Attachment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae to Respiratory Epithelium

  • Chapter
Bacterial Adherence

Part of the book series: Receptors and Recognition ((RERE,volume 6))

Abstract

In the pathogenesis of infectious diseases, the infecting organism may gain entrance into the host by trauma or the bite of a vector on the external skin; however, most infections begin on the much larger internal surface areas of the respiratory, gastrointestinal or urogenital systems covered by mucous membranes. In order to be successful in establishing an infection, the microbial organism must overcome the defense mechanisms present on mucous membranes and be able to attach and multiply on the lining epithelial cells (Smith, 1977).
