Paratuberculosis in Deer [PDF]
, 1992 Paratuberculosis (Johne disease) a chronic infectious disease of ruminants caused by Mycobacterium paratuberculosis, is potentially an important problem in deer farming. Primarily a disease of cattle, sheep, and goats, paratuberculosis is characterized by progressive wasting and diarrhea and granulomatous inflammation of the intestines and mesenteric ...

Paratuberculosis: A Potential Zoonosis?
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996Available literature on the controversial role of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis as an etiologic agent in human Crohn's disease is reviewed. Despite almost 15 years of investigation, the question of causal or consequential association between Johne's disease and Crohn's disease continues to linger.

Treatment and Chemoprophylaxis for Paratuberculosis
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2011There is no definitive cure for Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infections, but several therapeutic agents may be used to alleviate clinical signs of Johne’s disease (JD) in ruminants of significant value. Treatment has to be maintained for the life of the animal and treated animals usually continue to shed MAP.

Paratuberculosis (Johne’s disease) is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (Map). Achieving herd-level control of mycobacterial infection is notoriously difficult, despite widespread adoption of test-and-cull-based ...

Mycobacterium paratuberculosisMonoassociated Nude Mice as a Paratuberculosis Model
Veterinary Pathology, 1991In this study, a paratuberculosis (Johne's disease) model was developed by intragastrically dosing gnotobiotic athymic nude mice with Mycobacterium paratuberculosis. The mice infrequently shed bacilli from their intestinal tracts during the first 4 months after inoculation. Following this time, increasing numbers of M.

Mycobacterium paratuberculosis
2002: Mycobacterium avium spp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent for Johne’s disease, an incurable, chronic, infectious enteritis of ruminants, which results in diarrhoea, weight loss and, ultimately, death. Because of the similar pathology of Johne’s and Crohn’s disease in humans, MAP has also been proposed as the aetiological agent of Crohns’

Economic Impact of Paratuberculosis
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996The economic impact of paratuberculosis has been estimated in dairy cattle for several areas of the United States and in some other dairy-intensive areas of the world. Losses are primarily due to decreased milk production and unrealized income related to premature culling.

Immunology: Resistance to Paratuberculosis
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996Disease caused by Mycobacterium paratuberculosis involves a complex interaction of lymphoid and phagocytic cells of the peripheral and mucosal immune responses. For resistance to develop, animals must generate an effective cellular immune response to primary infections as well as multifocal exogenous and endogenous reinfections.

Mycobacterium paratuberculosis heat shock protein 70 as a tool in control of paratuberculosis
Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2002Paratuberculosis in cattle is a chronic intestinal disease in which a distinctive cellular reactivity of a Th1-type preceeds the phase in which antibody titers are easily detectable and the animal becomes clinically ill. During infection with Mycobacterium avium ssp.

Summary Intestinal contents of sheep suffering from Johne's disease with or without diarrhoea were tested for the presence of antibodies to and soluble antigens of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis. Six of eight sheep with diarrhoea had intestinal antibodies and soluble antigens were demonstrated in one of the animals. None of the five sheep with Johne'
