Aktuelle Epidemiologie von Bordetella parapertussis-Infektionen in Deutschland [PDF]

, 2023
Keuchhusten wird in den meisten Fällen durch Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) verursacht, seltener auch durch B. parapertussis. Seit 2013 besteht gemäß § 6 Infektionsschutzgesetz (IfSG) eine bundesweite Meldepflicht für den Krankheitsverdacht, die ...

Laboratory-based surveillance of pertussis using multitarget real-time PCR in Japan: evidence for Bordetella pertussis infection in preteens and teens

New Microbes and New Infections, 2015
Between January 2013 and December 2014, we conducted laboratory-based surveillance of pertussis using multitarget real-time PCR, which discriminates among Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, Bordetella holmesii and Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

Comparative Phosphoproteomics of Classical Bordetellae Elucidates the Potential Role of Serine, Threonine and Tyrosine Phosphorylation in Bordetella Biology and Virulence

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
The Bordetella genus is divided into two groups: classical and non-classical. Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis are known as classical bordetellae, a group of important human pathogens causing whooping cough or ...

O antigen allows B. parapertussis to evade B. pertussis vaccine-induced immunity by blocking binding and functions of cross-reactive antibodies.

PLoS ONE, 2009
Although the prevalence of Bordetella parapertussis varies dramatically among studies in different populations with different vaccination regimens, there is broad agreement that whooping cough vaccines, composed only of B.

Molecular evolution of the two-component system BvgAS involved in virulence regulation in Bordetella. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
The whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis is closely related to Bordetella bronchiseptica, which is responsible for chronic respiratory infections in various mammals and is occasionally found in humans, and to Bordetella parapertussis, one lineage of

Pertussis among patients with clinically compatible illness in the Amhara Regional State, Ethiopia

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background: Pertussis is an acute respiratory tract disease caused by Bordetella pertussis. In 2014, 24.1 million pertussis cases, resulting in 160,700 deaths, were estimated to have occurred worldwide.

A real-time PCR assay with improved specificity for detection and discrimination of all clinically relevant Bordetella species by the presence and distribution of three Insertion Sequence elements

BMC Research Notes, 2011
Background In Dutch laboratories molecular detection of B. pertussis and B. parapertussis is commonly based on insertion sequences IS481 and IS1001, respectively. Both IS elements are more widely spread among Bordetella species. Both Bordetella holmesii,

Bbvac: A Live Vaccine Candidate That Provides Long-Lasting Anamnestic and Th17-Mediated Immunity against the Three Classical Bordetella spp.

mSphere, 2022
Acute pathogens such as Bordetella pertussis can cause severe disease but are ultimately cleared by the immune response. This has led to the accepted paradigm that convalescent immunity is optimal and therefore broadly accepted as the “gold standard ...

Pathogenicity and virulence of Bordetella pertussis and its adaptation to its strictly human host

Virulence, 2021
The highly contagious whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis has evolved as a human-restricted pathogen from a progenitor which also gave rise to Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica.
