Disease models and infectious phenotypes of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis

Creator:: Everman, Jamie L.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects ruminant populations worldwide. The characteristic stages of the disease make diagnosis difficult, resulting in silent transmission among animals in a herd for years before proper detection of the infection. The extensive...

Characterization of the interaction between Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis and bovine epithelial cells in culture and identification of invasion-associated genes by transposon mutagenesis

Creator:: Patel, Dilip
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is a cause of Johne's disease (JD) in cattle and other ruminants. MAP infection in the bovine host is not well characterized. It is assumed that crossing the bovine intestinal mucosa is important for MAP to establish infection. MAP's ability to infect bovine epithelial cells...

Establishment of an in vitro System for Studying Mycobacterium avium Protein Secretion

Creator:: Chinison, Jessica J.
Abstract:: Cases of pulmonary diseases caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) have increased over the years and have become a major health concern in Europe, Asia, and the United States. MAC, comprised of M. avium species and M. intracellulare, are found everywhere in the environment: in water sources and the soil....

Molecular and cellular characterization of the intracellular phenotype of Mycobacterium avium

Creator:: Early, Julie V.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium cause disseminated disease in immunocompromised people such as AIDS patients. Subsequent to crossing the intestinal epithelium, M. avium thrive within vacuoles in macrophages. The bacteria exhibit a different, more invasive, phenotype after being in macrophages compared to M. avium from laboratory conditions. We hypothesized that this intracellular phenotype...

Low Level Quantification of 1,4-Dioxane and Investigation of 1,4-Dioxane Co-Metabolism by Mycobacterium sp. 1A.

Creator:: McKeage, Kevin J.
Abstract:: 1,4-Dioxane (dioxane) is a probable human carcinogen and is often found comingled with chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon (CAH) contamination since dioxane is used as a stabilizer in CAH solutions. Dioxane is miscible in water, has a low K[subscript ow], low H[subscript cc], and is highly recalcitrant in the environment. The presence...

Macrophage infection with wild-type Mycobacterium avium or isogenic attenuated PPE mutant revealed differences in gene expression and mycobacterial vacuole proteins

Creator:: Jha, Samradhni
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium is a ubiquitous environmental organism found in water and soil. It can cause disease in patients with pre-existing pulmonary conditions, immunocompromised patients with the most prevalent being AIDS patients, as well as apparently healthy people. Studies have indicated that, upon macrophage uptake, Al. avium prevents phagosome-lysosome fusion, thus...

Search for a repressor regulator of invasion in Mycobacterium avium

Creator:: Tripathi, Sanjai T.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium is an intracellular pathogen that is associated with disseminated infection, especially in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). It appears that patients with AIDS acquire M. avium mostly through the intestinal tract, and that bacteria enter the intestinal wall at the terminal ileum. Previous studies have found that...

Characterization of microaggregate formation by Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis

Creator:: Babrak, Lmar
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp hominissuis (MAH) is an opportunistic environmental pathogen that causes respiratory and gastrointestinal illness in immunocompromised persons such as those with chronic respiratory diseases or AIDs, respectively. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung infections, including in cystic...

Mycobacterium avium genes upregulated upon infection of Acanthamoeba castellanii demonstrate a common response to the intracellular environment

Creator:: Tennant, Rachel C.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium is a ubiquitous environmental organism found in both water and soil. It can cause disease in patients with previous pulmonary conditions, as well as immunosupressed patients, with the most prevalent being AIDS patients. Studies have indicated that passage through amoeba, a common environmental protozoa, increases virulence of M....

Further Understanding Mycobacterial Biofilms and Their Interaction with the Host

Creator:: Rose, Sasha J.
Abstract:: Respiratory infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), especially Mycobacterium avium, can lead to progressive, recurrent disease that is refractory to therapy. Bacterial biofilms are intrinsically resistant to a variety of stressors and pressures, including host killing mechanisms and antibiotic therapy. Though it is becoming increasingly evident that NTM biofilms are...
