Concern over adverse reactions temporally associated with whole cell pertussis vaccine and advances in the understanding of the Bordetella pertussis organism have led to a new generation of more purified acellular vaccines. The biology of the pertussis organism, epidemiology of disease, vaccine development over the decades, and vaccine efficacy and ...

Pertussis is a highly communicable respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. In spite of the widespread availability of effective vaccines and high levels of vaccination coverage, a significant resurgence in pertussis has been observed during the past 2 decades. The increase in reported cases is due in large part to infection in adolescents

Sir .—It was with a mixture of interest and personal chagrin that I read the article by Larter et al 1 on polymyxin B sulfate and pertussis vaccine—interest because I have been a sometime advocate of this particular application of the endotoxin-inactivating activity of polymyxin B, but chagrin that, in this narrow field, reference to my own publication

This review addresses the epidemiology of pertussis based on: (1) reported pertussis; (2) the increase in reported cases during the last 22 years; and (3) the data supporting the endemnicity of Bordetella pertussis infection in adolescents and adults. This topic has been addressed previously as well as covered briefly in the Pertussis Update in Concise

Despite the increasing prevalence of pertussis in young adults and infants, reports of maternal-neonatal pertussis are rare. Our study involves three neonates who apparently acquired pertussis from their adolescent mothers. The diagnosis of pertussis was initially missed in all of the patients. The mothers had mild respiratory disease.

Pertussis toxin (Bordetella pertussis)
1997Abstract PT (Sekura et al. 1985) is a protein of 105 000 daltons composed of five noncovalently linked subunits named 51 through 55, and organized into two functional domains called A and B (Tamura et al. 1982). The A domain, which is composed of the 51 subunit, is an enzyme that intoxicates eukaryotic cells by ADP-ribosylating their GTP¬

This paper reports a one-month-old female with a one-week history of low grade fever and rhinorrhea, and one day of intermittent cough and cyanosis. The signs and symptoms are typical for pertussis in an infant less than six months old. The incidence of pertussis in the neonate and infant appears to be increasing.
