Universal serologic reaction in leprosy.
It has long been known that the serum of certain leprosy patients gives positive reactions with tests for syphilis. These reactions have not been understood and have been interpreted as biologic ‘(false positives.” The reason for this interpretation undoubtedly lies in the widespread assumption that only in syphilis and in closely related diseases, such as yaws and bejel, are serum reactions wi...
متن کاملSerologic cross-reactivity between Anaplasma marginale and Anaplasma phagocytophilum.
In the context of a serosurvey conducted on the Anaplasma marginale prevalence in Swiss cattle, we suspected that a serological cross-reactivity between A. marginale and A. phagocytophilum might exist. In the present study we demonstrate that cattle, sheep and horses experimentally infected with A. phagocytophilum not only develop antibodies to A. phagocytophilum (detected by immunofluorescent-...
متن کاملSerologic reactivity to the emerging pathogen Granulibacter bethesdensis.
BACKGROUND Granulibacter bethesdensis is a recently described member of the Acetobacteraceae family that has been isolated from patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). Its pathogenesis, environmental reservoir(s), and incidence of infection among CGD patients and the general population are unknown. METHODS Detected antigens were identified by mass spectroscopy after 2-dimensional e...

Trypanosomatidae is a group of protozoa belonging to Trypanosomatida order, where the genres of medical importance Leishmania and Trypanosoma are inserted. These genres include parasites Leishmania spp., Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei, etiologic agents of leishmaniasis, Chagas disease and sleeping sickness, respectively classified as Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) by the World Hea...
متن کاملSerologic diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays with recombinant antigens.
Class-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) with purified recombinant antigens of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto and Western blot analyses with whole cells of this spirochete were used to test human sera to determine which antigens were diagnostically important. In analyses for immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies, 14 (82%) of 17 serum samples from persons who had erythema migra...
