Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae: The Role of N-Acetyl-5-Neuraminic Acid in Biology

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
NTHi is an exclusive human pathogen, which has evolved a number of unique mechanisms to survive within the human environment. An important part of this is the ability of the organism to take up and incorporate sialic acid into its surface structures ...

IMMUNE RESPONSE TO NONTYPABLE HAEMOPHILUS INFLUENZAE [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1987
The antibody response to nontypable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHI) was determined in the normal population and in children with otitis media by an immunodot assay. Preliminary studies confirmed the specificity and IgG nature of the antibody measured.

Changing Landscape of Haemophilus influenzae Meningitis and Implication on Public Health

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Haemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) has evolved as a prominent pathogen, with nontypeable strains (NTHi) emerging as a leading cause of invasive disease, particularly among the elderly. Since the introduction of Haemophilus influenzae B (Hib) vaccine, invasive infection has shifted from children with Hib to the elderly with NTHi.

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae induces sustained lung oxidative stress and protease expression. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a prevalent bacterium found in a variety of chronic respiratory diseases. The role of this bacterium in the pathogenesis of lung inflammation is not well defined.

A Case of Haemophilus haemolyticus Meningitis

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
Haemophilus haemolyticus is a gram-negative bacillus respiratory tract commensal with reduced capacity to invade mucosal epithelia. Nontypeable (that is, nonencapsulated) Haemophilus influenzae and H haemolyticus are difficult to differentiate from each ...

Generation of Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae Directed Gene Deletion Mutants

Bio-Protocol, 2014
Directed deletion mutants in non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae can be made by allelic exchange of the target gene with an artificial DNA construct in which an antibiotic resistance cassette is placed between two ~1,000 bp DNA sequences that are ...

Vaccines for Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae: the Future Is Now

Clinical and Vaccine Immunology, 2015
ABSTRACTInfections due to nontypeableHaemophilus influenzaeresult in enormous global morbidity in two clinical settings: otitis media in children and respiratory tract infections in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Recurrent otitis media affects up to 20% of children and results in hearing loss, delays in speech and language ...

Whole-genome sequencing of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae isolated from a tertiary care hospital in Surabaya, Indonesia

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Haemophilus influenzae causes life-threatening invasive diseases such as septicaemia and meningitis. Reports on circulating H. influenzae causing invasive disease in lower-middle income settings, including Indonesia, are lacking.
