Monoclonal antibodies that specifically agglutinate strains of Bordetella pertussis having serotype 1 agglutinogen were uniquely reactive with the electrophoretically slow-migrating A form of lipooligosaccharide. These monoclonal antibodies should be useful for the structural analysis of B. pertussis lipooligosaccharide and for the establishment of a better-defined serogroup for Bordetella spec...
Bordetella pertussis was diagnosed in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient by a newly developed method in which bacterial DNA is amplified directly from sputum Gram-stained slides. The validation of the method is described along with an additional new PCR-based assay that can distinguish between B. pertussis and Bordetella holmesii.
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are closely related endemic human pathogens which cause whooping cough, a disease that is reemerging in human populations. Despite how closely related these pathogens are, their coexistence and the limited efficacy of B. pertussis vaccines against B. parapertussis suggest a lack of cross-protective immunity between the two. We sought to address ...
BACKGROUND During 9 May 2010-7 May 2011, an outbreak of pertussis-like illness (incidence, 80 cases per 100 000 persons) occurred in Franklin County, Ohio. The majority of cases were identified by IS481-directed polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which does not differentiate among Bordetella species. We sought to determine outbreak etiology and epidemiologic characteristics. METHODS We obtained...
The surface proteins of several Bordetella strains and their modulated derivatives were examined by surface radioiodination, cell fractionation, and Western blotting. A surface protein with a high Mr, missing in a mutant lacking the filamentous hemagglutinin, was identified in virulent Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis cells and was absent in avirulent B. pertussis strains. The ...
Chlorpromazine, the prototype phenothiazine tranquilizer, inhibited the growth and killed organisms of the genus Bordetella. There were striking differences, however, among the three Bordetella species. Bordetella pertussis was most susceptible, with some inhibition of growth at greater than or equal to 4 micrograms/ml and killing at 16 micrograms of chlorpromazine per ml. Bordetella parapertus...
Recently, concern has been voiced about the potential effect that antigenic divergence of circulating strains of Bordetella pertussis might have on the efficacy of pertussis vaccines. In order to model antigenic drift of pertussis toxin, a critical component of many pertussis vaccines, and to examine the effects of such drift on antibody neutralization, we engineered a strain of B. pertussis to...
considering the circulation of bordetella pertussis clinical strains among populations with high vaccination coverage, it is necessary to have a proper understanding of this bacterium causing whooping cough. various techniques, which are available for studying b. pertussis, can facilitate a proper comparison between different populations. we genotypically analyzed a collection of two vaccine st...
pertussis is still endemic and the recently resurgence of the disease caused by bordetella pertussis has been shown in many countries. the polymorphism of the virulence genes of b. pertussis and lack of any information about the allelic variation between the iranian isolates promotes us to analysis of the genes encoded virulence factors including ptxs1, prn, fim3 and cya to understand the diffe...
background and objective: due to contagiousness of pertussis, a rapid and sensitive method for diagnosis is required to initiate the treatment and interrupt its transmission. materials and methods: to detect b. pertussis strains, we used two real-time pcr targeting is 481 and bp283 sequences and compared factors influencing culture and real-time pcr results. results: totally, 779 specimens were...
