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...

The Bordetella bronchiseptica Type III Secretion System Inhibits Gamma Interferon Production That Is Required for Efficient Antibody-Mediated Bacterial Clearance

Pilione, Mylisa R., Harvill, Eric T.

Several species of pathogenic microorganisms have developed strategies to survive and persist in vital organs which are normally maintained as sterile by the generation of strong immune responses....
