Estimation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis load in raw bulk tank milk in Emilia-Romagna Region (Italy) by qPCR [PDF]

, 2016
Consumption of milk and dairy products is considered one of the main routes of human exposure to Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). Quantitative data on MAP load in raw cows’ milk are essential starting point for exposure assessment.

The multiple roles of the NlpC_P60 peptidase family in mycobacteria – an underexplored target for antimicrobial drug discovery

FEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 9, Page 1203-1221, May 2025.
The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

Phylogenomic exploration of the relationships between strains of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (Map) is an infectious enteric pathogen that causes Johne's disease in livestock. Determining genetic diversity is prerequisite to understanding the epidemiology and biology of Map. We performed

Assessment of Healthcare Professionals' Knowledge Regarding Nontuberculosis Mycobacterial Infections at Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia, 2024: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 39, Issue 10, May 2025.
A comprehensive and schematic illustration of the study's methods and materials. ABSTRACT Background Nontuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM) are environmental pathogens that can cause pulmonary infections, especially among the immunocompromised population. There is limited research on healthcare professionals' knowledge of NTM infections in Ethiopia.

Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.

Viable Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis in retail artisanal coalho cheese from Northeastern Brazil. [PDF]

, 2014
Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the etiologic agent of paratuberculosis and it potentially plays a role in Crohn?s disease. In humans, the main route of transmission of MAP might be the intake of contaminated milk and dairy products ...

Immunoreactivity of the Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis 19-kDa lipoprotein

BMC Microbiology, 2005
Background The Mycobacterium tuberculosis 19-kDa lipoprotein has been reported to stimulate both T and B cell responses as well as induce a number of Th1 cytokines. In order to evaluate the Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (M.

Principles of control of Johne's Disease in the dairy herd [PDF]

, 2014
Johne's disease, caused by infection with Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is a chronic, debilitating disease of ruminants. In cattle the classic clinical signs are profuse diarrhoea and wasting.
