Abstract
Despite widespread vaccination, B. pertussis remains one of the least controlled vaccine-preventable diseases. Although it is well known that acellular and whole cell pertussis vaccines induce distinct immune functionalities in memory cells, much less is known about the role of innate immunity in this process. In this review, we provide an overview of the known differences and similarities in innate receptors, innate immune cells and inflammatory signalling pathways induced by the pertussis vaccines either licensed or in development and compare this to primary infection with B. pertussis. Despite the crucial role of innate immunity in driving memory responses to B. pertussis, it is clear that a significant knowledge gap remains in our understanding of the early innate immune response to vaccination and infection. Such knowledge is essential to develop the next generation of pertussis vaccines with improved host defense against B. pertussis.

Abstract
Bordetella pertussis is the agent of pertussis, also referred to as whooping cough, a disease that remains an important public health issue. Vaccine-induced immunity to pertussis wanes over time. In industrialized countries, high vaccine coverage has not prevented infection and transmission of B. pertussis, leading to periodic outbreaks in people of all ages. The consequence is the formation of a large source for transmission to children, who show the highest susceptibility of developing severe whooping cough and mortality. With the aim of providing protection against both disease and infection, a live attenuated pertussis vaccine, in which three toxins have been genetically inactivated or removed, is now in clinical development. This vaccine, named BPZE1, offers strong protection in mice and non-human primates. It has completed a phase I clinical trial in which safety, transient colonization of the human airway and immunogenicity could be demonstrated. In mice, BPZE1 was also found to protect against inflammation resulting from heterologous airway infections, including those caused by other Bordetella species, influenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus. Furthermore, the heterologous protection conferred by BPZE1 was also observed for non-infectious inflammatory diseases, such as allergic asthma, as well as for inflammatory disorders outside of the respiratory tract, such as contact dermatitis. Current studies focus on the mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory effects associated with nasal BPZE1 administration. Given the increasing importance of inflammatory disorders, novel preventive and therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Therefore, live vaccines, such as BPZE1, may offer attractive solutions. It is now essential to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms of action before translating these biological findings into new healthcare solutions.

Abstract
Whooping cough, or pertussis, is resurgent in many countries world-wide. This is linked to switching from the use of whole cell vaccines to acellular vaccines in developed countries. Current evidence suggests that this has resulted in the earlier waning of vaccine-induced immunity, an increase in asymptomatic infection with concomitant increases in transmission and increased selection pressure for Bordetellapertussis variants that are better able to evade vaccine-mediated immunity than older isolates. This review discusses recent findings in B. pertussis epidemiology and evolution in the light of pertussis resurgence, and highlights the important role for genomics-based studies in monitoring B. pertussis adaptation.

Abstract
Past patterns of infectious disease transmission set the stage on which modern epidemiologic dynamics are played out. Here, we present a comprehensive account of pertussis (whooping cough) transmission in the United States during the early vaccine era. We analyzed recently digitized weekly incidence records from Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Reports from 1938 to 1955, when the whole-cell pertussis vaccine was rolled out, and related them to contemporary patterns of transmission and resurgence documented in monthly incidence data from the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System. We found that, during the early vaccine era, pertussis epidemics in US states could be categorized as 1) annual, 2) initially annual and later multiennial, or 3) multiennial. States with predominantly annual cycles tended to have higher per capita birth rates, more household crowding, more children per family, and lower rates of school attendance than the states with multiennial cycles. Additionally, states that exhibited annual epidemics during 1938-1955 have had the highest recent (2001-2010) incidence, while those states that transitioned from annual cycles to multiennial cycles have had relatively low recent incidence. Our study provides an extensive picture of pertussis epidemiology in the United States dating back to the onset of vaccination, a back-story that could aid epidemiologists in understanding contemporary transmission patterns.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Infants are at greatest risk for mortality from pertussis infection. Since 2005, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has recommended a cocooning strategy of vaccinating all close contacts of infants with tetanus, diptheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine to reduce the risk of transmitting pertussis. Difficulties in establishing a complete cocoon have been reported in the literature. We determined whether families of newborns could be fully immunized against pertussis, thereby providing a complete cocoon of protection. METHODS Tdap vaccine was offered during visiting hours to contacts aged 7 years and older and to postpartum patients who had not received Tdap vaccine during pregnancy. We then conducted retrospective phone interviews with randomly selected mothers (or other family members) to assess vaccination rates. We compared household vaccination rates during intervention and control periods and the demographic factors associated with Tdap vaccination of all members within the households. RESULTS During the intervention period, 243 postpartum patients and 1,287 other family members of newborns were immunized, with 84.8% of all family members receiving Tdap vaccination. Seventy-six percent of households reported a complete cocoon. In the control group, 52.2% of all family members received Tdap vaccination, and 29.3% of households had a complete cocoon. In the control group, fewer family members completed Tdap vaccination in the larger households than in the smaller households (p=0.008). CONCLUSION A cocooning strategy can be successfully implemented, such that the majority of newborns leave the hospital with their families fully immunized against pertussis.

