15 صفحه اولRegulation of pertussis toxin and lipopolysaccharide levels of Bordetella pertussis 134 in response to modulators
Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious disease of the human respiratory tract, which is caused by Bordetella pertussis. Reemerge of pertussis in some highly immunized populations and divergency in gene order among several B. pertussis strains promoted this research to study the change of pertussis toxin (PT) and lipopolysacharide levels in response to the different environments. Th...
متن کاملMolecular aspects of Bordetella pertussis pathogenesis.
The molecular mechanisms of Bordetella virulence are now well understood, and many virulence factors have been identified and characterized at the molecular level. These virulence factors can be grouped into two major categories: adhesins, such as filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin and fimbriae, and toxins, such as pertussis toxin, adenylate cyclase, dermonecrotic toxin and tracheal cytotoxin...
متن کاملEvaluation of PCR for diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis infections.
PCR, using primers Plp1 and Plp2, was evaluated for the detection of DNA from Bordetella pertussis in bacterial strains and in nasopharyngeal samples from patients with a cough lasting at least 7 days. The assay could detect DNA from 6 CFU of B. pertussis/10 microl of sample. Results of the PCR assay were compared with those of cultures, a determination of serum antibodies against pertussis tox...
متن کاملBordetella pertussis and pertussis vaccines.
Bordetella pertussis is a human-specific pathogen that causes whooping cough. The use of pertussis whole-cell vaccines in infants and toddlers led to decreased circulation of the bacterium in the child population and a marked decrease in the incidence of the disease. However, vaccine does not result in life-long immunity; indeed, the circulation of the bacterium has not been controlled in the a...
