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.

Novel cyclic di-GMP effectors of the YajQ protein family control bacterial virulence [PDF]
Bis-(3 ',5 ') cyclic di-guanylate (cyclic di-GMP) is a key bacterial second messenger that is implicated in the regulation of many critical processes that include motility, biofilm formation and virulence.

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.

Rebound of Respiratory Virus Activity and Seasonality to Pre‐Pandemic Patterns
ABSTRACT The emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 and the implementation of non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) profoundly disrupted the transmission dynamics of respiratory viruses, altering their epidemiology and seasonality. However, comprehensive long‐term data on these shifts and their post‐pandemic implications remain limited.

Construction of Minitransposons for Constitutive and Inducible Expression of Pertussis Toxin in Bvg-Negative Bordetella-Bronchiseptica [PDF]
Appropriately detoxified pertussis toxin (PT) of Bordetella pertussis is considered to be an essential component of new-generation whooping cough vaccines, but the development of a procedure to obtain high levels of purified toxin has been and continues ...

Virulence factors of Bordetella bronchiseptica associated with the production of infectious atrophic rhinitis and pneumonia in experimentally infected neonatal swine [PDF]
Four strains of Bordetella bronchiseptica (CSU-P-1, 64-C-0406, 1120-A-83-013, and B205BT) with defined virulence for neonatal swine were examined, and an attempt was made to correlate the presence of certain in vitro phenotypic characteristics with the ability of a particular 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

Targeting virulence not viability in the search for future antibacterials [PDF]
New antibacterials need new approaches to overcome the problem of rapid antibiotic resistance. Here we review the development of potential new antibacterial drugs that do not kill bacteria or inhibit their growth, but combat disease instead by targeting ...

Microbial communities on potato tubers in northern Thailand were studied with 16S and ITS amplicon sequencing. It was found that soil pH and organic matter are key drivers of bacterial and fungal composition, affecting the balance between pathogens and beneficial microbes.

Disease risk assessment was conducted for the Saving Wildcats reintroduction project of captive‐bred European Wildcats (Felis silvestris) to the Cairngorms National Park. Hazards were identified, and appropriate pre‐and post‐release mitigation strategies were identified and implemented, illustrating the direct conservation application and significance ...
