Background Information

Genital mycoplasmas are intracellular bacteria that live in urogenital mucosal epithelial cells in

humans. They are transmitted through direct contact, therefore they can be included in the category of sexually transmitted pathogens. Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU), one of the common subspecies of genital mycoplasmas, belongs to the normal flora bacteria class. UU can be found in the vagina or cervix of approximately 40-80% of sexually mature women. It is suggested that UU may cause abnormal cervical cytopathology even though it does not cause cervicitis. Studies have shown that chronic mycoplasma infections can induce chromosomal changes that may lead

to the transformation of mammalian cells.
