Global gene expression profiling of monocyte-derived macrophages from red deer (Cervus elaphus) genotypically resistant or susceptible to Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis infection.

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) can cause a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, Johne's disease (JD), in ruminant animals. This study has explored the molecular basis of resistance and susceptibility to this disease in red deer breeds previously confirmed to express polarise...
