Ref.: (LML) detection of autoantibodies in leprosy
From: Jingquan Wang, Zhejiang, China
Dear Pieter,
Greeting from Zhejiang,China.
I have examined 43 leprosy cured cases in our leprosy colony. I found over 1/3 leprosy cases with positive antinuclear antibodies, whereas there is no anyone with positive syphilis antibodies(TRUST and TP-RT). I also found 3 cases with positive thyroid auto antibodies and 9 cases with positive anti-streptolysin o test. I am confused with the results. Are there any clinic meaning of these antibodies for cured leprosy cases? Should I take some measures to treat the aged cured leprosy cases? I wish LML readers can give me some suggestions and explanation?
Best regards.
