Article Synopsis
- Bovine paratuberculosis is a severe infection causing malnutrition and death in cattle, with a long subclinical phase before severe symptoms develop.
- A study used high-resolution mass spectrometry to analyze serum lipids in both infected and healthy cattle, revealing significant decreases in crucial phosphocholine-containing lipids in infected individuals showing clinical signs.
- These lipid changes likely occur due to malnutrition and impaired liver and gut function late in the disease, which may also have implications for human health, especially regarding Crohn's disease and multiple sclerosis.
