Description
| - The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is composed of several species of mycobacteria which are M. tuberculosis, the main cause of human tuberculosis, M. canettii, M. africanum, M. microti, M. pinnipedii, M. caprae and M. bovis. Cattle are the principal host of M. bovis, but a large number of other ruminants and other mammals, particularly wildlife are infected. The importance of zoonotic tuberculosis should be seen within the global spread of human tuberculosis but also as a disease primarily affecting livestock and wildlife. More than 95% of tuberculosis cases have been detected in developing and transition countries, of which one third in Africa and we still don’t know the proportion of cases caused by M. bovis. Today, bovine tuberculosis re-emerges and threatens the livestock industry in industrialized countries with wildlife reservoirs like the wild tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in the USA or the badger (Meles meles) in the UK. Most developing countries lack the means and capacity for effective control of bovine tuberculosis. A better understanding of its epidemiology is required to identify novel, locally adapted options for control in a given context. Bovine tuberculosis in Africa is emphasized here because of the special importance of multiple transmission interfaces between wildlife, livestock and humans. In addition to obligatory pathogenic mycobacteria (esp. M. tuberculosis, M. bovis and M. caprae), potentially pathogenic mycobacteria previously designated as “mycobacteria other than tubercle bacilli” are increasingly important causes of mycobacterioses in humans and animals. Most of them are opportunistic in humans and occur mostly in immunocompromised patients. The mycobacteria that cause human disease are both the M. avium complex members and other mycobacterial species M. avium complex members have been detected in more than 95% of cases.
