Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

open access: yesDrug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Phenotypical and Genomic Characterization of the Mollusk Pathogen Francisella halioticida

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
Phenotypic and genetic characterization of French isolates of Francisella halioticida and comparison with Canadian and Japanese strains. The study revealed similarities between FR22s and previous isolates but distinct differences with FR21. A major finding is the absence of the Francisella pathogenicity island in the less virulent isolate, FR22b ...

Infection of Mammalian Hepatocytes by Francisella tularensis LVS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of Tularemia, is a facultative intracellular parasite. The goal of this project is to examine how F. tularensis infects and replicates within mammalian cells, and the impact of such an infection upon the ...

Characterization of Pilin A and Thioredoxin A Mutant Strains of Acinetobacter baumannii, From a Transposon Insertion Library, for Pili Production and Virulence‐Associated Properties

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
Acinetobacter baumannii transposon insertion mutant strains ΔpilA and ΔtrxA display marked reductions of surface pili. The PilA (a major pilin protein) and TrxA (thioredoxin A) deficient bacteria also show attenuation in pathogenesis including the reduction of intestinal bacterial attachment, increased phagocytic uptake and decreased mortality from ...

Zoonotic Disease Transmission May Be Linked to Host Co‐Occurrence Network Topology

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1554, Issue 1, Page 110-120, December 2025.
A global analysis of zoonotic host co‐occurrence networks identified 22 networks from five continents (A) and 87 hosts from 16 orders of mostly birds but also mammals (B) as having a high potential for disease transmission. ABSTRACT Most human pathogens are zoonotic, transmitted from vertebrate hosts to humans.
