Table 1.

(A) Map-related granulomatous diseases. (B) Map-associated autoimmune diseases.

(A) MAP-RELATED GRANULOMATOUS DISEASES
Disease Shared genetic susceptibility Reference

Crohn’s CARD15, SLC11A1 (8, 51, 52, 57, 59, 62, 64)
Sarcoidosis SLC11A1 (54, 69)
Blau syndrome CARD15 (5256, 60)

These granulomatous diseases are ones where evidence of MAP can be found in the granuloma. CARD15, caspase recruitment domain gene 15; SLC11a1, solute carrier 11a1 gene.

(B) MAP-ASSOCIATED AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES
Disease Mimicking elements Reference

Autoimmune diabetes HSP65/GAD (31, 8688, 9094)
MAP3865c/ZnT8 – pancreatic
Autoimmune thyroiditis MAP3865c/ZnT8 – thyroid (35, 36)
Multiple sclerosis HSP70, MAP_2694, MAP4027, MAP_2619c 352-61, MAP_0106c protein 121–132 (3749)

These autoimmune diseases have autoantibodies. There are share molecular elements between MAP proteins and host organs. HSP65, heat shock protein 65; GAD, glutamic acid decarboxylase; MAP3865c, M. paratuberculosis protein 3865c; ZnT8, zinc transporter 8; HSP70, heat shock protein 70; MAP-0106c, M. paratuberculosis 0106c protein (aa. 121–132); MBP85-98, myelin basic protein (aa. 85–98).
