Bordetella pertussis Induces Interferon Gamma Production by Natural Killer Cells, Resulting in Chemoattraction by Respiratory Epithelial Cells
BACKGROUND: Whooping cough is caused by infection of the airways with Bordetella pertussis (Bp). As interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is essential for protective immunity against Bp, we investigated how IFN-γ is induced by Bp or the virulence antigens filamentous hemagglutinin adhesin, pertactin, or pertussi...