Abstract
Vaccine development against pathogenic bacteria is an imperative initiative as bacteria are gaining resistance to current antimicrobial therapies and few novel antibiotics are being developed. Candidate antigens for vaccine development can be identified by a multitude of high-throughput technologies that were accelerated by access to complete genomes. While considerable success has been achieved in vaccine development against bacterial pathogens, many species with multiple virulence factors and modes of infection have provided reasonable challenges in identifying protective antigens. In particular, vaccine candidates should be evaluated in the context of the complex disease properties, whether planktonic (e.g. sepsis and pneumonia) and/or biofilm associated (e.g. indwelling medical device infections). Because of the phenotypic differences between these modes of growth, those vaccine candidates chosen only for their efficacy in one disease state may fail against other infections. This review will summarize the history and types of bacterial vaccines and adjuvants as well as present an overview of modern antigen discovery and complications brought about by polymicrobial infections. Finally, we will also use one of the better studied microbial species that uses differential, multifactorial protein profiles to mediate an array of diseases, Staphylococcus aureus, to outline some of the more recently identified problematic issues in vaccine development in this biofilm-forming species.

Abstract
Background Despite the extensive use of efficacious vaccines, pertussis still ranks among the major causes of childhood mortality worldwide. Two types of pertussis vaccines are currently available, whole-cell, and the more recent acellular vaccines. Because of reduced reactogenicity and comparable efficacy acellular vaccines progressively replace whole-cell vaccines. However, both types require repeated administrations for optimal efficacy. We have recently developed a live attenuated vaccine candidate, named BPZE1, able to protect infant mice after a single nasal administration. Methodology/Principal Findings We determined the protective mechanism of BPZE1-mediated immunity by using passive transfer of T cells and antibodies from BPZE1-immunized mice to SCID mice. Clearance of Bordetella pertussis from the lungs was mediated by both BPZE1-induced antibodies and CD4+, but not by CD8+ T cells. The protective CD4+ T cells comprised IFN-γ-producing and IL-17-producing subsets, indicating that BPZE1 induces both Th1 and Th17 CD4+ T cells. In addition, and in contrast to acellular pertussis vaccines, BPZE1 also cross-protected against Bordetella parapertussis infection, but in this case only the transfer of CD4+ T cells conferred protection. Serum from BPZE1-immunized mice was not able to kill B. parapertussis and did not protect SCID mice against B. parapertussis infection. Conclusions/Significance The novel live attenuated pertussis vaccine BPZE1 protects in a pre-clinical mouse model against B. pertussis challenge by both BPZE1-induced antibodies and CD4+ T cell responses. It also protects against B. parapertussis infection. However, in this case protection is only T cell mediated.

Abstract
Adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) is an important virulence factor of Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, and, in its detoxified form, a potential component of acellular pertussis vaccines. This study reports the application of a novel technology, formulation of CyaA as protein-coated microcrystals (PCMC), to improve the performance of CyaA as a vaccine component. CyaA is normally stored in a high urea concentration to prevent aggregation and to maintain stability of the protein. The aim of the work was to stabilise CyaA on a crystalline support to create a dry powder that could be reconstituted in aqueous buffer, free of urea. CyaA, formulated as PCMC with microcrystals of dl-valine, retained full adenylate cyclase (AC) and cell invasive (cytotoxic) activities after solubilistion in urea buffer. After storage as a dry powder at 37 degrees C for 2 weeks, the AC activity recovered from the CyaA-PCMC was only marginally reduced when solubilised in urea buffer. No AC activity was detected after attempts to solubilise CyaA-PCMC in aqueous buffer alone, in the absence of urea. Inclusion of various ionic, non-ionic or zwitterionic detergents in the aqueous buffer had little effect on recovery of CyaA activities. However, preparation of PCMC with CyaA plus calmodulin (CaM) or bovine serum albumin (BSA) or with both proteins allowed restoration of AC and cytotoxic activities of CyaA upon solubilisation in aqueous buffer. Incorporation of BSA and CaM with CyaA allowed essentially full recovery of AC activity but lower recovery of cytotoxicity. CyaA-CaM-BSA-PCMC, after reconstitution in aqueous buffer, induced a strong serum IgG response to CyaA when injected subcutaneously into mice.

