Full textLas leishmaniosis son un grupo de enfermedades causadas por protozoos del género Leishmania que se transmiten por vectores. La leishmaniosi visceral (LV) humana puede ser mortal si no se trata, resultando en 26 000-65 000 muertes por año. Los cánidos son el principal reservorio y huéspedes de Leishmania infantum, el agente causante de la LV zoonótica en la cuenca mediterránea. Se desconoce el mecanismo que regula el resultado final de la infección, pero se sabe que el sistema inmunitario juega un papel clave en el control de la enfermedad. Varios estudios han demostrado que la vitamina D tiene un rol importante en la respuesta inmune, activando el sistema inmunitario innato y modulando la respuesta adaptativa. Además, se ha descrito la relación entre la deficiencia de vitamina D y el riesgo de sufrir algunas enfermedades. El objetivo de la tesis fue estudiar si la vitamina D tiene una contribución relevante en la leishmaniosis canina (LCan). Para ello se determinó la concentración de vitamina D en muestras de suero de una población de perros sanos y enfermos de leishmaniosis residentes en una zona altamente endémica y se estudió la relación de ésta con parámetros parasitológicos e inmunológicos. Los perros enfermos mostraron niveles de vitamina D significativamente más bajos que los no infectados y que los infectados asintomáticos. Además, la deficiencia de vitamina D se correlacionó con parámetros relacionados con la progresión de la enfermedad. También investigamos si las variaciones genéticas en el locus del gen del receptor de la vitamina D se asocia con la progresión de LCan, pero las frecuencias alélicas de los polimorfismos (SNPs) encontrados no resultaron ser estadísticamente diferentes entre grupos. Posteriormente se analizó la concentración de vitamina D en muestras de suero tomadas en diferentes periodos del año en una cohorte de perros sanos. Los resultados mostraron que no hay una variación estacional de los niveles de vitamina D en perros. También se analizó retrospectivamente la concentración de vitamina D en perros con leishmaniosis clínica y perros no infectados al inicio del estudio, cuando todos los animales eran negativos a Leishmania, y un año después. Mientras que los perros sanos no mostraron cambios en los niveles de vitamina D durante el estudio, los que desarrollaron leishmaniosis mostraron una reducción significativa al final del estudio. Por lo tanto, la concentración de vitamina D no es un factor de riesgo para desarrollar LCan, sino que disminuye con el curso de la enfermedad. Un modelo in vitro demostró que añadir vitamina D activa (1,25(OH)2D3) conlleva una reducción significativa de la carga de L. infantum en macrófagos caninos. Analizando la expresión de genes relacionados con la vía de la vitamina D en monocitos caninos primarios demostramos que la expresión de la β-defensina CBD103 aumenta significativamente con la adición de 1,25(OH)2D3. Los resultados corroboraron que la vitamina D juega un papel en el control del parásito. Por últimos, se estudió la viabilidad de la vitamina D como adyuvante para potenciar el efecto de una vacuna frente la leishmaniosis. Se administró vitamina D junto a una vacuna de ADN encapsulada en liposomas a ratones BALB/c. Dos semanas después de la vacunación los animales se infectaron con L. infantum. Se determinó la carga parasitaria en órganos diana y se evaluó la respuesta inmune antes de la infección y seis semanas después. La vacuna no redujo significativamente la carga parasitaria, pero con la coadministración de vitamina D se apreció una tendencia a reducirla. El estudio de la respuesta inmunológica sugirió que el aumento de linfocitos T CD4+ y CD8+ podrían haber contribuido a la protección parcial conseguida cuando se administró vitamina D como potenciador junto a la vacuna.
