The Bordetella Secreted Regulator BspR Is Translocated into the Nucleus of Host Cells via Its N-Terminal Moiety: Evaluation of Bacterial Effector Translocation by the Escherichia coli Type III Secretion System. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Bordetella bronchiseptica is genetically related to B. pertussis and B. parapertussis, which cause respiratory tract infections in humans. These pathogens possess a large number of virulence factors, including the type III secretion system (T3SS), which ...

Variation in the Bordetella pertussis Virulence Factors Pertussis Toxin and Pertactin in Vaccine Strains and Clinical Isolates in Finland [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1999 ABSTRACT There is evidence that pertussis is reemerging in vaccinated populations. We have proposed, and provided evidence for, one explanation for this phenomenon in The Netherlands: antigenic divergence between vaccine strains and circulating strains.

New Data on Vaccine Antigen Deficient Bordetella pertussis Isolates
Vaccines, 2015 Evolution of Bordetella pertussis is driven by natural and vaccine pressures. Isolates circulating in regions with high vaccination coverage present multiple allelic and antigenic variations as compared to isolates collected before introduction of ...

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.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.

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.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 ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1990 Regulation of the genes coding for virulence factors in Bordetella pertussis is controlled by the bvg locus, which encodes one putative sensory protein (BvgS) and one positive regulator of transcription (BvgA). We have studied the transcription of the bvg locus and found that this is controlled by a 350-base-pair DNA fragment, which contains five ...

Effect of mutations causing overexpression of RNA polymerase alpha subunit on regulation of virulence factors in Bordetella pertussis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1994 In Bordetella pertussis, expression of virulence factors is controlled by the Bvg proteins, which comprise a sensor-regulator two-component signal transduction system. Previously, we described a mutant strain of B. pertussis that had reduced transcription of pertussis toxin and adenylate cyclase toxin genes, while other virulence factors were ...

Case Reports in Pulmonology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.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.
