Diagnosis of whooping cough in Switzerland: differentiating Bordetella pertussis from Bordetella holmesii by polymerase chain reaction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Bordetella holmesii, an emerging pathogen, can be misidentified as Bordetella pertussis by routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In some reports, up to 29% of the patients diagnosed with pertussis have in fact B.

Bordetella avium-associated endophthalmitis: case report

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background Bordetella avium, an aerobic bacterium that rarely causes infection in humans, is a species of Bordetella that generally inhabits the respiratory tracts of turkeys and other birds. It causes a highly contagious bordetellosis.

Biochemical and Immunological Comparison of Lipopolysaccharides from Bordetella Species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1990
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica were analysed for their chemical composition, molecular heterogeneity and immunological properties. All the LPS preparations contained heptose, 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid, glucosamine, uronic acid, phosphate and fatty acids.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Lipopolysaccharide bioengineering in Bordetella species

open access: yes, 2023
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica are pathogenic bacteria responsible for respiratory diseases in mammals, including humans. B. pertussis causes whooping cough in humans, primarily affecting young children. Vaccines against B. pertussis consisting of whole-cell inactivated bacteria were introduced globally in the 1940s, leading to a ...

Bacteremia caused by a novel Bordetella species, "B. hinzii" [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1994
Bordetella spp. cause respiratory tract diseases in warm-blooded animals. Only Bordetella bronchiseptica has been reported to cause bacteremia in humans, and this rare infection usually occurs with pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. We describe "Bordetella hinzii" bacteremia in an AIDS patient without a respiratory illness.

Nasal Bacterial Microbiome: Probing a Healthy Porcine Family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Upper respiratory tract (URT) infection caused the leading and devastating diseases in pigs. It was believed that the normal microbiome of URT plays a vital role in health and disease development.

Characterization of a Bvg-regulated fatty acid methyl-transferase in Bordetella pertussis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis controls the expression of its large virulence regulon in a coordinated manner through the two-component signal transduction system BvgAS.

BopN is a Gatekeeper of the Bordetella Type III Secretion System

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The classical Bordetella species infect the respiratory tract of mammals. While B. bronchiseptica causes rather chronic respiratory infections in a variety of mammals, the human-adapted species B. pertussis and B.

Increase in pertussis cases along with high prevalence of two emerging genotypes of Bordetella pertussis in Perú, 2012 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...
