Bordetella bronchiseptica is a Gram-negative bacterium capable of colonizing the respiratory tract of a large range of mammalian hosts, including mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs, pigs, sheep, horses, and bears [1] . bronchiseptica or its LPS in an isolated manner by using a model that more closely reflects the in vivo conditions (i.e., reconstructing the architecture and cell relationships of the respiratory epithelium in a natural host of this microorganism) has not been documented. In this work, LPS induced a higher infiltration of PMN in the respiratory epithelium and the propria of nasal septa than did the bacterium. B. bronchiseptica and its LPS distribution on the nasal septum respiratory epithelium were evaluated by the indirect immunoperoxidase and lectin histochemistry techniques. ./cache/cord-000920-68eblcke.txt ./txt/cord-000920-68eblcke.txt
