  1. 11. A microarray analysis of the host response to infection with Francisella tularensis

    Författare :Henrik Andersson; Anders Sjöstedt; David Stenger; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Francisella tularensis; tularemia; host response; gene expression; microarray; Clinical bacteriology; Klinisk bakteriologi;

    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis is a gram-negative bacterium that is the cause of the serious and sometimes fatal disease, tularemia, in a wide range of animal species and in humans. The response of cells of the mouse macrophage cell line J774 to infection with Francisella tularensis LVS was analyzed by means of a DNA microarray. LÄS MER

  2. 12. The role of the Type IV pili system in the virulence of Francisella tularensis

    Författare :Emelie Salomonsson; Åke Forsberg; Jean-Pierre Gorvel; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Francisella tularensis; tularemia; bacterial pathogenesis; Type IV pili; Type II secretion; Neisseria gonorrhoeae; PilA; RD18; RD19; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis is a Gram-negative intracellular pathogen causing the zoonotic disease tularemia. F. tularensis can be found almost all over the world and has been recovered from several animal species, even though the natural reservoir of the bacterium and parts of its life cycle are still unknown.

  3. 13. The aquatic microbial food web and occurence of predation-resistant and potentially pathogenic bacteria, such as Francisella tularensis

    Författare :Johanna Thelaus; Agneta Andersson; Mats Forsman; Farooq Azam; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bacteria; protozoa; ecology; predation; nutrient-availability; microbial food web; model; predation-resistance; Francisella; reservoir; biofilm formation; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : All natural aquatic systems harbour a vast variety of microorganisms. In the aquatic microbial food web, the larger microorganisms (i.e. protozoa) feed on the smaller microorganisms (i. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Francisella tularensis infection induces macrophage cell death

    Författare :Xin-He Lai; Erik Kihlström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :klinisk bakteriologi; Clinical Bacteriology;

    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia, is a potent human and animal pathogen. Its principal survival mechanism is rapid intracellular multiplication. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Host-pathogen interactions between Francisella tularensis and Drosophila melanogaster

    Författare :Malin Vonkavaara; Svenja Stöven; Ingrid Faye; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; arthropod vector; JNK; lipopolysaccharide; antimicrobial peptides; Clinical Bacteriology; klinisk bakteriologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis is a highly virulent Gram-negative bacterium causing the zoonotic disease tularemia. Arthropod-borne transmission plays an important role in transferring the disease to humans. F. LÄS MER
