Phage‐Mediated Presentation of a Conserved HA2 Epitope From Influenza A Virus Elicits Significant IgY Antibody Responses in Broiler Chickens

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
The conserved region of HA2 peptide of Influenza A virus was expressed on the surface of Protein VIII from M13 phage. Immunization of broiler chickens by this hybrid phage showed high levels of antibody responses, highlighting its potential as a promising tool for universal vaccine development against Influenza A virus.

Causes and Seasonality of Upper Respiratory Infections in Adults in Lesotho (2021–2022) (CORIAL)

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Upper respiratory tract infections cause morbidity and a high burden on healthcare systems worldwide, especially in low‐ and lower middle‐income countries. Recent studies throughout Africa indicate seasonal patterns that deviate from those previously described in settings with temperate climates.

Investigating genome reduction of Bordetella pertussis using a multiplex PCR-based reverse line blot assay (mPCR/RLB) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: The genetic composition of the bacterium causing whooping cough, Bordetella pertussis, has been investigated using microarray studies in order to examine potential genetic contributors to the disease re-emergence in the past decade.

Improvement of Mycoplasma pneumoniae–Associated Acute Cerebellar Ataxia and Possible Encephalopathy After Intravenous Immunoglobulin

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) can cause acute postinfectious cerebellar ataxia and encephalitis/encephalopathy. Although ataxia can be self‐limited, prolonged duration of symptoms and long‐term neurological sequelae that persist for months or more are associated with both conditions.

Determination of Serum Antibody to Bordetella pertussis Adenylate Cyclase Toxin in Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Children and in Children and Adults with Pertussis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Presence of antibody to adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) has been noted following Bordetella pertussis infection. Because ACT is not presently in any acellular pertussis vaccines, it has been considered as a possible antigen to use in B.

A Case Report of Bordetella holmesii Concomitant Vascular Graft Infection and Native Vertebral Osteomyelitis

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Bordetella holmesii is a fastidious Gram‐negative coccobacillus that was first isolated in 1983. It is an infrequent human pathogen, predominantly limited to asplenic and other immunocompromised hosts. We describe herein the first reported case of vascular graft infection caused by B.

Genomics of Bordetella pertussis toxins

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2000
Bordetella pertussis, the etiologic agent of whooping cough, produces numerous toxins including pertussis toxin (PTX), adenylate cyclase toxin (AC), dermonecrotic toxin (DNT) and tracheal cytotoxin (TCT). PTX is composed of five different subunits organised in a typical A-B type structure of which the A part possesses an enzymatic ADP ...
