Conservation and global distribution of non-canonical antigens in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) cause significant diarrheal morbidity and mortality in children of resource-limited regions, warranting development of effective vaccine strategies.

Characterization of a Putative Hemolysin Expressed by Sneathia amnii, a Preterm Birth-associated Pathogen [PDF]
The gram-negative bacteria Sneathia amnii is a poorly-characterized commensal of the female urogenital tract frequently associated with adverse clinical outcomes such as bacterial vaginosis (BV), amnionitis, and preterm labor.

Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious diseases. [PDF]
Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious agents may result from disruption of normal host barriers or dysregulation of cellular immunity, the latter serving to promote survival of the infectious agent through immune evasion.

Nasal Bacterial Microbiome: Probing a Healthy Porcine Family [PDF]
Upper respiratory tract (URT) infection caused the leading and devastating diseases in pigs. It was believed that the normal microbiome of URT plays a vital role in health and disease development.

Continuing evolution of Burkholderia mallei through genome reduction and large-scale rearrangements [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei (Bm), the causative agent of the predominately equine disease glanders, is a genetically uniform species that is very closely related to the much more diverse species Burkholderia pseudomallei (Bp), an opportunistic human pathogen and

Determination of Serum Antibody to Bordetella pertussis Adenylate Cyclase Toxin in Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Children and in Children and Adults with Pertussis [PDF]
Presence of antibody to adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) has been noted following Bordetella pertussis infection. Because ACT is not presently in any acellular pertussis vaccines, it has been considered as a possible antigen to use in B.

Cooperative role of antibodies against heat-labile toxin and the EtpA adhesin in preventing toxin delivery and intestinal colonization by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is an important cause of diarrheal disease in developing countries, where it is responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths each year.

[Immunobiologic activity of Bordetella pertussis strains defective in various virulence factors].
The immunobiological properties of mutant strains, selectively deprived of certain antigens (hemagglutinin, B. pertussis toxin, dermonecrotic toxin, hemolysin, adenylate cyclase), have been studied with the aim of finding out the relationship between the presence of certain antigens in microbial strains and their protective properties.
