New tools are required for the diagnosis of pre-symptomatic leprosy towards further reduction of disease burden and its associated reactions. To address this need, two new skin test antigens were developed to assess safety and efficacy in human trial

True incidence of leprosy and its impact on transmission will not be understood until a tool is available to measure pre-symptomatic infection. Diagnosis of leprosy disease is currently based on clinical symptoms, which on average take 3-10 years to

The cell-mediated immunity (CMI)-based in vitro gamma interferon release assay (IGRA) of Mycobacterium leprae -specific antigens has potential as a promising diagnostic means to detect those individuals in the early stages of M. leprae infection. Dia

Although the global prevalence of leprosy has decreased over the last few decades due to an effective multidrug regimen, large numbers of new cases are still being reported, raising questions as to the ability to identify patients likely to spread di

Molecular diagnostic and epidemiology studies require appreciable amounts of high-quality DNA. Molecular epidemiologic methods have not been routinely applied to the obligate intracellular organism Mycobacterium leprae because of the difficulty of ob

The need for molecular tools for the differentiation of isolates of Mycobacterium leprae , the organism that causes leprosy, is urgent in view of the continuing high levels of new case detection, despite years of aggressive chemotherapy and the conse

Animal models are often used to identify aspects of the pathophysiology and to develop new therapeutic interventions for human disorders. Leukocyte serine elastases are key mediators of inflammation and meaningful therapeutic targets because of their

Mycobacterium leprae is the noncultivable pathogen of leprosy. Since the genome sequence of an isolate of M. leprae has become available, multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) has been explored as a tool for strain typin

Despite the success of multidrug therapy in reducing the number of registered leprosy cases worldwide, evidence suggests thatMycobacterium lepraecontinues to be transmitted. A serological diagnostic test capable of identifying and allowing treatment
