Early infection-induced natural antibody response
Scientific Reports, 2021 There remains to this day a great gap in understanding as to the role of B cells and their products—antibodies and cytokines—in mediating the protective response to Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative coccobacillus belonging to the group of ...

Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis induces a unique pulmonary inflammatory response: role of bacterial gene expression in temporal regulation of host defense responses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Pulmonary exposure to Francisella tularensis is associated with severe lung pathology and a high mortality rate. The lack of induction of classical inflammatory mediators, including IL1-β and TNF-α, during early infection has led to the suggestion that F.

Francisella tularensis,Portugal
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007 To the Editor: Tularemia is a zoonosis caused by Francisella tularensis. Recently, tularemia has emerged in new locations, populations, and settings (1). After an outbreak in Spain in 1997 (2), it was expected that the disease would spread toward Portugal, a country with an extended area that borders the affected areas.
