It is responsible for cases of polyserositis, meningitis and pneumonia in young pigs. To date, 15 serotypes have been described, although several non-typable isolates are frequently recovered from diseased animals. The pathogenesis of<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>infection is poorly understood. To cause meningitis,<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>would have to cross the blood\u2013brain barrier (BBB), composed of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC). The objective of this study was to investigate the ability of<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>to interact with porcine brain microvascular endothelial cells (PBMEC). It was demonstrated that the serotype 5 reference strain of<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>, Nagasaki (originally recovered from a case of meningitis), was able to adhere at very high levels to and, most importantly, invade PBMEC. These capacities were confirmed by electron microscopy.<jats:italic>Actinobacillus pleuropnemoniae<\/jats:italic>serotype 7 (strain WF 83), used as negative control, was not able to adhere to or invade PBMEC. Comparisons of the levels of adhesion and invasion by several<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>field strains from different serotypes isolated from cases of either meningitis or pneumonia showed that isolates of serotypes 4 and 5 had a higher invasion capacity than isolates belonging to other serotypes. Inhibition studies demonstrated that PBMEC invasion by<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>required rearrangement of actin microfilaments and microtubular cytoskeletal elements but not active bacterial DNA, RNA or protein synthesis. Characterization studies demonstrated that proteinaceous invasin(s) does not seem to play a major role in entry of<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>into PBMEC. Intracellular viable<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>were found in PBMEC up to 6\u2005h after antibiotic treatment. Even at high bacterial doses,<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>was not toxic to PBMEC. In swine, the invasion of endothelial cells of the BBB may play an important role in the pathogenesis of meningitis caused by<jats:italic>H. parasuis<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1099\/mic.0.28312-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,12,29]],"date-time":"2005-12-29T22:12:44Z","timestamp":1135894364000},"page":"135-142","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":59,"title":["Haemophilus