Abstract
Four recombinant forms of the cell-invasive adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis were compared for the ability to enhance protection against B. pertussis in mice when coadministered with an acellular pertussis vaccine (ACV). The four forms were as follows: fully functional CyaA, a CyaA form lacking adenylate cyclase enzymatic activity (CyaA*), and the nonacylated forms of these toxins, i.e., proCyaA and proCyaA*, respectively. None of these forms alone conferred significant (P > 0.05) protection against B. pertussis in a murine intranasal challenge model. Mice immunized with ACV alone showed significant (P < 0.05) reductions in bacterial numbers in the lungs after intranasal challenge compared with those for control mice. When administered with ACV, both CyaA and CyaA* further reduced bacterial numbers in the lungs of mice after intranasal challenge compared with those for ACV-immunized mice, but the enhanced protection was only significant (P < 0.05) with CyaA*. Coadministration of CyaA* with ACV caused a significant (P < 0.05) increase in immunoglobulin G2a antibody levels against pertactin compared with those in mice immunized with ACV alone. Spleen cells from mice immunized with ACV plus CyaA* secreted larger amounts of interleukin-5 (IL-5), IL-6, gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) than did cells from mice immunized with ACV plus CyaA or ACV alone after stimulation in vitro with a mixture of B. pertussis antigens. Spleen cells from mice immunized with ACV plus CyaA* also secreted larger amounts of IFN-gamma and GM-CSF than did cells from mice immunized with CyaA* alone after stimulation in vitro with CyaA*. Macrophages from mice immunized with ACV plus CyaA* produced significantly (P < 0.05) higher levels of nitric oxide than did macrophages from mice immunized with CyaA* alone, ACV alone, or ACV plus CyaA after stimulation in vitro with a mixture of B. pertussis antigens or heat-killed B. pertussis cells. These data suggest that the enhancement of protection provided by CyaA* was due to an augmentation of both Th1 and Th2 immune responses to B. pertussis antigens.

Abstract
This study examined the ability of the adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis to act as a mucosal adjuvant for other antigens when co-administered by the intranasal route in mice. Two forms of CyaA were used: the cell-invasive, enzymically active form and a cell-invasive toxin lacking adenylate cyclase enzymic activity (CyaA*). Co-administration intranasally (i/n) of CyaA or CyaA* with ovalbumin (Ova) significantly enhanced (P<0.05) anti-Ova IgG and IgA antibody responses in the serum and anti-Ova IgA responses in lung and nasal secretions compared to those generated by immunisation i/n with Ova alone. The effects were greater with CyaA*. Administration of CyaA* with Ova induced priming of Ova-specific T cells in vivo to a greater extent than that obtained after immunisation with Ova alone. Co-administration of CyaA or CyaA* with pertactin (Prn) significantly enhanced (P<0.05) the serum anti-Prn IgG responses and immunisation with Prn and CyaA* significantly increased the anti-Prn IgA responses in the lungs compared with responses after immunisation with Prn alone. Immunisation i/n with Prn alone partially protected mice (P<0.05) against challenge i/n with B. pertussis. Co-administration of CyaA or CyaA* with pertactin (Prn) significantly increased protection (P<0.05) against challenge compared to that obtained with Prn alone. These effects were particularly apparent with CyaA* as the adjuvant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There currently are no population-based systems in the United States to rapidly detect adverse events after newly introduced vaccines. To evaluate the feasibility of developing such systems, we used 5 years of data from 4 health maintenance organizations within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Vaccine Safety Datalink. METHODS Within every year, each week's vaccinated children were followed for 4 weeks, and rates of adverse events were compared with rates among children of similar ages before the introduction of the new vaccine. We assessed risks for intussusception after rotavirus vaccination and risks for fever, seizures, and other neurologic adverse events after the change from whole cell diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTPw) to acellular DTP vaccine (DTPa). We used sequential probability ratio testing, adjusted for age, sex, calendar time, season, and HMO, and with a stopping value based on the probability of an adverse event under the null hypothesis and under a preset alternative hypothesis. RESULTS We detected an increase in intussusception after 2589 vaccine doses of rotavirus vaccine, about the same time initial reports of intussusception were made to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System. Decreases in risk for fever, seizures, and other abnormal neurologic events became detectable within 12 weeks, 42 weeks, and 18 months, respectively, after the change from DTPw to DTPa. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that it is feasible to develop systems for rapid and routine population-based assessments of new vaccine safety.

