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

The type III secreted protein BspR regulates the virulence genes in Bordetella bronchiseptica. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Bordetella bronchiseptica is closely related with B. pertussis and B. parapertussis, the causative agents of whooping cough. These pathogenic species share a number of virulence genes, including the gene locus for the type III secretion system (T3SS ...

Outer-Membrane-Vesicle-Associated O Antigen, a Crucial Component for Protecting Against Bordetella parapertussis Infection [PDF]

, 2018
Bordetella parapertussis is a respiratory-disease pathogen producing symptomatology similar to that of pertussis but of underestimated incidence and with no specific vaccine existing. We recently designed a vaccine candidate from B.

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.

Deoxyribonucleotide Sequence Relationships Among Bordetella Species [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1981
Deoxyribonucleotide sequence relationships among currently recognized Bordetella species (Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica) were examined by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization involving the hydroxyapatite batch procedures of Brenner and co-workers.

Conservation of Ancient Genetic Pathways for Intracellular Persistence Among Animal Pathogenic Bordetellae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Animal and human pathogens of the genus Bordetella are not commonly considered to be intracellular pathogens, although members of the closely related classical bordetellae are known to enter and persist within macrophages in vitro and have anecdotally ...

Protection against pertussis in humans correlates to elevated serum antibodies and memory B cells [PDF]

, 2017
Pertussis is a respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis that may be particularly severe and even lethal in the first months of life when infants are still too young to be vaccinated. Adults and adolescents experience mild symptoms and are the

A new topology of the HK97-like fold revealed in Bordetella bacteriophage by cryoEM at 3.5 A resolution. [PDF]

, 2013
Bacteriophage BPP-1 infects and kills Bordetella species that cause whooping cough. Its diversity-generating retroelement (DGR) provides a naturally occurring phage-display system, but engineering efforts are hampered without atomic structures.
