A galU mutant of francisella tularensis is attenuated for virulence in a murine pulmonary model of tularemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background A number of studies have revealed that Francisella tularensis (FT) suppresses innate immune responses such as chemokine/cytokine production and neutrophil recruitment in the lungs following pulmonary infection via an unidentified mechanism ...

CRISPR/Cas Genome Editing and Its Applications in Cereal Crop Improvement

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT CRISPR/Cas‐based genome editing has emerged as a transformative tool for precise genetic improvement of cereal crops. Recent advances in CRISPR technologies, including Cas9, Cas12, Cas13, base editing, and prime editing, have enabled targeted modification of genes and regulatory elements controlling yield, stress tolerance, and grain ...

Immunobiological Properties of Francisella tularensis 15/10 Strain with Deleted recA Gene

open access: yesПроблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2011
Deletion of recA gene in Francisella tularensis 15/10 genome leads to the increase in its sensitivity to ultraviolet irradiation, reduction of the homologous recombination capacity, and a slight decline of virulence for mice.

Francisella tularensis Bacteremia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2003
ABSTRACT Bacteremia caused by Francisella tularensis is rare and has been reported mainly in the United States and infrequently in Europe. We report herein the first case of bacteremic F. tularensis pneumonia in an immunocompetent individual in southern Europe.

Galectin‐9high Neutrophils Exacerbate Radiation‐Induced Frailty

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 4, April 2026.
EccDNA shedding after skin radiation injury activates the JAK1/2‐STAT1 pathway in splenic GMP cells to induce the production of GAL‐9high neutrophils. This unique population of hyperactive GAL‐9high neutrophils is identified with characteristics of elevated NETs and IFN‐γ, etc.

First case of Francisella bacteraemia in Western Australia

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, 2015
Francisella species are Gram-negative, nonmotile, pleomorphic coccobacilli, facultative intracellular fastidious bacteria. We report the isolation of a Francisella-like species from a blood culture collected from a 44-year-old bacteraemic patient in ...

Outer membrane tube formation by Francisella novicida involves extensive envelope modifications and is linked with type VI secretion and alterations to the host phagosomal membrane

open access: yesmBio
Francisella tularensis is a gram-negative, intracellular pathogen that causes the zoonotic disease tularemia. Due to its ease of dissemination and high lethality, F.

Monocyte / macrophage inflammatory response pathways to combat Francisella infection: possible therapeutic targets?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014
Francisella tularensis can bypass and suppress host immune responses, even to the point of manipulating immune cell phenotypes and intercellular inflammatory networks. Strengthening these responses such that immune cells more readily identify and destroy