Leishmaniasis are a group of neglected vector-borne diseases caused by obligate intracellular protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania. Human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) can be fatal if left untreated, resulting in 26 000-65 000 deaths per year. Canids are the main reservoir and hosts of L. infantum, the causative agent of zoonotic VL in the Mediterranean Basin. The mechanisms that regulate the outcome of the infection are undisclosed, although it is well known that immune system plays a key role in leishmaniasis disease control. Several studies have shown that vitamin D plays an important immunomodulatory role by activating innate immune system and modulating the adaptive immune response. Furthermore, the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and the risk of suffering from a plethora of health disorders has been described. The aim of the thesis was to study if vitamin D have a relevant contribution in canine leishmaniasis (CanL). Because of that, we measured vitamin D concentration in serum samples from a cohort of healthy and ill dogs from a highly endemic area and we have also studied the relationship of vitamin D concentration with parasitological and immunological parameters. The sick dogs presented significantly lower vitamin D levels than their non-infected and the asymptomatic counterparts. In addition, vitamin D deficiency correlated with several parameters linked to leishmaniasis progression. We also aimed to investigate whether genetic variation within the vitamin D receptor gene locus is associated with the progression of CanL, but the allelic frequencies of the four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found were not statistically different between groups. Afterwards, we analysed retrospectively vitamin D concentration in serum samples from a cohort of healthy dogs collected in different periods of the year. The results showed that there is not a seasonal variation of vitamin D concentration in dogs. We also analysed retrospectively vitamin D concentration in serum samples from dogs with clinical leishmaniasis and non-infected healthy dogs, in which we measured vitamin D levels at the beginning of the study, when all dogs were negative for Leishmania, and 1 year later. Whereas non-infected dogs showed no changes in vitamin D levels along the study, those developing clinical leishmaniasis showed a significant vitamin D reduction at the end of the study. Therefore, vitamin D concentration is not a risk factor for developing canine leishmaniasis, but it diminishes with the onset of clinical disease. An in vitro model using a canine macrophage cell line proved that adding active vitamin D (1,25(OH)2D3) leads to a significant reduction in L. infantum load. Analyzing expression of genes related to vitamin D pathway on primary canine monocytes, we showed that defensin CBD103 expression was significantly enhanced after active vitamin D addition. The in vitro results corroborated that vitamin D plays a role in parasitic control. Finally, we studied the suitability of vitamin D as an adjuvant to enhance the effect of a DNA vaccine against VL. BALB/c mice were treated with vitamin D concomitantly with a DNA vaccine encapsulated in liposomes. Two weeks after vaccination, the animals were infected with L. infantum parasites. Parasite load was measured in target tissues and immune response was evaluated before challenge and six weeks post-infection. Our DNA vaccine did not significantly reduce parasite load in liver nor spleen, but vitamin D coadministration showed a tendency to diminish parasite load in target organs. The study of cell response in splenocytes suggested that higher levels of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells may be responsible for the partial protection mediated by the DNA vaccine with vitamin D as enhancer.

Resumo: A Leishmaniose Visceral Americana (LVA) é uma zoonose causada pelo protozoário Leishmania (L.) infantum e transmitida predominantemente pelo flebotomíneo Lutzomyia longipalpis. No meio urbano, o cão doméstico atua como reservatório e fonte de infecção para o homem. A LVA é uma zoonose de caráter reemergente e um grave problema de saúde pública. As estratégias de controle de LVA estão contidas no Programa Brasileiro de Vigilância e Controle (PCLV) e estão centradas no controle do reservatório e vetores e na educação em saúde. Em Campinas, no final do ano de 2009, foi confirmado o primeiro caso de LVA canino autóctone em área de proteção ambiental na região leste da cidade. Após as investigações de foco foram diagnosticados casos adicionais de LVA em cães e identificada a presença do vetor. Com esta ocorrência, passou a ser considerado município com transmissão canina. O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever a organização espacial do primeiro foco de LVA de Campinas sob as perspectivas ecológica, geográfica e social a fim de obter uma melhor compreensão das interações entre meio ambiente, sociedade, os riscos em saúde pública e as dificuldades na execução do preconizado pelo PCLV. Para avaliar tais dificuldades foi realizado também estudo qualitativo através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com coordenadores de municípios de grande porte com transmissão canina e/ou humana (Bauru, Belo Horizonte, Campo Grande, Goiânia e Fortaleza) de LVA. Por fim, foi avaliado uso de coleiras impregnadas com deltametrina a 4% como medida para diminuição da prevalência canina e consequentemente evitar casos