TheBordetella pertussis Bps polysaccharide enhances lung colonization by conferring protection from complement-mediated killing

20 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

Bordetella pertussis is a human-restricted Gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes whooping cough or pertussis. Pertussis is the leading vaccine preventable disease that is resurging in the USA and other parts of the developed world. There is an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms by which B. pertussis evades killing and clearance by the complement system, a first line of host innate immune defence....
