Computational identification of putative common genomic drug and vaccine targets in Mycoplasma genitalium
2021, GenomicsCitation Excerpt :This species was first cultured by Tully et al. isolated from a male with urethritis (non-gonococcal) in 1981 [3], and it was one of the first bacterial genomes to be totally sequenced in 1995 [4]. M. genitalium is one of the sexually transmitted infection (STI) pathogens associated with non-gonococcal urethritis in men and several inflammatory reproductive tract syndromes in women such as cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and infertility [5,6]. Some studies have reported the infection of M. genitalium as a cause for infertility and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as preterm labor [7].
Mycoplasma genitalium: An emergent sexually transmitted disease?
2013, Infectious Disease Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :M genitalium was first identified in 2 of 13 urethral specimens from men with NGU2; so early studies were focused on determining whether the bacterium caused male urethritis. Since the initial discovery, a total of 33 studies in high-income countries have evaluated the association between M genitalium and male urethritis, nearly all of which reported significant associations with NGU, with odds ratios (ORs) ranging from 3.2 to 20.3 (Table 1).15–47 M genitalium is found in approximately 15% (range, 5%–33%) of men with NGU, and in approximately 22% of men with nonchlamydial NGU.
