Toll-like receptor (TLR) diversity influences mycobacterial growth in African buffalo.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 May 2017

le Roex Nikki, Jolles Anna, Beechler Brianna, van Helden Paul, Hoal Eileen

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the role of wildlife in the maintenance or spread of emerging infectious diseases is a growing priority across the world. Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is a chronic, infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis). BTB is widespread within game reserves in southern Africa, and within these ecosystems the primary wildlife host of this disease is the African buffalo. We used a modified...
