Mycobacterium avium complex infection [PDF]
We report the case of a 30-year-old woman with a three-year history of papules, nodules, and multiple ulcers of the left lower extremity. A skin biopsy specimen showed dermal fibrosis and patchy granulomatous inflammation in the upper-to-mid dermis that was associated with a perivascular, lymphohistiocytic infiltrate along with granulomas and necrosis ...

The Mycobacterium avium complex [PDF]
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) disease emerged early in the epidemic of AIDS as one of the common opportunistic infections afflicting human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients. However, only over the past few years has a consensus developed about its significance to the morbidity and mortality of AIDS. M.

The Effect of Mycobacterium avium Complex Infections on Routine Mycobacterium bovis Diagnostic Tests [PDF]
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is diagnosed in naturally infected populations exposed to a wide variety of other pathogens. This study describes the cell-mediated immune responses of cattle exposed to Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (Map) and ...

Genetic characterization of Mycobacterium avium isolates recovered from humans and animals in Australia [PDF]
Genetic relationships amongst 115 mainly Australian isolates of Mycobacterium avium were assessed using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MEE). The isolates were divided into 58 electrophoretic types (ETs), with a mean genetic diversity of 0·29 ...

A Novel Multi-Antigen Virally Vectored Vaccine against Mycobacterium avium Subspecies paratuberculosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis causes systemic infection and chronic intestinal inflammation in many species including primates. Humans are exposed through milk and from sources of environmental contamination.

A rhodanine agent active against non-replicating intracellular Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Antibiotic therapy targeting chronic mycobacterial disease is often ineffective due to problems with the emergence of drug resistance and non-replicating persistent intracellular antibiotic resistant phenotypes.

Genomic variations associated with attenuation in Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis vaccine strains [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) whole cell vaccines have been widely used tools in the control of Johne's disease in animals despite being unable to provide complete protection. Current vaccine strains derive from stocks

Exploring the Zoonotic Potential of Mycobacterium avium Subspecies paratuberculosis through Comparative Genomics. [PDF]
A comparative genomics approach was utilised to compare the genomes of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) isolated from early onset paediatric Crohn's disease (CD) patients as well as Johne's diseased animals.
