Introduction: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is the more severe form of Leishmaniasis and is usually fatal if untreated. Dogs are the main peridomestic reservoirs and an important step during the parasite life cycle and human infection. Those animals may develop symptoms or remain asymptomatic for long periods although both can transmit infection. Therefore, it is essential to develop effective diagnostic markers to detect symptomatic and asymptomatic dogs. Moreover, the study of new proteins or peptides may contribute to discover the role of in immune responses. The Leishmania cytosolic factor gene has been involved to visceralization of parasites. Thus, the aim of this work is to evaluate the sensibility of predicted peptides during antibody detection by ELISA. Methods and Results: The protein sequence was submitted to epitope prediction and a synthetic peptide (P35) was obtained. The selected synthetic epytopes were used for antibody detection by ELISA. The assays used sera from known negative control, clinically asymptomatic and symptomatic dogs, PCR positive/serologic negative control, and T. cruzi-infected dogs. The ELISA reaction conditions were optimized to determine the concentrations of each antigen and serum dilutions. ELISA plates were previously coated with the synthetic peptide and incubated with sera. The binding of antibodies was detected using anti-canine IgG peroxidase conjugated and the absorbance was read at 492 nm. The cut-off was determined using mean absorbance of negative samples plus two standard deviations, to discriminating positive from negative results. The results of the assays using the synthetic peptide (P35) and the peptide derived from the A2 antigen (A2-P40), which was previously tested for diagnosis of canine visceral leishmaniasis, were comparatively analyzed. The P35 peptide detected as positive 8% of sera in the control group;
80% in symptomatic group; 45% in asymptomatic group; 75% positive in PCR+/sero- group; and 25% positive in T. cruzi-infected group. The A2-P40 peptide detected as positive 16% of sera in control group and 86.67% in symptomatic, but none in the other groups. Conclusion: The P35 synthetic peptide showed a good performance as a diagnostic marker to detect infected animals by ELISA assay. However, further improvements may lead to better specificity values.
