A Rare Cause of Newborn Apnea That Has Not Been Seen for A Very Long Time with the Effect of the Vaccine: Pertussis

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine, 2023
Pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis, is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in newborn and infancy. Pertussis is diagnosed clinically. It is confirmed by microbiological-serological tests. In recent years, polymerase chain reaction method

Diagnosis of whooping cough in Switzerland: differentiating Bordetella pertussis from Bordetella holmesii by polymerase chain reaction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Bordetella holmesii, an emerging pathogen, can be misidentified as Bordetella pertussis by routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In some reports, up to 29% of the patients diagnosed with pertussis have in fact B.

Bacterial outer membrane vesicles and vaccine applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Vaccines based on outer membrane vesicles (OMV) were developed more than 20 years ago against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. These nano-sized structures exhibit remarkable potential for immunomodulation of immune responses and delivery of “self ...

The Culture of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1962
SUMMARY: Bordetella pertussis grew profusely and retained its normal minute coccobacillary form when grown under 0.4 mm. of fluid lying on a Cohen & Wheeler agar medium + charcoal. Microbes grown in this way were fully antigenic in terms of the mouse protection test. It was easy to obtain harvests of 1.2 x 1011 organisms/ml.

Bordetella pertussisand Pertussis Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2009
Bordetella pertussis is a human-specific pathogen that causes whooping cough. The use of pertussis whole-cell vaccines in infants and toddlers led to decreased circulation of the bacterium in the child population and a marked decrease in the incidence of the disease. However, vaccine does not result in life-long immunity; indeed, the circulation of the

Bordetella parapertussis Survives inside Human Macrophages in Lipid Raft-Enriched Phagosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bordetella parapertussis is a human pathogen that causes whooping cough. The increasing incidence of B. parapertussis has been attributed to the lack of cross protection induced by pertussis vaccines. It was previously shown that B. parapertussis is able

The evolution of pertactin expression in Belgian circulating B. pertussis strains, pre- and post-COVID-19

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bordetella pertussis strains not producing pertactin were globally increasing, especially in countries using the acellular pertussis vaccine. Subsequently, during the pandemic, global pertussis incidence dropped to extreme

Cytokine expression patterns in hospitalized children with Bordetella pertussis, Rhinovirus or co-infection

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Mechanisms of interaction between Bordetella pertussis and other viral agents are yet to be fully explored. We studied the inflammatory cytokine expression patterns among children with both viral-bacterial infections.
