The Glaesserella parasuis phosphoglucomutase is partially required for lipooligosaccharide synthesis [PDF]
AbstractLipooligosaccharides (LOSs) are virulence determinants of Glaesserella parasuis, a pathogen of the respiratory tract of pigs. We previously reported that disruption of the galU or galE gene in G. parasuis results in increased sensitivity to porcine serum, indicating that the galactose catabolism pathway is required for polysaccharide formation ...

Design of B-Cell Multi-Epitope Subunit Vaccines Against <i>Glaesserella parasuis</i> by Reverse Vaccinology: An In Silico and In Vivo Study. [PDF]
Glässer’s disease caused by Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) is a severe disease that results in substantial economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. Here we describe a multiepitope vaccine cocktail (MEVC) that was designed using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics. The MEVC was comprised of three multiepitope subunits (MESs, designated as TB,

Pathotyping and molecular serotyping of clinical isolates of Glaesserella parasuis in Taiwan. [PDF]
Glaesserella parasuis is a bacterial pathogen that causes severe economic losses in the swine industry worldwide. In this study, 262 G. parasuis isolates from pigs with Glässer's disease obtained between 2015 and 2022 in Taiwan were serotyped, pathotyped, and analyzed for virulence genes. The most prevalent serovars were 5 (29%), 4 (27.9%), 12 (12.2%),

Importance of strain selection in the generation of heterologous immunity to Glaesserella (Haemophilus) parasuis [PDF]
Glaesserella (Haemophilus) parasuis is a part of the microbiota of healthy pigs and also causes the systemic condition called Glässer's disease. G. parasuis is categorized by it capsular polysaccharide into 15 serovars. Because of the serovar and strain specific immunity generated by whole cell vaccines and the rapid onset of disease, G.

Glaesserella parasuis autotransporters EspP1 and EspP2 are novel IgA-specific proteases
BackgroundGlaesserella parasuis causes Glässer’s disease, which is associated with severe polyarthritis, fibrinous polyserositis and meningitis, and leads to significant economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. IgA is one of the most important humoral immune factors present on mucosal surfaces, and it plays a crucial role in neutralizing and ...

Sow Vaccination Against Virulent Glaesserella Parasuis Shapes the Nasal Microbiota of Their Offspring [PDF]
Abstract Glaesserella parasuis is the etiological agent of Glässer’s disease, a common pathology in the pork industry with higher prevalence in the postweaning period. Vaccination is one of the strategies to control this disease. Here, we investigated the effect that sow vaccination against virulent strains of G.

Pig nasal and rectal microbiotas are involved in the antibody response to Glaesserella parasuis. [PDF]
Abstract Vaccination stands as one of the most sustainable and promising strategies to control infectious diseases in animal production. Nevertheless, the causes for antibody response variation among individuals are poorly understood. The animal microbiota has been shown to be involved in the correct development and function of the host ...
