Johne's disease (paratuberculosis) in ruminants, caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, is a growing concern due to high prevalence and potential links to human Crohn's disease. New diagnostic tools are needed for effective control and eradication programs.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Microbiology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Johne's disease (paratuberculosis) has been prevalent in livestock for over a century.
  • Control efforts have been minimal, leading to neglect despite its impact.
  • Recent surveys reveal alarming prevalence in cattle and sheep in Europe.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current knowledge on Johne's disease (paratuberculosis) in ruminants.
  • To discuss the potential role of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in human Crohn's disease.
  • To highlight the need for improved diagnostic tools and control strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of current opinions and research on paratuberculosis.
  • Analysis of recent epidemiological data from Europe.

  • Discussion of the debated link between M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis and Crohn's disease.

    • Main Results:

    • Paratuberculosis is a significant and increasingly recognized problem in livestock.
    • There is a renewed interest due to high prevalence and potential zoonotic implications.
    • The need for reliable, large-scale diagnostic tools is critical for disease management.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective control and eradication programs for paratuberculosis require reliable diagnostic tools.
    • Further research is needed to clarify the role of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis in human health.
    • Addressing paratuberculosis is crucial for animal health and potentially public health.
