Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis (MAP) é o agente etilógico da doença de Johne, uma doença inflamatória intestinal que afecta o gado, bem como outras espécies de mamíferos. Existem evidências de que, em humanos, MAP também despoleta a doença de Crohn, embora esta seja ainda uma hipótese controversa. Neste artigo será apresentado um sumário das características da doença de Johne e da doença de Crohn, e discutido o papel de MAP na doença de Crohn, com base em algumas evidências apresentadas na literatura. Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis (MAP) is the etiologic agent of Johne’s disease, an inflammatory bowel disease occurring in cattle as well as in a number of mammal species. In humans, there are evidences that point to a role of MAP as an agent of Crohn’s disease, although this is still a matter of controversy. In this review, a summary of the characteristics of Johne’s disease and Crohn’s disease will be presented, and the involvement of MAP in Crohn’s disease will be discussed, based on reported evidences.
