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

Rapid differentiation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis by amplification of insertion element IS901 [PDF]
Veterinární Medicína, 2002 The aim of this study was to examine the specificity of primers designed to detect the insertion element IS901 commonly used in differentiation of Mycobacterium avium complex strains. This study shows that one of these primers non-specifically anneals to

Use of ELISA to predict high Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis shedding in faeces of infected animals [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary ResearchParatuberculosis is a chronic wasting disease caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). Control in herds relies on detecting infected animals, which are managed based on the level of MAP shedding.

Molecular characterisation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in Australia [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2021 Abstract Background Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) causes Johne’s disease (JD), a chronic enteritis widespread in ruminants, resulting in substantial economic losses, especially to the dairy industry.

Interaction of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis with bovine sperm
Theriogenology, 2021 Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is responsible for Paratuberculosis mainly affecting domestic ruminants. The interaction between MAP and sperm and/or germ cells has not yet been established, however the adherence between MAP and the host cell surface is associated to the 85 complex proteins that bind to the host cell's fibronectin ...
