Advances in Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia immune mechanism / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) is caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection with respiratory tract infection with pneumonia.Recently,the incidence of MPP has been increasing year by year,and the age of onset has an earlier trend.It is easy to recur after the infection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP).The MP not only can cause respiratory disease,but also cause a wide range of extrapulmonary manifestations.Part of patients have rapid progression of disease and severe illness.Nowadays,the pathogenesis of MPP is not yet completely clear.It may be related to the direct adhesion and invasion of MP in the respiratory epithelium,toxic injury,and immunological mechanism.At present,a large number of studies have confirmed that the immune disorder and immune imbalance play a vital role in the development of MPP.This article reviews the latest research on the immunological mechanisms associated with Mycoplasma pneumonia.
