Intranasal acellular pertussis vaccine provides mucosal immunity and protects mice from Bordetella pertussis

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2019
Current acellular pertussis vaccines fall short of optimal protection against the human respiratory pathogen Bordetella pertussis resulting in increased incidence of a previously controlled vaccine- preventable disease.

Genome-based prediction of cross-protective, HLA-DR-presented epitopes as putative vaccine antigens for multiple Bordetella species

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Acellular pertussis vaccines protect against severe pertussis, but vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time. Prior animal studies showed that T-cell responses are integral to long-lasting immunity.

Pertussis in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations: epidemiology and challenges

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Pertussis is a highly infectious respiratory disease caused by Bordetella pertussis. Infants and young children are particularly at risk of severe and life-threatening disease. Infectious older individuals may transmit Bordetella pertussis to unprotected

A novel method for the extraction of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Bordetella pertussis Tohama strain

open access: yesIranian Journal of Microbiology, 2020
Background and Objectives: There are many pertussis outbreaks which is mainly due to the reduction in the immunity of acellular pertussis (aP) vaccines. Therefore, there is a crucial necessity to develop a new generation of pertussis vaccine.

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.

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

Seroprevalence of IgA and IgM antibodies to Bordetella pertussis in healthy Japanese donors: Assessment for the serological diagnosis of pertussis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Pertussis is a human respiratory infection caused by the gram-negative bacterium, Bordetella pertussis. To evaluate the pertussis burden and vaccine efficacy, diagnosis and epidemiological surveillance should be based on accurate and valid diagnostic ...

Comparison of Bordetella species identification among differing rt-PCR assays in the United States

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
In the United States, the general laboratory method for diagnosing pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis, is real-time PCR (rt-PCR) targeting insertion sequence 481 (IS481).

The Eukaryotic Host Factor 14-3-3 Inactivates Adenylate Cyclase Toxins of Bordetella bronchiseptica and B. parapertussis, but Not B. pertussis

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica, and Bordetella parapertussis share highly homologous virulence factors and commonly cause respiratory infections in mammals; however, their host specificities and disease severities differ, and the reasons
