Role of Bordetella O Antigen in Respiratory Tract Infection

Burns, Valorie C., Pishko, Elizabeth J., Preston, Andrew, Maskell, Duncan J., Harvill, Eric T.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), as the major surface molecule of gram-negative bacteria, interacts with the host in complex ways, both inducing and protecting against aspects of inflammatory and adaptive...

Bordetella pertussis Acquires Resistance to Complement-Mediated Killing In Vivo

Pishko, Elizabeth J., Betting, David J., Hutter, Christina S., Harvill, Eric T.

In order to initially colonize a host, bacteria must avoid various components of the innate immune system, one of which is complement. The genus Bordetella includes three closely related species that...

pagP Is Required for Resistance to Antibody-Mediated Complement Lysis during Bordetella bronchiseptica Respiratory Infection

Pilione, Mylisa R., Pishko, Elizabeth J., Preston, Andrew, Maskell, Duncan J., Harvill, Eric T.

To efficiently colonize and persist in the lower respiratory tract, bacteria must survive multiple host immune mechanisms. Bordetella bronchiseptica is a gram-negative respiratory pathogen that...
