Extraneurological Presentations of Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus: A Rare Case of TBEV‐Associated Myocarditis With Fever and Bicytopenia and a Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose Tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE), a zoonotic disease caused by the tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), usually manifests with a biphasic course with neurological involvement during its second phase. Extraneurological manifestations are rare but clinically relevant.

Francisella-like endosymbionts, potentially harmful to human health, are transported by the universally distributed species of the ciliate Euplotes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Genome analyses of wild-type strains of two ecologically separated Euplotes species, E. raikovi living in temperate sea waters and E. petzi living in the polar seas, revealed that both host bacteria in their cytoplasm. These bacteria have been identified

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 .

Lethal Case of Bourbon Virus Leading to Shock and ECMO Utilization

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
We present a lethal case of Bourbon virus infection in a 63‐year‐old Caucasian, diabetic male who was previously in good health. The patient had spent time in the wooded areas of Bourbon County, Kansas, and removed three ticks from his body 5 days prior to presentation.

Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High‐Throughput Microfluidic Real‐Time PCR

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

Exploitation of Host Cell Biology and Evasion of Immunity by Francisella Tularensis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Francisella tularensis is an intracellular bacterium that infects humans and many small mammals. During infection, F. tularensis replicates predominantly in macrophages but also proliferate in other cell types. Entry into host cells is mediate by various
