Target Information

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a small, self-replicating bacterium and a common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. As a surface parasite of human respiratory and urogenital tracts, its affinity for respiratory epithelial cells and secretion of hydrogen peroxide contribute to oxidative tissue damage. Infections are persistent and difficult to diagnose and treat.
