Numerical Taxonomy of Mycobactin-Dependent Mycobacteria, Emended Description of Mycobacterium avium, and Description of Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium subsp. nov., Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis subsp. nov., and Mycobacterium avium subsp. silvaticum subsp. nov. [PDF]
We performed a numerical taxonomy analysis of 38 Mycobacterium paratuberculosis and related mycobacterial strains, including wood pigeon mycobacteria; this analysis was based on 22 tests, which were selected for their potential discriminative value from a total of 51 tests studied and produced four well-defined clusters.

Human macrophage transcriptomic responses to Mycobacterium avium (Mav), a major cause of nontuberculous lung disease, were compared to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Both infections activated overlapping immune pathways, including cytokine signaling and GPCRs involved in lipid metabolism, while phospholipases were more strongly regulated by Mav and ...

Rapid method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis identification using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry analysis of mycolic acids [PDF]
Mycolic acids (MAs), which play a crucial role in the architecture of mycobacterial cell walls, were analyzed using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. A targeted analysis based on the 10 most abundant and characteristic multiple reaction

What Immunological Defects Predispose to Non-tuberculosis Mycobacterial Infections? [PDF]
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are categorized as one of the large and diverse groups of environmental organisms which are abundant in water and soil. NTM cause a variety of diseases in humans that mainly affect the lung.

Heat Therapy: Targeting Health, Disease, and Disability
The predominance of evidence suggests heat therapy has an impact on all aspects of health and performance, but the drivers of that improvement, the extent to which they are improved, and the specific populations in which improvements manifest are far from completely understood.

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