Myoplasm

Myoplasm is another name for sarcoplasm. Sarcoplasm is the cytoplasm of muscle cells. It contains organelles, including mitochondria, that provide cells with energy. Sarcoplasm also contains myofibrils, which are responsible for the contraction of muscle cells. Thus, myoplasm is an important component of muscle cells, allowing them to perform their functions.



Myoplasma is a conditionally pathogenic bacterium that occupies an intermediate position between a virus and a cellular organism; some representatives may be present in the human body normally.\n\nManifestations can vary - from redness of the skin around the affected joint to the development of complete paralysis of the limb. Since myplasmas are present in the form of single cells or chains, these bacteria are difficult to detect under microscopic examination. The occurrence of non-inflammatory processes may be accompanied by partial muscle atrophy and functional disorders. \nMyoplasm has a number of features; First of all, they include infectivity. Most representatives of this group serve as causative agents of mixed infections in eukaryotic organisms, and also cause human pathologies accompanied by soft tissue diseases. Of the existing varieties of pathogens, only 2-3% cause dangerous diseases in humans. \n\nAll species are described as obligate pathogens capable of parasitizing inside cellular structures. With their help, microorganisms suppress the body's protective functions and can disrupt nerve conduction. There are two types of pathogens: pathogenic, causing infectious processes, and non-pathogenic. \n \nThe mycoplasma species Mycoplasma pulmonis has a wide range of hosts - it can affect people, cattle, pigs, sheep and birds. This bacterium is extremely sensitive to environmental conditions and is isolated as a pathogen seasonally - during the warm season. During the winter months, parasites live together with other microorganisms that infect the respiratory tract.\n
