Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of highly communicable respiratory infection whooping cough (pertussis) which remains one of the world's leading causes of vaccine-preventable deaths. In the present study, total soluble proteins extracted from two B. pertussis strains, Tohama I and the local isolate Saadet were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and analyzed by Western blotting for their reactivity with the antisera obtained from the mice immunized with inactivated whole cells as well as those collected from the mice challenged intraperitoneally with live cells of each strain. Of a total of 25 immunogenic proteins identified, 21 were shown to be the novel antigens for B. pertussis.

Pertussis Vaccines: State-of-the-Art and Future Trends Tefon, Burcu E.; Ozcengiz, Erkan; Özcengiz, Gülay (Bentham Science Publishers Ltd., 2013-10-01) Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of whooping cough ( pertussis) which is a worldwide vaccine preventable acute respiratory illness that predominantly involves infants. The reactogenicity of whole-cell (Pw) vaccines and the difficulty of their consistent production have led to the development of acellular pertussis (Pa) vaccines. However, despite high vaccination coverage using either Pw or Pa and introduction of adolescent and adult vaccines with reduced antigen content, there are still reports a...
Why were Turks unwilling to accept the A/H1N1 influenza-pandemic vaccination? People's beliefs and perceptions about the swine flu outbreak and vaccine in the later stage of the epidemic Gaygisiz, Ummugulsum; Gaygısız Lajunen, Esma; Özkan, Türker; Lajunen, Timo (Elsevier BV, 2010-12-16) This study investigated the acceptability of the A/H1N1 influenza vaccination and related factors among 1137 adults in the later stage of the A/H1N1 outbreak in Turkey. Having already been vaccinated or intending to get vaccinated were related to trust in the vaccine effectiveness, perceived risk of the side effects, and benefits of getting vaccinated. Perceived long term consequences of the A/H1N1 infection, perceptions of the A/H1N1 information in media, and barriers for getting vaccinated were related to...
Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of recombinant iron superoxide dismutase protein from Bordetella pertussis in mice models Yilmaz, Cigdem; Apak, Aycan; Ozcengiz, Erkan; Özcengiz, Gülay (Wiley, 2016-11-01) Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. Although availability of effective pertussis vaccines reportedly decreases the incidence of the disease, B. pertussis circulation in populations has not been eliminated. Thus, it is necessary to find new protein candidates with greater immune protective capacities than the currently available acellular pertussis vaccines. In this study, iron superoxide dismutase (FeSOD) gene (sodB) was cloned, expressed i...
Analysis of cross-immune reaction between strains of Bordetella Pertussis İşcan, Elvin; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biochemistry (2009) Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of whooping cough which is a worldwide acute respiratory disease that predominantly involves infants. Whooping cough is one of the ten most common causes of death from infectious diseases worldwide. The increased coverage of the primary pertussis vaccination (DaBT-IPA-Hib) decreased the incidence of disease in Turkey dramatically. However, in spite of the incidence decline, the circulation of B. pertussis has not yet been eliminated, and a change in the clinical s...
CpG oligodeoxynucleotides enhance neonatal resistance to Listeria infection. Ito, S; Ishii, KJ; Gürsel, Mayda; Shirotra, H; Ihata, A; Klinman, DM (The American Association of Immunologists, 2005-01-15) Infection by Listeria monocytogenes causes serious morbidity and mortality during the neonatal period. Previous studies established that immunostimulatory CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) can increased the resistance of adult mice to many infectious pathogens, including Listeria. This work examines the capacity of CpG ODN to stimulate a protective immune response in newborns. Results indicate that dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells from 3-day-old mice respond to CpG stimulation by secreting IFN- , IL-...
