Abstract

Abstract The antibody response to Mycoplasma genitalium in serum and urethral secretions of men with nongonococcal urethritis was examined longitudinally. Serum and urethral antibodies reacted primarily with the MgpB and MgpC adhesins. Serum antibodies persisted throughout follow-up, whereas urethral antibodies waned despite organism persistence. Declining antibodies may facilitate chronic infection.
