efficacy of current vaccines against both species.

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