<i>Francisella tularensis</i>regulates autophagy-related host cell signaling pathways
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
The Gram-negative intracellular pathogen Francisella tularensis is known for its ability to dampen host immune responses. We recently performed a microarray analysis comparing human monocyte responses to the highly virulent F. tularensis tularensis Schu S4 strain (F.t.) versus the less virulent F. tularensis novicida (F.n.).(1) Many groups of genes were affected, including those involved with autophagy and with...
