Regulation of apoptosis and anti-apoptosis signalling by Francisella tularensis

, 2010
Francisella tularensis induces apoptosis within macrophages but the temporal and spatial modulation through activation of caspase-1, caspase-3, and the anti-apoptosis nuclear transcription factor B (NF-kappaB) is not known. Whether escape of the bacteria

Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis Group A.I, United States

, 2014
We used whole-genome analysis and subsequent characterization of geographically diverse strains using new genetic signatures to identify distinct subgroups within Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis group A.I: A.I.3, A.I.8, and A.I.12.

The Presence of Francisella tularensis in Danish Ixodes ricinus and Raccoon dogs [PDF]

, 2023
Due to an increase in the Danish tick population, the interest in tick-borne pathogens has increased. The tick-borne pathogen Francisella tularensis is not proven to be present in Danish ticks. In this study, DNA from ticks and blood samples from raccoon

Development of a Real-Time PCR Assay for the Detection of Francisella spp. and the Identification of F. tularensis subsp. mediasiatica

Microorganisms
Tularemia is an acute infectious disease classified as a natural focal infection, requiring continuous monitoring of both human and animal morbidity, as well as tracking of pathogen circulation in natural reservoirs and vectors.

Host-pathogen o-methyltransferase similarity and its specific presence in highly virulent strains of Francisella tularensis suggests molecular mimicry.

PLoS ONE, 2011
Whole genome comparative studies of many bacterial pathogens have shown an overall high similarity of gene content (>95%) between phylogenetically distinct subspecies.

Francisella tularensis: an arthropod-borne pathogen

, 2009
Arthropod transmission of tularemia occurs throughout the northern hemisphere. Few pathogens show the adaptability of Francisella tularensis to such a wide array of arthropod vectors. Nonetheless, arthropod transmission of F. tularensis was last actively

Francisella tularensisin the United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
The causative agent of tularemia, Francisella tularensis, is a formidable biologic agent that occurs naturally throughout North America. We examined genetic and spatial diversity patterns among 161 US F. tularensis isolates by using a 24-marker multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) system.

The capBCA Locus Is Required For Intracellular Growth Of Francisella tularensis LVS

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
Francisella tularensis is the causative agent of tularemia and a category A bioterrorism agent. The molecular basis for the extreme virulence of Francisella tularensis remains unclear.

Temporal Manipulation of Mitochondrial Function by Virulent Francisella tularensis To Limit Inflammation and Control Cell Death

, 2018
Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis is a highly pathogenic intracellular bacterium that suppresses host inflammation by impairing the metabolic shift from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis.
