Mycobacterium avium Complex Infection

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1988
NOTrE FROM DR. MERLE A. SANDE The issues addressed in this AIDS Commentary are complex ones. Are organisms that constitute the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) significant pathogens in the patients infected with HIV? If they are, how should these infections in this population of patients be treated? Dr. Lowell S.

Disseminated nongranulomatous Mycobacterium avium osteomyelitis

Human Pathology, 1980
A 17 month old black girl had multiple, rapidly progressive osteolytic lesions, cervical lymphadenopathy, fever, and weight loss clinically compatible with disseminated malignant disease. Histologically the bone lesions were characteristic of acute nongranulomatous osteomyelitis with a few acid fast organisms.

Immunopathogenesis of Mycobacterium avium infection

Frontiers in Bioscience, 1998
One of the most obvious problems one perceives when working with Mycobacterium avium isolates is the vast array of phenotypes expressed with regard to colonial morphotype, serovar and particularly virulence. Thus whenever experimental data derived from different MAC isolates is compared the variety of this group of mycobacteria must always be ...

Osteomyelitis Caused by Mycobacterium Avium

Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1983
Osteomyelitis due to M. avium is extremely rare and frequently fatal. The successful cure of an 11-year-old patient with multiple mycobacterial lesions in the pelvis and right humerus is reported. Although the mycobacteria were in vitro resistant to most antituberculous drugs a five-drug regimen was given over a total of 2 1/2 years.

Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Corneal Ulcer

Cornea, 1987
A healthy 28-year-old man developed a slowly progressive corneal ulcer 21 months after an episode of corneal trauma. Acid-fast bacilli were identified in corneal scrapings, and the causative organism was identified as Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare.

Mycobacterium avium intracellulare otitis media

Annals of Diagnostic Pathology, 2001
Atypical mycobacterial infections of the middle ear are extremely rare. To our knowledge, only eight cases have been reported in the literature, five of which involve Mycobacterium avium intracellulare. We present a case of culture-proven, M. avium intracellulare otomastoiditis in an 8-year-old boy with common variable immunodeficiency syndrome.

Mycobacterium avium infections in man

The American Journal of Medicine, 1973
Abstract A disseminated infection with Mycobacterium avium, serotype 1, is described in a 63 year old woman with reticulum cell sarcoma. The organism was demonstrated in vivo in lymph nodes, bone marrow, urine and sputum, and at autopsy within an intraocular abscess. Previous reports of human infections with Myco.

Different immune response of pigs to Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium and Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis infection

Veterinary Microbiology, 2012
Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium (MAA) and Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) are the most common mycobacterial species isolated from granulomatous lesions in swine in countries with controlled bovine tuberculosis. This study is focused on the immunological aspect of MAA and MAH infection in pigs.

Lactic Oxidases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis avium

Nature, 1952
WE have previously discovered that the cell-free preparation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis avium (Takeo strain) catalyses the oxidation of lactate. Recently, we have confirmed that this preparation contains two distinct lactic oxidases, and made clear the respective characteristic properties.

Antigenic relationship between Mycobacterium paratuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1988
SUMMARY Four prototype strains of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis contained the type-specific glycopeptidolipid antigen of serovar 8 of the M avium complex. This glycolipid was distinguished by a 4,6-(1′-carboxyethylidene)-3-O-methyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl terminal unit.
