Agglutination of Bordetella species by lectins [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992
Phase I cells of Bordetella pertussis but not those of B. parapertussis, B. bronchiseptica or B. avium were agglutinated by Limulus polyphemus lectin. Most strains of B. pertussis but not those of the other species were also agglutinated by Helix pomatia lectin. In precipitation reactions between lectins and purified Bordetella lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

Diversity of Rhinovirus and Enterovirus Infections Among Pediatric Patients Hospitalized in Wisconsin, 2022-2023. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Severe rhinovirus (RV)/enterovirus (EV) respiratory infections in pediatric patients increased in the US during 2022–2023. This study aimed to characterize RV/EV genetic diversity among hospitalized children in Wisconsin and describe demographic and clinical factors of patients by RV/EV type.

Conserved Patterns of Symmetric Inversion in the Genome Evolution of Bordetella Respiratory Pathogens

mSystems, 2019
Whooping cough (pertussis), primarily caused by Bordetella pertussis, has resurged in the United States, and circulating strains exhibit considerable chromosome structural fluidity in the form of rearrangement and deletion.

Bordetella spp. utilize the type 3 secretion system to manipulate the VIP/VPAC2 signaling and promote colonization and persistence of the three classical Bordetella in the lower respiratory tract

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionBordetella are respiratory pathogens comprised of three classical Bordetella species: B. pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica. With recent surges in Bordetella spp.

Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis: two immunologically distinct species [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1993
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are closely related species. Both are responsible for outbreaks of whooping cough in humans and produce similar virulence factors, with the exception of pertussis toxin, specific to B. pertussis. Current pertussis whole-cell vaccine will soon be replaced by acellular vaccines containing major adhesins ...

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 ...

Characterization of fimbrial subunits from Bordetella species [PDF]

Microbial Pathogenesis, 1987
Using antisera raised against serotype 2 and 3 fimbrial subunits from Bordetella pertussis, serologically related polypeptides were detected in Bordetella bronchiseptica, Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella avium strains. The two B. pertussis fimbrial subunits, and three of the serologically related B.

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 ...

Biological Properties of Lipopolysaccharides from Bordetella Species [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1990
Biological activities of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) extracted from Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica were compared with those of Escherichia coli LPS. The LPS preparations from B. pertussis showed biological activities comparable to those of E. coli LPS in terms of lethal toxicity in galactosamine-sensitized mice, pyrogenicity

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.
