Limited response of primary nasal epithelial cells to <i>Bordetella pertussis</i> infection and the effector protein BteA
2025-02-03
Abstract excerpt
Bordetella pertussis is a Gram-negative coccobacillus that causes whooping cough or pertussis, a respiratory disease that has recently experienced a resurgence. Upon entering the respiratory tract, B. pertussis colonizes the airway epithelium and attaches to ciliated cells.
