ABSTRACT
Although the ability of internalized mycoplasmas to multiply within the host cell remains to be convincingly demonstrated, reports of invasive mycoplasmas offer new insights into the potential virulence strategies employed by mycoplasmas. Several factors are suspected to play a role in gastrointestinal diseases, including exogenous chemical, genetic factors, pathological conditions and infectious agents in the gastrointestinal tract. This review describes the role of mycoplasmas in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal diseases.
