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 ...

Association of Pertussis Toxin with Severe Pertussis Disease
Pertussis, caused by respiratory tract infection with the bacterial pathogen Bordetella pertussis, has long been considered to be a toxin-mediated disease. Bacteria adhere and multiply extracellularly in the airways and release several toxins, which have

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.

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1981
During the period July 1979 to April 1980 four pregnant women in one general practice were found to be suffering from pertussis. The diagnosis was based on clinical and serological evidence. The paper gives a clinical and bacteriological account of their progress and that of their babies.

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

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2006
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

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1997
Throughout this century infants and young children have remained most susceptible to pertussis-related morbidity and mortality. In recent years infants younger than 6 months who are not old enough to have received three doses of the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine and under-vaccinated preschool children have been at highest risk for pertussis ...

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¬
