Regulation of Francisella Tularensis Virulence [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Francisella tularensis is one of the most virulent bacteria known and a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Category A select agent. It is able to infect a variety of animals and insects and can persist in the environment, thus Francisella spp. must be able to survive in diverse environmental niches. However, F.

Stringent response governs the oxidative stress resistance and virulence of Francisella tularensis

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Francisella tularensis is a Gram-negative bacterium responsible for causing tularemia in the northern hemisphere. F. tularensis has long been developed as a biological weapon due to its ability to cause severe illness upon inhalation of as few as ten ...

Rombencephalitis Caused by Francisella tularensis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Common presentations of tularemia include pneumonia and ulceroglandular, oropharyngeal, or typhoidal disease. Neuromeningeal involvement is extremely rare. We report a case of a severe rhombencephalitis due to Francisella tularensis .

The prevalence of Francisella spp. in different natural surface water samples collected from northwest of Iran

open access: yesIranian Journal of Microbiology, 2019
Background and Objectives: Francisella tularensis has a wide distribution in northern hemisphere of the world. Up to now, there was little information about the Francisella spp. situation in the environmental samples in Iran.

Molecular Investigation of Tularemia Outbreaks, Spain, 1997–2008 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tularemia outbreaks occurred in northwestern Spain in 1997–1998 and 2007–2008 and affected >1,000 persons. We assessed isolates involved in these outbreaks by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with 2 restriction enzymes and multilocus variable ...

CD200R deletion promotes a neutrophil niche for Francisella tularensis and increases infectious burden and mortality

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Pulmonary immune control is crucial for protection against pathogens. Here we identify a pathway that promotes host responses during pulmonary bacterial infection; the expression of CD200 receptor (CD200R), which is known to dampen pulmonary immune ...

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

open access: yesDrug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Interactions of Francisella tularensis with Alveolar Type II Epithelial Cells and the Murine Respiratory Epithelium. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Francisella tularensis is classified as a Tier 1 select agent by the CDC due to its low infectious dose and the possibility that the organism can be used as a bioweapon.
