Disease relevance of Tularemia

 

High impact information on Tularemia

  • The present study explores the interactions between lymphocytes and monocytes that are required for expression of procoagulant activity (PCA) by monocytes in response to purified protein derivative of the tubercle bacillus (PPD) or tularemia antigen [6].
  • These findings suggest that rapid presumptive aminoglycoside therapy (gentamicin sulfate or streptomycin sulfate) should be considered soon after tularemia is suspected, especially for patients with serious underlying medical disorders [7].
  • Tularemia and once-daily gentamicin [8].
  • These results demonstrate that exogenous IL-12 delivered intranasally can prevent respiratory tularemia through a mechanism that is at least partially dependent upon the expression of IFN-gamma and CD8 T cells [9].
  • The highest levels of interleukin-2 and gamma interferon were recorded during the second and third weeks, respectively, after tularemia onset [10].
