Mutagenesis of a Bordetella Virulence Protein
Pertussis is a highly contagious human respiratory illness caused by the bacterial pathogen Bordetella pertussis. In animals, Bordetella bronchiseptica causes kennel cough, a similar respiratory illness. B.

Significance of Bordetella bronchiseptica in Respiratory Tract Infections of Canines
Bordetella bronchiseptica is one of the major pathogens affecting canine respiratory tract. The agent is transmitted through aerosol mode, contact with contaminated faces or urine as well as through infected fomites. The agent affects all age groups and

This case illustrates features of ground glass changes on radiology in a patient who was immunosuppressed with biologics. Microbiology confirmed infection with Bordetella bronchiseptica, highlighting the importance of looking for atypical infections in patients receiving biologics and the importance of pet ownership history.

The BvgAS Regulon of
Nearly all virulence factors in Bordetella pertussis are activated by a master two-component system, BvgAS, composed of the sensor kinase BvgS and the response regulator BvgA.

Biofilm‐related infections significantly contribute to bacterial diseases, with estimates suggesting that at least 80% of such infections are associated with biofilms. These infections often involve opportunistic pathogens, which not only influence the type of infection but also impact the microenvironment by interacting with other polymicrobial ...

Bordetella pertussis strains, which have lost the ability to produce antigens, such as pertactin - Prn, pertussis toxin - Ptx, filamentous haemagglutinin - FHA, fimbriae type 2 and 3 - Fim 2 and 3, tracheal colonization factor - TcfA, have recently been isolated in countries with a high vaccination coverage.

Evolutionary trade-offs underlie the multi-faceted virulence of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Date of Acceptance: 20/07/2015Bacterial virulence is a multifaceted trait where the interactions between pathogen and host factors affect the severity and outcome of the infection. Toxin secretion is central to the biology of many bacterial pathogens and

Necrotizing pneumonia and empyema caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum are uncommon. The classical presentation of Lemierre′s syndrome, characterized by pharyngotonsillitis and internal jugular vein thrombosis, is not always observed, and incomplete and atypical variants can cause diagnostic uncertainty and delay in treatment.

Bordetella Type III Secretion Injectosome and Effector Proteins
Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a resurging acute respiratory disease of humans primarily caused by the Gram-negative coccobacilli Bordetella pertussis, and less commonly by the human-adapted lineage of B. parapertussisHU.
