Molecular evolution of the two-component system BvgAS involved in virulence regulation in Bordetella. [PDF]
The whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis is closely related to Bordetella bronchiseptica, which is responsible for chronic respiratory infections in various mammals and is occasionally found in humans, and to Bordetella parapertussis, one lineage of

Increase in pertussis cases along with high prevalence of two emerging genotypes of Bordetella pertussis in Perú, 2012 [PDF]
As has occurred in many regions worldwide, in 2012 the incidence of pertussis increased in Perú. This epidemiologic situation has been associated with a waning vaccine-induced immunity and the adaptation of Bordetella pertussis to vaccine-induced ...

Identification of a CO2 responsive regulon in Bordetella. [PDF]
Sensing the environment allows pathogenic bacteria to coordinately regulate gene expression to maximize survival within or outside of a host. Here we show that Bordetella species regulate virulence factor expression in response to carbon dioxide levels ...

Emerging and Re-Emerging Zoonoses of Dogs and Cats. [PDF]
Since the middle of the 20th century, pets are more frequently considered as "family members" within households. However, cats and dogs still can be a source of human infection by various zoonotic pathogens.
