“…One hallmark of these diseases is disease chronicity (47,54), but equally important is the ability to alter or circumvent the immune response and potentiate disease due to other pathogens (5,37,54). Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the causative agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, a mild, chronic pneumonia of swine commonly complicated by opportunistic infections with other bacteria (46).…”

“…These include depletion of essential nutrients, promotion of chromosome aberrations and malignant transformation, immunomodulation and alteration in virus replication (McGarrity et al, 1992;Lo, 2002;Mühlradt, 2002).…”

“…M. fermentans has received attention both for its potential roles as a primary or contributing pathogen in human disease (18,25) and due to the recent discovery of potent macrophage-modulating activity associated with distinctively modified surface lipoproteins (7,(30)(31)(32)(33)41). M. fermentans displays several variable surface proteins, some lacking orthologous counterparts in other organisms and others with assignable specific functions (6,10,11,45,46,49 In previous studies (44), P29 was shown to be an abundant surface lipoprotein of 29 kDa.…”
