Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis induces a unique pulmonary inflammatory response: role of bacterial gene expression in temporal regulation of host defense responses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 induced microparticulate caspase-1/gasdermin-D activation is regulated by NLRP3 independent of Pyrin.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Although the study of pathogen sensing by host defense systems continues to uncover a role for inflammasome components specific to particular pathogens, gaps remain in our knowledge.

Co-Occurrence of Francisella, Spotted Fever Group Rickettsia, and Midichloria in Avian-Associated Hyalomma rufipes

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The migratory behavior of wild birds contributes to the geographical spread of ticks and their microorganisms. In this study, we aimed to investigate the dispersal and co-occurrence of Francisella and spotted fever group Rickettsia (SFGR) in ticks ...

Increased Sensitivity of Amoeba-Grown Francisella Species to Disinfectants

open access: yes, 2020
Francisella tularensis is a highly infectious, intracellular bacterium and it is the causative agent of tularemia. The bacterium has been isolated from more than 250 species, including protozoa.

Construction of a New Phage Integration Vector pFIV-Val for Use in Different Francisella Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
We recently identified and described a putative prophage on the genomic island FhaGI-1 located within the genome of Francisella hispaniensis AS02-814 (F. tularensis subsp. novicida-like 3523).

The Francisella intracellular life cycle: towards molecular mechanisms of intracellular survival and proliferation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2010
The tularemia-causing bacterium Francisella tularensis is a facultative intracellular organism with a complex intracellular lifecycle that ensures its survival and proliferation in a variety of mammalian cell types, including professional phagocytes ...

Nlrp3 Increases the Host’s Susceptibility to Tularemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Francisella tularensis (F. tularensis) is a Gram-negative, intracellular bacterium and the causative agent of a fatal human disease known as tularemia. The CDC has classified F.

Francisella tularensis,Portugal

open access: yesEmerging 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.

Francisella novicida pathogenicity island encoded proteins were secreted during infection of macrophage-like cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Intracellular pathogens and other organisms have evolved mechanisms to exploit host cells for their life cycles. Virulence genes of some intracellular bacteria responsible for these mechanisms are located in pathogenicity islands, such as secretion ...