humanos em Campinas. Os achados neste trabalho mostram que no Brasil as intervenções de saúde pública não têm apresentado resultados positivos na prática uma vez que há descontinuidade das atividades de controle devido a recursos insuficientes para sustentabilidade das ações e há resistência dos sujeitos implicados pela doença, particularmente associados ao reservatório canino e ao controle químico. Avaliou-se também que, embora sejam consideradas estratégicas, as ações de comunicação relacionadas a esse agravo não têm conseguido alcançar os objetivos de estimular a adesão ao programa e evitar desconfortos nas comunidades atingidas. Por fim, o uso de coleiras inseticidas foi considerado positivo como medida auxiliar na diminuição da prevalência canina com boa aceitação da comunidade. E em conclusão, ficou clara a necessidade de reavaliação da política brasileira de controle de LVA para garantia de maior efetividade na prevenção e controle da doença
Abstract: American Visceral Leishmaniasis (AVL) is a zoonosis caused by Leishmania (L.) infantum protozoa and transmitted by the Lutzomyia longipalpis phlebotomus as the main vector. In urban environment, dogs act as a reservoir and source of infection for vectors. American visceral leishmaniasis is a reemerging zoonosis and a serious public health problem. The guidelines of the Brazilian Program of Surveillance and Disease Control (PCLV) have their bases in control of the reservoir, vector and in health education. Campinas was added to the list of municipalities with established canine transmission kept by the state's AVL Surveillance and Control Program in 2009, with the confirmation of the first autochthonous case of canine AVL. Disease notification occurred in a residential lot with good infrastructure and resident population with high socioeconomic status, situated in an environmental protection area of the east part of the city. The present study aims at describing the process of investigation of reservoirs, vectors and environment associated with the outbreak of canine AVL in a grand scale municipality and the difficulties in implementing the measures proposed by PCLV. In order to evaluate these difficulties a qualitative study was also performed through semi-structured interviews with coordinators of large municipalities with canine and / or human transmission (Bauru (SP), Goiania (GO), Campo Grande (MT), Fortaleza (EC) and Belo Horizonte (MG)). Finally was evaluated the use of deltamethrin impregnated collars as a measure to decrease the prevalence of canine AVL and thus avoid human cases in Campinas. The findings in this study show that in Brazil the interventions have not produced positive results in the municipal level. The main problems referred were: discontinuity of the activities and strength of subjects involved by the disease, particularly associated with canine reservoir and housing fumigation. It was evaluated also that, although considered strategic, communication actions have not been able to achieve the goals of encouraging adherence to the program and to avoid discomfort in the affected communities. In conclusion, there is a clear need for reassessment of Brazilian policy for the control and prevention of LV to ensure effectiveness of actions

Full textThe gut microbiota (consortium of all the microorganisms that inhabit the gastrointestinal tract) plays different roles in the host. Among these, its relationship with the immune system has been of great interest in the last few years. Indeed, several studies highlight the presence of dysbiosis not only in gastrointestinal diseases, but also during autoimmune or infectious diseases. Literature about this topic is scarce in veterinary medicine. Thus, in this project, the possible relationship between gut microbiota and two specific diseases (feline infectious peritonis -FIP- and canine leishmaniasis) was investigated. These diseases were chosen due to the pivotal role of the immune response in their pathogenesis. The aims of this projects were: the evaluation of gut microbiota of cats with and without FIP (study I). Since in vivo diagnosis of FIP is quite challenging, the potential role of paroxonase-1 (a negative acute phase protein strongly influenced by oxidation) as a biomarker of FIP was investigated (studies II-III). For the same reason, the diagnostic agreement among histopathology, immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR on different organs was evaluated (study IV). Finally, the gut microbiota composition in dogs infected or not by Leishmania spp. was investigated. The results were correlated with the leukocyte populations studied by flow cytometry (studies V-VI). Results obtained in this project provided preliminary data about gut microbiota composition in cats affected by FIP or only Coronavirus positive. This achievement needs to be further investigated on a bigger sample size (study I). Paraoxonase-1 reference interval and its good performance as a diagnostic biomarker of FIP were determined (studies II-III). Despite the immunohistochemistry is still the gold standard for FIP diagnosis, the good diagnostic agreement obtained in the study suggested that a possible association with RT-PCR could minimize diagnostic errors (study IV). Finally, the gut microbiota composition and leukocyte populations of leishmaniotic dogs highlighted some significant differences compared with both healthy and exposed asymptomatic dogs. These promising results could be a starting point for further researches (studies V-VI).

