Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je dati pregled mikoplazama izdvojenih iz uzoraka
podrijetlom od pasa. Posebno smo se osvrnuli na etiološko značenje nalaza mikoplazama u pasa
s različitim kliničkim očitovanjima, a rad je objedinio dosadašnja istraživanja o mikoplazmama
pasa. U 40 godina, samo 50 publikacija obuhvatilo je polje mikoplazmologije pasa što pokazuje
potrebu za daljnjim istraživanjima. Do sada je poznato 15 vrsta mikoplazama koje uzrokuju
bolesti u pasa. Klinička očitovanja mikoplazmoza pasa su šarolika, počevši od respiratornih
bolesti, bolesti urogenitalnog trakta i steriliteta, meningoencefalomijelitisa i
meningoencefalitisa, teških anemija, septikemija do artritisa. Dijagnostika, izolacija i
identifikacija ovih mikroba otežana je zbog specifičnih fizioloških osobina mikoplazama,
rijetko se otkrivaju, a ne reagiraju na uobičajenu terapiju antimikrobnim sredstvima. Liječe se
uglavnom tetraciklinskim antibioticima, a urođeno su rezistentne na na penicilinske i
cefalosporinske antibiotike. Budući da je u nekoliko navrata dokazana prisutnost mikoplazama
pasa u ljudi, smatra se da su to bakterije sa zoonotskim potencijalom koji tek treba istražiti.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this graduate thesis was to provide a review of isolated mycoplasmas from
canine samples. We have specifically considered the aethiological significance of mycoplasmic
findings in dogs with different clinical manifestations, and this work has united past researches
of canine mycoplasmas. In 40 years there have been only 50 publications from canine
mycoplasmology field, which means it has to be more investigated. So far, 15 types of
mycoplasmas are known that cause disease in dogs. Clinical manifestations of canine
mycoplasmosis are variant, ranging from respiratory tract diseases, urogenital tract diseases and
sterility, meningoencephalomyelitis and meningoencephalitis, severe anemia, septicemia to
arthritis. Diagnosis, isolation and identification of these microbes are hampered by the
properties of mycoplasmas, they rarely reveal and do not respond to conventional antimicrobial
therapy. Mycoplasmoses are mainly treated with tetracycline antibiotics, since they are resistant
to penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics. Since the presence of canine mycoplasmas in
humans has been shown on several occasions, it is considered that the disease with zoonotic
potential is still to be investigated.
