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 ...

Seminars in Perinatology, 2007
Infection with the ureaplasmas may occur in utero or perinatally in prematurely born infants. For some infants, infection with these organisms triggers a vigorous pro-inflammatory response in the lungs and increases the risk of developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

Experimental intrauterine Ureaplasma infection in sheep

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2005
Prenatal Ureaplasma spp exposure is associated with preterm birth and modulates the neonates' susceptibility to respiratory distress syndrome and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. We hypothesized that intra-amniotic ureaplasmas would cause lung inflammation and alter fetal lung development.Pregnant ewes bearing singleton fetuses were given an intra-amniotic ...

Neonatal Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infections

Pediatric Annals, 2020
Mycoplasma species (spp.) can be commensals or opportunistic pathogens of the urogenital tract, and they can be commonly isolated from amniotic fluid, placenta, and fetal/neonatal tissue or blood in mothers delivering prematurely or their preterm infants. Although the presence of Mycoplasma spp. has been

Hyperammonaemia syndrome in disseminated Ureaplasma parvum infection

BMJ Case Reports, 2022
Hyperammonaemia syndrome secondary to Ureaplasma spp. infection is well documented in the post-lung transplant population. We report a case of a man in his fifties with hyperammonaemia syndrome secondary to disseminated Ureaplasma parvum infection. This occurred in the context of immunosuppression for chronic graft versus host disease and six years ...
