Mycobacterium bovis Infection, Lyon, France

چکیده
In a 5-year retrospective study, we used spoligotyping and mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units to type 13 strains of Mycobacterium bovis isolated from human sources. Despite the relatively high incidence of human tuberculosis caused by M. bovis (2%), these tools showed no clonal evolution and no relationships between the isolates.

متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Three Mycobacterium bovis Strains Identified in Cattle and Wildlife in France
Mycobacterium bovis is the etiologic agent of bovine tuberculosis, a chronic infectious disease affecting livestock, wild animals, and sometimes humans. We report here three draft genome sequences of Mycobacterium bovis strains of spoligotypes SB0821 and SB0134, isolated from wildlife but circulating in wildlife-livestock multihost systems, and SB0121, circulating exclusively in cattle.
متن کاملSpoligotype diversity of Mycobacterium bovis strains isolated in France from 1979 to 2000.
The molecular fingerprints of 1,349 isolates of Mycobacterium bovis received between 1979 and August 2000 at Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments (Afssa) have been obtained by spoligotyping. The majority of the isolates (1,266) were obtained from cattle living in France. An apparently high level of heterogeneity was observed between isolates. One hundred sixty-one spoligotypes we...
متن کاملA booster vaccination with Mycobacterium bovis BCG does not increase the protective effect of the vaccine against experimental Mycobacterium ulcerans infection in mice.
Buruli ulcer, caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans, is a necrotizing skin disease emerging particularly in West Africa. M. bovis BCG vaccine offers only short-term protection against experimental footpad infection of C57BL/6 mice with M. ulcerans, and the duration of this protection cannot be prolonged by a booster vaccination.
متن کاملCirculating Mycobacterium bovis peptides and host response proteins as biomarkers for unambiguous detection of subclinical infection.
Bovine tuberculosis remains one of the most damaging diseases to agriculture, and there is also a concern for human spillover. A critical need exists for rapid, thorough, and inexpensive diagnostic methods capable of detecting and differentiating Mycobacterium bovis infection from other pathogenic and environmental mycobacteria at multiple surveillance levels. In a previous study, Seth et al. (...
