Mycobacterium avium Subsp. paratuberculosis and Human Endogenous Retrovirus in Italian Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Immunology, Volume 178, Issue 3, Page 417-427, July 2026.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a recognised gastrointestinal disorder. Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is implicated in IBD pathogenesis. Persistent exposure and active infections by MAP may contribute to the unsilencing of human endogenous retroviruses (HERV ...

Bovine tuberculosis history as a risk factor for recurrence in English cattle herds experiencing a breakdown

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 12, Page e533-e542, 13–27 June 2026.
Abstract Background Bovine tuberculosis (TB) threatens cattle farming in England. Supplementing tuberculin skin testing with the interferon‐gamma blood test during TB incident (breakdown) management can enhance diagnostic sensitivity. We aimed to identify herds at greater risk of recurrence depending on their recent TB history to inform targeted ...

Monensin causes dose dependent inhibition of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis in radiometric culture

Gut Pathogens, 2009
Background Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) causes a chronic wasting diarrheal disease in ruminants called Johne's disease, that is evocative of human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Integrative Genomics Identifies Candidate Genes Underlying Trypanotolerance in Hybrid African Cattle

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Integrative genomics combines data from different omics sources to link genotypes and phenotypes with the aim of unravelling biological networks and pathways that undergird complex traits, particularly with respect to disease. In this respect, integrative genomics, leveraging population and functional genomic data, can be employed to ...

Comparison of Machine Learning Tree-Based Algorithms to Predict Future Paratuberculosis ELISA Results Using Repeat Milk Tests

Animals
Machine learning algorithms have been applied to various animal husbandry and veterinary-related problems; however, its use in Johne’s disease diagnosis and control is still in its infancy. The following proof-of-concept study explores the application of

Serial and Parallel Testing Strategies for Johne's Disease: Effects on Milk Production Traits and Milk Income on New Zealand Dairy Cattle

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
The suboptimal accuracy of current diagnostic tests necessitates alternative testing strategies to improve the detection of Johne's disease. We studied parallel and serial testing strategies to quantify the association between milk production and Johne's disease status. For this, two commercial Johne's disease Enzyme‐Linked Immunosorbent Assay, ELISAs,

Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the

Failure to detect M. avium subspecies paratuberculosis in Johne’s disease using a proprietary fluorescent in situ hybridization assay

BMC Research Notes, 2018
Objectives Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) causes Johne’s disease in ruminants. The “gold standard” of MAP detection is by culture, DNA sequencing possibly supplemented by identification of Ziehl–Neelsen positive mycobacteria.

The Relationship Between Immunopathology and Body Condition of Mixed‐Age Ewes

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
Ill thrift in ewes, characterised by less than desirable body condition, is a multifactorial condition often attributed to nutritional deficits, though immunopathological factors may also play a role. This study investigated associations between body condition scores (BCS) and immunopathological states in 120 mixed‐age ewes grazing pasture over 4 ...

Development of a Fully Automated, High‐Throughput Molecular Assay for Detection of Rat Hepatitis E Virus in Routine Diagnostics

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Recently, cases of human infection with rat hepatitis E virus (ratHEV, Rocahepevirus ratti) have been reported worldwide. Due to the significant genetic differences between ratHEV and human HEV genotypes 1–4 (Paslahepevirus balayani), current HEV diagnostic assays are unable to detect ratHEV.
