Antibodies (Abs) (IgM, IgA, IgG and IgG subclasses) specific for several uropathogenic strains (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas sp. and Klebsiella sp.) as well as anti-phospholipids, anti-beta2-glycoprotein I and anti-laminin antibodies were analyzed in the sera of 20 patients with long-lasting uncomplicated recurrent infections of the lower urinary tract who underwent immunization treatment with a mixture of heat-inactivated bacteria. Immunization had a dual effect: a marked prolongation of the infection-free period in more than half of tested patients (which could be related to the profiles of anti-bacterial antibodies), and the induction of a significant decrease in autoreactivity. The results obtained showed that prolonged infections resulted in a significant rise in IgG specific for phospholipids, beta2-glycoprotein I and mouse laminin. However, irrespective of the effect on urinary tract infection per se, immunization induced a noticeable decrease in reactivity toward those antigens (Ag). The most abundant autoantibodies prior to immunization treatment were of IgG2 subclass. A statistically significant decrease in phospholipid specific antibodies belonging to this subclass, and in the concentration of Y7 cross-reactive idiotope, registered only in the responder group; this indicates the significance of natural antibody pool involvement in a proper anti-bacterial immune response.
