(1) Inhalation is the commonest route of infection through aerosol transmission, (2) colonization, (3) ciliostasis of epithelia, serofibrinous pleuropneumonia, vasculitis, and fibrinocellular exudation, (4) Mycoplasmal antigens (polysaccharides, galactan, lipoprotein) activate immune system, (5) stimulation of inflammatory and oxidative cascade, (6) Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae may also affect other organs like joints, eyes, and udder.
