A Novel Adhesin of <i>B. pertussis</i> is Key to Colonisation of Epithelial Cells

2024-09-23

Abstract excerpt

Despite effective vaccines to protect against Whooping cough, or pertussis, the disease is resurgent in many countries. A switch from acellular to whole-cell vaccines has resulted in waning protective immunity, likely contributing to increases in infection prevalence, underlining the need to better understand B. pertussis virulence. As a respiratory pathogen, B. pertussis colonises the upper respiratory tract ut...
