Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in Colombia (1924-2016): A review

Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2018
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is an acid-fast, gram-positive bacillus. MAP is the causal agent of paratuberculosis (PTB) or Johne’s disease, an infectious disease affecting domestic ruminants and some wild species. Its importance as a potentially zoonotic agent due to its relation to Crohn’s disease (CD) in humans is still under ...

Mycobacteriophage Mcgavigan Uses Noncanonical Bxb1‐Like Repressor for Heterotypic Superinfection Immunity

Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Mycobacteriophage Mcgavigan could be a promising candidate for use as a preventative agent against infections with Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis. Bioinformatic analysis of the Mcgavigan genome revealed the presence of an operon containing a “Bxb1‐like” repressor.

Epigenetic Modifications Influence Reproductive Traits in Small Ruminants

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The epigenome undergoes dynamic changes shaped by the intricate interplay of genetic and environmental factors, which are crucial for individual growth and development. Recent studies suggest that factors such as nutrition, thermal stress (TS), infections, and assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) can influence epigenetic changes in small ruminants

Specificity Evaluation of a Polyprotein‐Based ELISA Designed for the Detection of Paratuberculosis in Multiple Species

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Paratuberculosis (PTB) is a disease affecting ruminant animals. The etiological agent, Mycobacterium avium subspecies PTB (Map), is a short, Gram‐positive, acid‐fast bacillus. Due to the nature of PTB, diagnosis often occurs at advanced stages of the disease, following the onset of clinical symptoms and prior dissemination of the agent. The specificity

Seroprevalence study of paratuberculosis: Johne's disease, a neglected infection in dairy herds in Apulia (southern Italy)

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Introduction Paratuberculosis (PTB) is a disease caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). In Italy, voluntary PTB control plans have been implemented; nonetheless, so far, data on the prevalence of PTB in dairy herds are fragmented and incomplete, especially in the south of the country.

An eco-friendly decontaminant to kill Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2020
Mycobacteria are difficult to kill due to the complexity of their cell wall. Further, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) has one of the more elaborate cell wall compositions of all the mycobacteria. As a working pathogen within a research laboratory setting or as an environmental contaminant shed in the manure from infected animals, MAP ...

Pixelated pathologies: Camera trapping as a tool for monitoring wildlife health

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2894-2913, November 2025.
Given the increasing emergence of diseases, some with conservation and public health implications, improving and expanding wildlife health surveillance strategies is imperative. Camera trapping is particularly relevant for detecting new outbreaks, monitoring high‐risk zones and evaluating risk mitigation measures. Abstract Camera trapping has become an

Description of a Novel Adhesin ofMycobacterium aviumSubsp.paratuberculosis [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2014
The binding and ingestion ofMycobacterium aviumsubsp.paratuberculosis(MAP) by host cells are fibronectin (FN) dependent. In several species of mycobacteria, a specific family of proteins allows the attachment and internalization of these bacteria by epithelial cells through interaction with FN.
