Interaction between alveolar macrophages and epithelial cells during Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection
Mycoplasma pneumoniae, as one of the most common pathogens, usually causes upper respiratory tract infections and pneumonia in humans and animals. It accounts for 10% to 40% of community-acquired pneumonia in children. The alveolar epithelial cells (AECs)

Novel hemotropic mycoplasmas are widespread and genetically diverse in vampire bats [PDF]
Bats (Order: Chiroptera) have been widely studied as reservoir hosts for viruses of concern for human and animal health. However, whether bats are equally competent hosts of non-viral pathogens such as bacteria remains an important open question. Here,

Treatment of the Mycobacterium chelonae Infection after Fat Injection
For recent years, use of autologous fat injection has increased significantly in facial contouring surgery. Along with such increase in use, complications like atypical mycoplasma infection have been also on the increasing trend.

Phase and antigenic variation in mycoplasmas [PDF]
With their reduced genome bound by a single membrane, bacteria of the Mycoplasma species represent some of the simplest autonomous life forms. Yet, these minute prokaryotes are able to establish persistent infection in a wide range of hosts, even in the ...

Mycoplasma genitalium Infection in Men [PDF]
Mycoplasmagenitalium is one of the major causes of nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) worldwide but an uncommon sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the general population. The risk of sexual transmission is probably lower than for Chlamydia trachomatis.

Impact of diversity of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae strains on lung lesions in slaughter pigs [PDF]
The importance of diversity of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. hyopneumoniae) strains is not yet fully known. This study investigated the genetic diversity of M.

Extracellular Actin Is a Receptor for Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, an agriculturally important porcine pathogen, disrupts the mucociliary escalator causing ciliostasis, loss of cilial function, and epithelial cell death within the porcine lung.
