Abstract EN
Fourty Persistent Pyuria Patients were diagnosed as E.
coli persistant pyuria .
Of which 33 were Immune (In a sense of mounting normal adapted immune response) and seven were immunocompromised (In a sense of mounting subnormal adapted immune response .The female / Male ratio was 13/27 .
The patients age range was 30-70 years .The median total serum protein was 7.274 g/dl .
Likewise the median serum total globulin was 4.302 g/dl .
while the median of systemic to the median of mucosal globulin ratio was 0.69 .
These scores were generally higher than those of normal control subjects .
The median immunoglobulin class concentrations were 2.339, 0.195 and 0.309 g/dl to classes IgG , IgM and IgA respectively .
E.
coli immunodominant epitopes were intiating specific circulating and mucosal agglutinin as well as significant leucocytes inhibition factors in immune patients and nonsignificant in immunocompromized .
Thus, E.
coli epitopes could be of T dependent type and activate either or both Th1 and Th2 lymphocyte, or it might be of T independent epitope type