Resumo: A incidência das leishmanioses tegumentar (LTA) e visceral americanas (LVA) em hospedeiros caninos e humanos encontra-se em crescente expansão no Brasil. Para a vigilância epidemiológica dessas endemias, é fundamental o conhecimento da distribuição das diferentes espécies vetoras de flebotomíneos e, para a LVA, o conhecimento de parâmetros epidemiológicos como a prevalência, incidência, período de incubação e potencial de transmissibilidade de Leishmania infantum chagasi no cão, seu principal reservatório. Objetivou-se assim esclarecer alguns aspectos epidemiológicos das infecções caninas, incluindo-se levantamento entomológico no município de Monte Mor, situado na região centro-leste do estado de São Paulo, além da obtenção de parâmetros epidemiológicos da LVA por estudo longitudinal de 105 cães em área endêmica para a doença em Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, por dois anos. Em Monte Mor, 319 amostras de soro canino foram avaliadas por ELISA e RIFI, sendo todas negativas para anticorpos anti-Leishmania, identificou-se sete espécies de flebotomíneos, com predomínio de Nyssomyia neivai (48,84%) considerada a principal transmissora do agente causador da LTA no interior paulista, além do diagnóstico de dois casos caninos de LTA, com sorologia reagente para ELISA FML e infecção por L. (Viannia) braziliensis. No estudo longitudinal dos 105 cães acompanhados por meio de avaliações clínicas, exames sorológicos (ELISA L. major-like, FML e S7) e parasitológicos diretos (esfregaços e PCR de aspirados de medula óssea e linfonodo e imunoistoquímica de pele) obteve-se prevalência sorológica inicial de 30,40% (145/477) no ELISA L. major-like e 26,28% (97/369) no ELISA FML. A prevalência da doença clínica (sintomáticos) foi de 7,13% (62/870), sendo que 24,53% (117/477) foram soropositivos no ELISA L. major-like, mas sem sintomas de leishmaniose visceral canina (LVC), demonstrando quantidade elevada de cães infectados assintomáticos na área. Ao final de 24 meses não se observou associação estatística significativa nas variáveis ambientais avaliadas no início do estudo e a ocorrência de casos de LVC, como a ocorrência prévia de LVA e/ou LVC no entorno ou na casa do proprietário, a existência de outras espécies animais na casa, o hábito intra ou peridomiciliar, o temperamento, a idade e o sexo do cão. A incidência de novas infecções variou de 11,76% (8/68), 11,76% (8/68) e 18,18% (12/66) respectivamente entre o Dia -30 e Zero, Dia Zero e Mês 12 por sorologia e Dia Zero e Mês 12 para os métodos diretos. A mortalidade natural e induzida via eutanásia de animais doentes e/ou infectados foi de 28,57% (30/105). O período de incubação médio foi de 6,46 meses. Alguns animais infectados com resultados positivos em prova diagnóstica de PCR e/ou prova de sorologia no início do estudo não apresentaram novos resultados positivos após 12 meses, indicando possível cura ou não estabelecimento da infecção. Observaram-se alguns animais com provas diretas positivas mostrando infecção assintomática por período de 24 meses. Obteve-se baixa prevalência de amastigotas em pele saudável, presente apenas em animais sintomáticos, enquanto que a ausência de amastigotas observada em cães portadores assintomáticos indica que os mesmos podem não ter papel importante na transmissão de parasitas ao flebotomíneo vetor
Abstract: Cutaneous (ACL) and visceral american leishmaniasis (AVL) incidences in human and canine hosts are increasing and expanding in Brazil. In order to perform an adequate vigilance of these diseases, the knowledge regarding distribution of different sandfly vector species is mandatory, besides of precising epidemiological parameters like prevalence, incidence, incubation period and potential of transmissibility in the dog, the main reservoir for the AVL etiologic agent. This way, the objectives of this study were to clarify some epidemiological aspects of canine leishmaniases, including entomological surveillance in the county of Monte Mor, central east region of São Paulo state and performance of a longitudinal study in an AVL endemic area located in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul state, including 105 dogs in order to evaluate epidemiological data during two years. In Monte Mor county, 319 sera samples were analysed through in house developed ELISA and IFA methods. No seropositive result was found, seven different sandfly species were identified, prevailing Nyssomyia neivai (48.84%) considered the main vector for the ACL etiologic agent in São Paulo state countryside, and two dogs were diagnosed with ACL symptoms, presenting seropositivity through ELISA FML and positive identification of L. (Viannia) braziliensis infection using PCR. The longitudinal study was performed using clinical examination, serology (ELISA L. major-like, FML and S7) and direct diagnostic techniques (bone marrow and lymph node smears and PCR and immunohistochemistry in skin tissues) on dogs. A seroprevalence of 30.40% (145/477) at