Global analysis on the mutations associated with multidrug-resistant urogenital mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas infection: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2023
Background The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of genital pathogens, notably Mycoplasma genitalium and Ureaplasma spp., constitutes a significant global threat today.

Prevalence of Urogenital Mycoplasmas Among Men with NGU in Upper Silesia, Poland. Preliminary Study [PDF]

Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2016
The prevalence of urogenital mycoplasmas in men with NGU in Upper Silesia (Poland) was studied. Mycoplasmas were detected in 36.7% men (Ureaplasma parvum and Mycoplasma genitalium were found in 30% and 16.7% respectively). Urealyticum urealyticum was not

Mycoplasma genitalium infection in the female reproductive system: Diseases and treatment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Mycoplasma genitalium is a newly emerged sexually transmitted disease pathogen and an independent risk factor for female cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. The clinical symptoms caused by M. genitalium infection are mild and easily ignored.

Prevalence of cervical colonization by Ureaplasma parvum, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma genitalium in childbearing age women by a commercially available multiplex real-time PCR: An Italian observational multicentre study

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2018
Background: Mycoplasmas are frequently isolated from the genital tract. New molecular PCR-based methods for the detection of mycoplasmas can better define the real epidemiology of these microorganisms. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence

Detection of macrolide and fluoroquinolone resistance-associated 23S rRNA and parC mutations in Mycoplasma genitalium by nested real-time PCR

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundTraditional drug susceptibility testing cannot be performed in clinical laboratories due to the slow-growing characteristics of Mycoplasma genitalium when cultured in vitro. Sanger sequencing is the standard method for detecting drug resistance-

Drug Resistance–Associated Mutations in Mycoplasma genitalium in Female Sex Workers, Japan

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
Mycoplasma genitalium was detected in 21 (14.1%) of 149 vaginal swab samples and in 1 (0.7%) of 149 throat washing samples from female sex workers during 2013–2014 in Japan. Prevalences of M.

Doxycycline and Sitafloxacin Combination Therapy for Treating Highly Resistant Mycoplasma genitalium

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Antimicrobial-resistant Mycoplasma genitalium is becoming increasingly common and creating major treatment challenges. We present early data on combination therapy with doxycycline and sitafloxacin to treat highly resistant M. genitalium.

S09.4 Mycoplasma Genitalium [PDF]

Sexually Transmitted Infections, 2013
M. genitaliuminfections explain 15–25% of symptomatic male NGU and causes sexually transmitted urethritis, cervicitis, and PID in women. The bacterium is extremely difficult to isolate by culture, and consequently, the knowledge about antimicrobial resistance and its underlying molecular mechanisms has been slow to accumulate.In the few randomised ...

Adherence epitopes of Mycoplasma genitalium adhesin [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1992
The adherence-mediating sites of the 153 kDa adhesin of Mycoplasma genitalium (MgPa-protein) were characterized at the amino acid sequence level using six monoclonal anti-MgPa antibodies which showed adherence-inhibiting activity. For characterization of the regions to which antibody bound, three segments of the adhesin (N-terminal region, a D1-domain ...
