Abstract:
Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease that affects animals and humans and is caused by Mycobacterium bovis. The human disease caused by Mycobacterium bovis is called zoonotic disease and is clinically and pathologically indistinguishable from the disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Therefore, the differentiation of mycobacterial species responsible for pulmonary tuberculosis is extremely important, since Mycobacterium bovis is resistant to pyrazinamide, a drug commonly used to treat infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Abstract:
The antioxidant defense is critical for the survival of intracellular pathogens such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) species, including Mycobacterium bovis, which are often exposed to an oxidative environment caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hosts. However, the signaling pathway in mycobacteria for sensing and responding to oxidative stress remains largely unclear. In this study, we characterize a TetR-type transcription regulator BCG_3893c, designated AotM, as a novel redox sensor in Mycobacterium bovis that increases mycobacterial tolerance to oxidative stress.

Mycobacterium is one of the most dangerous pathogens of both animals and humans. Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is a disease caused by mycobacteria belonging to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), which spreads mainly among domestic cattle but also to mammals other than cattle. The transmission of MTBC between different species requires research and epidemiological investigations to control its spread. When multiple species are a reservoir of infection, it poses a significant public health and veterinary concern. In this study, the diagnosis of alpaca, cattle, horses, dogs, a sheep and a

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Alveolar macrophages constitute a primary defense against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but they are unable to control M. tuberculosis without acquired T-cell immunity. This study determined the antigen-presenting cell function of murine alveolar macrophages and the ability of the model mycobacterium, Mycobacterium bovis BCG, to modulate it. The majority (80 to 85%) of alveolar macrophages expressed both CD80 (B7.1) and CD11c, and 20 to 30% coexpressed major histocompatibility complex II (MHC-II). Gamma interferon (IFN-γ) enhanced MHC-II but not B7.1 expression. Naive or IFN-γ-treated a

Abstract:
SUMMARY Lipid analysis was performed on 204 isolates of mycobacteria, using miniaturized thin-layer chromatography (mtlc). A previously described lipid component was found in 92 (96.8%) of 95 isolates of Mycobacterium bovis and in 2 (1.8%) of 109 isolates of other mycobacteria. Using mtlc, an isolate could be identified as M bovis 3 to 4 weeks earlier than by use of conventional biochemical techniques. Examination of isolates for colonial and cellular morphologic characteristics was a useful adjunct in the identification of M bovis by use of mtlc.

ABSTRACT Live mycobacteria have been reported to signal through both Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4 in vitro. Here, we investigated the role of TLR2 in the long-term control of the infection by the attenuated Mycobacterium, Mycobacterium bovis BCG, in vivo. We sought to determine whether the reported initial defect of bacterial control (K. A. Heldwein et al., J. Leukoc. Biol. 74:277-286, 2003) resolved in the chronic phase of BCG infection. Here we show that TLR2-deficient mice survived a 6-month infection period with M. bovis BCG and were able to control bacterial growth. Granuloma form

One of the obstacles to eradicating paratuberculosis or Johne’s Disease (JD) seems to be the persistence of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) in the environment due to its ability to survive alone or vectorized. It has been shown that Map is widely distributed in soils and water. Previously, we isolated amoebae associated with Map strains in the environment of bovines from an infected herd. This work aims to verify our working hypothesis, which suggests that amoebae may play a role in the transmission of JD. In this study, we sampled water in the vicinity of herds infected with

None of the samples processed for mycobacterial culture were positive for M. bovis. Agent, host, and landscape-level factors decrease the probability of detecting M. bovis in t

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are an unavoidable host environmental cue for intracellular pathogens such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis; however, the signaling pathway in mycobacteria for sensing and responding to environmental stress remains largely unclear. Here, we characterize a novel CmtR-Zur-ESX3-Zn2+ regulatory pathway in M. bovis that aids mycobacterial survival under oxidative stress. We demonstrate that CmtR functions as a novel redox sensor and that its expression can be significantly induced under H2O2 stress. CmtR can physically interact with the negative re

Cord factor (trehalose 6,6′-dimycolate, TDM) is an unique glycolipid with a trehalose and two molecules of mycolic acids in the mycobacterial cell envelope. Since TDM consists of two molecules of very long branched-chain 3-hydroxy fatty acids, the molecular mass ranges widely and in a complex manner. To characterize the molecular structure of TDM precisely and simply, an attempt was made to determine the mycolic acid subclasses of TDM and the molecular species composition of intact TDM by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry for the first tim

This study investigates the antitumor effects of M. bovis BCG and M. brumae on BC cell migration, invasion, and anchorage-independent growth.