Abstract
The cell-invasive adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis was shown to be highly antigenic in mice, stimulating serum anti-CyaA IgG antibody responses which were able to neutralise the cytotoxic effect of CyaA on J774.2 macrophage-like cells. The effect of co-administration to mice of the fully functional CyaA toxin or a toxin lacking adenylate cyclase enzymic activity (CyaA*) with other antigens from B. pertussis, namely pertussis toxin (PT) or pertussis toxoid (PTd), filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA) and pertactin (PRN), was investigated. CyaA* enhanced the serum IgG antibody responses to each of these antigens whereas, with CyaA, only anti-PRN antibody titres showed a modest increase. Peritoneal macrophages and spleen cells, collected at 2 weeks post-immunisation, were cultured and tested for nitric oxide (NO) and IFNgamma production, respectively, after stimulation in vitro with heat-killed B. pertussis cells or CyaA proteins. NO and IFNgamma production were higher in cells collected from mice immunised with CyaA or CyaA* in combination with a PT, FHA and PRN antigen mixture than from those taken from mice injected with antigen mixture alone, again with CyaA* acting as a better adjuvant than CyaA. The apparent enhancement of immune responses to the antigen mixture by CyaA* in particular was not paralleled by increased protection of mice against aerosol challenge with B. pertussis, but a statistically significant increase in protection was seen after intranasal challenge with B. parapertussis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Animal data suggest an association between recent vaccination with a pertussis-containing vaccine and increased severity of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. We sought to determine whether such an association exists in humans by studying a population-based cohort of young children. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a nested case-control study of 280 children younger than 24 months of age hospitalized with RSV infection in Olmsted County, MN from January 1990 to December 1999. Controls (2 per case) consisted of nonhospitalized residents of Olmsted County matched to cases by date of birth and sex. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for the odds of hospitalization for RSV infection among subjects with a recent pertussis-containing vaccination in proximity to the cases' date of hospitalization relative to the odds among subjects with no vaccination. RESULTS The OR for receipt of a pertussis-containing vaccine within 0 to 6 days of a case's hospitalization for RSV disease was 0.8 (95% CI 0.4-1.8). For the time intervals 7-13, 14-20 and > or =21 days, the OR were 1.3 (95% CI 0.5-3.0), 1.3 (95% CI 0.5-3.2) and 0.7 (95% CI 0.3-1.5), respectively. Adjusting for vaccine delay and for risk status did not alter the findings. The median interval between the most recent pertussis-containing vaccine and the case's date of hospitalization was 40 days for cases and 42.5 days for controls (P = 0.69). Among the RSV cases, pertussis vaccination in the month preceding hospitalization was not a risk factor for oxygen requirement (P = 0.82), intensive care unit admission (P = 0.46) or need for mechanical ventilation (P = 0.28). CONCLUSION In our study, recent immunization with a pertussis-containing vaccine was not a risk factor for hospitalization for RSV infection. In addition, among children hospitalized with RSV infection, recent pertussis immunization was not associated with a more severe clinical course.

Abstract
To reduce the number of injections needed to comply with paediatric vaccination requirements, a liquid, hexavalent vaccine (DTaP-IPV-PRP-T-HBs; Hexavac; Aventis Pasteur MSD) has been developed for primary and booster vaccination of infants and toddlers. In extensive clinical studies, Hexavac has been shown to be highly immunogenic. Seroconversion or seroprotective titres of antibodies against all antigens were achieved in the majority of infants following a primary series of three doses administered at 1-2-month intervals from 2 months of age. Hexavac also induced immunologic memory, as evidenced by the anamnestic response to booster vaccination at 12-18 months of age. These responses were comparable with those seen following concomitant administration of Pentavac (DTaP-IPV//PRP-T) and monovalent hepatitis B vaccine (H-B-Vax II), and were also within the ranges observed for other relevant licensed vaccines. Clinical studies comparing the immunogenicity of Hexavac administered at either 2, 3 and 4 months or 2, 4 and 6 months demonstrated that it can be used by either vaccination schedule. A further study also supported the use of primary doses of Hexavac at 3 and 5 months with a booster at 12 months of age. Hexavac demonstrated a good reactogenicity and tolerability profile. The most frequently reported adverse events after both primary and booster doses were local reactions of redness and swelling/induration and a systemic response of mild fever, irrespective of the vaccine used for priming. Hexavac provided immunity against six important childhood diseases with a single injection at each visit.
