Blood samples were collected from patients with leukemia (n = 150) or lymphoma (n = 150) in the Cancer Hospital from March to September 2014. The specific antibodies (IgG, IgM) to, and circulating antigens (CAg) of Toxoplasma gondii were determined by ELISA. A 529 bp specific sequence was amplified by PCR from the genomic DNA of T. gondii. T. gondii-specific IgG positive rate in patients with leukemia and lymphoma were 16.0% (24/150) and 20.0% (30/150), respectively, which were significantly higher than that of healthy persons (6.4%, 7/110) (P0.05). IgM positive rate of the leukemia patients, lymphoma patients, and healthy persons was 2.7% (4/150), 1.3% (2/150), and 0.9% (1/110) (P0.05), respectively. No significant difference was found in IgM and CAg positive rate among leukemia patients, lymphoma patients, and healthy persons (P0.05). No specific band (529 bp) was detected in all samples. |