ELISA L. major-like and 26.28% (97/369) at ELISA FML was obtained at the pre-initial phase. Clinical disease prevalence was 7.13% (62/870), and 24.53% (117/477) dogs were seropositive at ELISA L. major-like, but asymptomatic, showing the high amount of infected healthy carriers. At the end of the 24 months period no significant association was found between visceral leishmaniasis (VL) canine cases with environmental variables evaluated at Day Zero like previous registration of human or canine VL on the study house or neighborhood, other domestic animal species at the backyard, intra or peridomiciliar, aggressive behavior, age or sex of the study dog. Incidence of infections varied from 11.76% (8/68), 11.76% (8/68) e 18.18% (12/66) respectively between Day -30 and Zero, Day Zero and Month 12 using serology and Day Zero and Month 12 for direct diagnostic methods. Natural and induced mortality through euthanasia of sick/infected dogs was 28.57% (30/105). The mean disease incubation period was 6.46 months. Some of the infected animals with positive diagnosis at the beggining of the study had no other positive results after 12 months, indicating a possible cure or an absence of infection establishment, while others had positive diagnosis at the beginning and at month 12 with asymptomatic condition for more than 24 months. A low Leishmania amastigotes prevalence at healthy skin was obtained and positive results were observed only in symptomatic animals. Absence of parasites in skin of asymptomatic carriers may indicate they have no important role on the transmission of Leishmania to competent vectors

Abstract: Applicability of ultrasonography and sonoelastography for characterization of lymph node lesions has not been established. The aim of the first study was to compare sonographic and sonoelastographic features between 50 neoplastic and 69 non-neoplastic lymph nodes of dogs, categorized according to microscopy. We hypothesize that sonography and sonoelastography allow the differentiation between neoplastic and non-neoplastic lymph node lesions. Quantitative variables were compared using Student’s unpaired t test and categoric variables were assessed using non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test. Neoplastic nodes had larger size, and short-to-long axis, predominantly mixed vascular flow distribution (hilar and peripheral) on Color Doppler and on Power Doppler, higher resistivity and pulsatility indices, and higher stiffness (score predominantly 4) on elastographic chromatic scale in comparison with non-neoplastic lymph nodes. The aim of the second study was to describe sonographic and elastosonographic features of 25 canine lymph nodes parasitized with Leishmania spp. We hypothesize that sonography and sonoelastography allow standardization of lymph nodes with Leishmania spp. There was enlargement of the lymph nodes associated with maintenance of the shape. Most of the nodes had irregular contour, well-defined borders and absent hilar tissue definition. A minority of the nodes had heterogeneous uniformity due to focal hypoechoic areas or peripheric hypoechoic areas. Vascular flow dist... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Canine babesiosis and canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) are vector borne diseases, where dogs exert a play as reservoir or source for arthropods responsible by the transmission of these protozoosis. Babesia canis vogeli, is transmited by tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus while Leishmania infantum (sin. Leishmania chagasi) is transmited by sand fly (Lutzomyia longipalpis). The results showed that CVL remains endemic in São Luís Municipality. Despite that the coinfection between Leishmania and Babesia was low considering that both diseases are endemic in this tropical area. Beside that was observed that Yorkshire terrier presented higher predisposition to acquire the infection by B. canis vogeli. A remarkable result was the occurrence of ocular lesions associated to L. infantum infection.
A babesiose canina e a leishmaniose visceral canina são doenças transmitidas por vetores, sendo os cães competentes reservatórios e fonte alimentar dos artrópodes envolvidos. Babesia canis vogeli, é um parasita intraeritrocitário transmitido pelo carrapato Rhipicephalus sanguineus. Leishmania infantum (sin. Leishmania chagasi) transmitidos a mamíferos pela picada dos flebotomíneos (Lutzomyia longipalpis), infectando macrófagos do Sistema Fagocítico Mononuclear do hospedeiro. O presente trabalho é divido em capítulos e os resultados encontrados mostraram que a leishmaniose visceral canina ainda é endêmica no município de São Luís, e que apesar disso a taxa de coinfecção com Babesia foi baixa. Também foi observado que a raça Yorkshire terrier, dentre as raças estudadas, apresentou maior predisposição para contrair a infecção por B. canis vogeli. Outro resultado significativo foi a ocorrência de lesões oculares associadas à infecção por L. infantum.
