MYCOPLASMA INFECTIONS IN CHILDHOOD

Pediatrics, 1967
Mycoplasmas compose a ubiquitous group of minute microorganisms which include saprophytes, commensals, and pathogens. Of the seven species which have been isolated from man, only Mycoplasma pneumoniae has clearly established pathogenicity. Research continues to seek other possible disease relationships, since there are various animal diseases caused by

Cytokines in Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections

Cytokine and Growth Factor Reviews, 2004
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) is one of the smallest free-living bacteria known. Along with other unique characteristics of this genus, it lacks the typical peptidoglycan cell wall of most eubacteria. Best known for causing tracheobronchitis and atypical pneumonia in humans, this pathogen also causes a number of extrapulmonary syndromes such as

Mycoplasma Infection and Infertility

Fertility and Sterility, 1979
Attempts were made to isolate mycoplasmas from the uterine cervix of infertile women and normal pregnant and nonpregnant women to investigate the relationship of genital mycoplasma infection to infertility. Ureaplasma urealyticum was demonstrated in 63% of patients with infertility, 68% of normal pregnant women, and 62% of normal nonpregnant women. The

Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infections

2003
Organisms of the class Mollicutes (meaning soft-skin) have regressively evolved, by genome reduction, from Gram-positive bacterial ancestors, namely certain clostria (1). The taxonomy of the class Mollicutes, containing four orders, five familes, and eight genera, is shown in Table 1 (2) The term "mollicute" is sometimes trivially used to describe any ...

Genital Mycoplasma Infections

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1989
Seven different mycoplasmas have been isolated from the human genitourinary tract. The diseases they cause or with which they have been associated are described. Diagnosis of infection by cultural and noncultural (antigen detection, DNA probes) methods is discussed in detail. The more useful serologic procedures are included as well.

Genital mycoplasma infections

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1978
Three different species of mycoplasmas--M. hominis, M. fermentans, and Ureaplasma urealyticum--have been found to infect human genitalia. In the man, mycoplasmas appear to play a role in the etiology of nonspecific urethritis and prostatis. Mycoplasmas repeatedly have been cultured from the tubes of patients with acute salpingitis and a significant ...

Mycoplasma Infections of Man

New England Journal of Medicine, 1965
Mycoplasma pneumoniae. History. In the late 1930's and early 1940's a broad group of nonbacterial pneumonias was first recognized and given the name of primary atypical pneumonia.83 , 84 The name was applied to pneumonia that was unlike the typical lobar disease caused by Diplococcus pneumoniae. A description of primary atypical pneumonia as a clinical
