Disseminated alimentary mycobacteriosis in the horse: a retrospective study of nine cases

This paper summarises the clinical findings of 9 cases of disseminated alimentary mycobacteriosis in horses presented at a Finnish referral equine hospital 2009–2014. Four of 9 horses were Standardbreds and 8/9 horses were male. The median age was 2 years, ranging from 6 months to 15 years. The duration of clinical signs before admission ranged from 2 weeks to 6 months. All horses demonstrated deterioration of the clinical signs after a protracted period of the disease and were finally subjected to euthanasia after poor response to multiple medical therapies. The most common complaints on admission were weight loss and diarrhoea (9/9), pyrexia (7/9), ventral oedema (7/9), lethargy (7/9) and inappetance (6/9). The most common clinicopathological abnormalities were hypoalbuminaemia and hyperfibrinogenaemia, which were present in all horses. Rectal biopsy specimens were examined from 5/9 horses and specimens were stained with Ziehl‐Nielsen (ZN). At rectal biopsy, mild multifocal neutrophilic or mild granulomatous proctitis was recognised in all 5 horses, but the ZN stain for mycobacteria was positive in only one biopsy. A liver biopsy was taken from one horse in which hepatomegaly was observed clinically and revealed marked granulomatous hepatitis with the presence of mycobacteria. The rectal biopsy from this horse was ZN negative. At post mortem examination, chronic, multifocal to coalescing granulomatous typhlocolitis and lymphadenitis were found in all horses with the small intestine less frequently involved. At histopathological examination of post mortem samples, a ZN stain was performed and intracellular acid‐fast bacilli were identified in macrophages and multinucleated giant cells in the large intestine, liver and lymph nodes in 9/9 horses and in the small intestine in 5/9 horses. Mycobacterium avium ssp. hominissuis was isolated in 5/9 horses from post mortem samples.     

应用PPA—ELISA检测鸡血清中禽分枝杆菌抗体的研究

用禽型提纯结核菌素(PPD)作包被抗原,建立了PPA—ELISA检测鸡结核病血清抗体的程序。筛选最佳包被抗原浓度为25μg/ml,待检血清稀释度为1:40倍,兔抗鸡IgG血清稀释度为1:800倍。检测了30份结核病鸡血清和30份健康鸡血清。两者OD值分别为x0.345和x0.086,P/N值为4.0(P<0.01)。     

Paratuberculosis (Johne's Disease) in Cattle and Other Susceptible Species

Paratuberculosis (Johne's disease) is a widespread and costly disease. This consensus statement will summarize recommendations regarding diagnosis, control, and treatment of Johne's disease in cattle and other species. Each section of recommendations is followed by a statement that subjectively characterizes the strength of the supporting evidence. The role played by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) in the pathogenesis has been a matter of controversy for many years. This statement concludes with an assessment of the evidence in favor of MAP as a potential zoonotic pathogen.     

牛分支杆菌ESAT-6基因的克隆与序列分析

从患结核病鹿的肺组织中粗分离牛分支杆菌制备DNA模板,用PCR对牛分支杆菌ESAT-6基因进行了扩增,将扩增的产物连接于测序载体pGEM-TE上克隆,经测序确定无误;并使用分子生物学软件对ESAT-6基因进行了分析。结果显示:ESAT-6基因编码的蛋白有较好的抗原性;ESAT-6基因在结核分支杆菌和牛分支杆菌各基因型中具有高度保守性。本研究为下—步研制重组标记疫苗奠定了基础。     

Systemic Mycobacteriosis in an Aborted Thoroughbred Fetus in Japan

A male Thoroughbred fetus was aborted on day 251 of pregnancy. Gross and histological examinations detected systemic granulomatous lesions in many superficial and visceral lymph nodes and organs including the liver, tonsils, lungs, thymus, spleen, right thyroid gland and gastrointestinal tract, and suppurative placentitis, pyogranulomatous amnionitis and intralesional acid-fast bacilli were also detected. An examination of the DNA base sequence of the β subunit of RNA polymerase demonstrated that Mycobacterium avium strain 104 had infected several organs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of equine fetal mycobacterial infection in Japan.
