Interaction of theBordetella pertussisfilamentous hemagglutinin with heparin [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1991
Heparin, a glycosaminoglycan synthesized in connective tissue-mast cells, appeared to inhibit the hemagglutination of rabbit erythrocytes induced by the filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), a major adhesin of Bordetella pertussis. This inhibition suggested an interaction of heparin with the FHA region responsible for the hemagglutination activity.

Expression of Bordetella pertussis Antigens Fused to Different Vectors and Their Effectiveness as Vaccines

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Pertussis is an acute respiratory tract infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. Even though its current vaccine coverage is relatively broad, they still have some shortcomings such as short protection time and might be incapable of blocking the spread ...

Role of antibody to leukocytosis-promoting factor hemagglutinin and to filamentous hemagglutinin in immunity to pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1981
Gamma globulins were obtained from rabbits hyperimmunized with the filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) or the leukocytosis-promoting factor hemagglutinin (LPF.HA) of Bordetella pertussis. Double immunodiffusion analyses showed the antibodies to be highly specific for the homologous antigen.

Antigenic Analysis of Bordetella pertussis Filamentous Hemagglutinin with Phage Display Libraries and Rabbit Anti-Filamentous Hemagglutinin Polyclonal Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1998
ABSTRACT Although substantial advancements have been made in the development of efficacious acellular vaccines against Bordetella pertussis , continued progress requires better understanding of the antigenic makeup of B.

Haemophilus ducreyi Secretes a Filamentous Hemagglutinin-Like Protein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1998
ABSTRACT We have identified two extremely large open reading frames (ORFs) in Haemophilus ducreyi 35000, lspA1 and lspA2 , each of which encodes a predicted protein product whose N-terminal half is approximately 43% similar to the N-terminal half of

Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a newly developed tri-component diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine in a murine model

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2018
Background/Purpose: Although assessing the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of acellular pertussis (aP) vaccines via murine model studies faces limitations, preliminary assessments have been achieved by evaluating respiratory challenge and humoral ...

Surface-associated filamentous hemagglutinin induces autoagglutination of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1994
Filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) is a major adhesin produced by Bordetella pertussis, the etiologic agent of whooping cough. FHA has been shown to be surface associated but is also secreted by virulent bacteria. Microscopic observations of lungs of mice infected with B. pertussis showed that the bacteria grow as clusters within the alveolar lumen.

Peroxin 14 tags peroxisomes and interacts with Nbr1 for pexophagy in the filamentous insect pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2023
Pexophagy is a main pathway for selective degradation of peroxisomes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying pexophagy remain fragmented in the filamentous fungi.

Serological response to filamentous hemagglutinin and lymphocytosis-promoting toxin of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1983
Serum antibody responses to the filamentous hemagglutinin and the lymphocytosis-promoting toxin of Bordetella pertussis after vaccination with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine, adsorbed, were assayed by using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
