          Abstract

          Na atualidade, o sorovar Copenhageni é o representante do sorogrupo Icterohaemorrhagiae, mantido por roedores sinantrópicos, que tem prevalecido nos cães e seres humanos das grandes metrópoles brasileiras. A despeito de alguns autores sugerirem a existência de proteção cruzada entre sorovares incluídos em um mesmo sorogrupo esta condição ainda não foi suficientemente esclarecida para os sorovares Icterohaemorrhagiae e Copenhageni. No presente trabalho cães adultos com dois a seis anos de idade primo-vacinados com três doses intervaladas de 30 dias a partir dos 60 dias de idade e revacinados anualmente com vacina anti-leptospirose polivalente contendo os sorovares Canicola, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Grippotyphosa e Pomona foram revacinados com a mesma vacina e aos 30 dias da revacinação foram submetidos aos testes de soroaglutinação microscópica (SAM) e de inibição do crescimento de leptospiras in vitro (TICL), para avaliação comparativa dos níveis de anticorpos produzidos para os sorovares Canicola, Icterohaemorrhagiae e Copenhageni. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que a imunidade conferida pela vacina para o sorovar Icterohaemorrhagiae é mais duradoura que a observada para o sorovar Canicola, já que títulos de anticorpos neutralizantes >1,0 log10 foram observados antes do reforço vacinal não havendo substancial aumento após a revacinação. Quanto ao sorovar Canicola, a revacinação resultou em considerável aumento do título de anticorpos neutralizantes quando comparado ao momento anterior a revacinação (p=0,001). A análise dos valores encontrados após a revacinação demonstrou claramente que cães revacinados com bacterina produzida com o sorovar Icterohaermorrhagiae não apresentam aumento do título de anticorpos inibidores do crescimento contra o sorovar Copenhageni, em nível suficiente para inibir o crescimento de leptospiras. Apesar disso, os títulos de anticorpos inibidores de crescimento anti-Copenhageni encontrados antes e após a revacinação demonstraram que, pelo menos certo grau de proteção contra a infecção por esse sorovar pode ser esperado para os cães vacinados com bacterinas do sorovar Icterohaemorrhagiae, não sendo, no entanto, uma proteção cruzada completa.

          Translated abstract

          Currently, the serovar Copenhageni is the representative of serogroup Icterohaemorrhagiae maintained in synanthropic rodents found most frequently in dogs and humans in metropolitan areas of Brazil. Despite some authors have suggested the existence of cross-protection between serovars included in the same serogroup, this condition has not yet been sufficiently clarified for serovars Icterohaemorrhagiae and Copenhageni. In the present work, 2 to 6-year-old dogs, vaccinated at 60, 90 and 120 days of age and thereafter, revaccinated annually with commercial vaccine containing Canicola, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Grippotyphosa and Pomona bacterins were evaluated as to the immune status against leptospirosis before and 30 days after revaccination. Mycroscopic agglutination test (MAT) and in vitro growth inhibition test (GIT) were performed to search for agglutinating anti-Leptospira antibodies and neutralizing anti-Leptospira antibodies, respectively for serovars Canicola and Icterohaemorrhagiae, and additionally, for serovar Copenhageni, not included in the vaccine. The results showed that the immunity conferred by the vaccine to serovar Icterohaemorrhagiae is more lasting than that observed for serovar Canicola, since neutralizing antibody titers >1.0 log10 were observed before the booster vaccination with no substantial increase after revaccination. As for the serovar Canicola, revaccination resulted in a considerable increase in neutralizing antibody titer when compared to the one observed previously to the revaccination (p=0.001). The analysis of the data obtained by GIT allowed us to conclude that dogs given vaccine containing Icterohaemorrhagiae bacterin did not produce neutralizing antibodies against serovar Copenhageni enough to inhibit leptopiral growth at the same level as occurred for the homologous serovar. Despite this, the GIT titer found for serovar Copenhageni before and after revaccination showed that at least, some level of protection could be expected for dogs vaccinated with serovar Icterohaemorrhagiae bacterin, not a complete cross protection.

          Leptospirosis

          Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonotic infection with a much greater incidence in tropical regions and has now been identified as one of the emerging infectious diseases. The epidemiology of leptospirosis has been modified by changes in animal husbandry, climate, and human behavior. Resurgent interest in leptospirosis has resulted from large outbreaks that have received significant publicity. The development of simpler, rapid assays for diagnosis has been based largely on the recognition that early initiation of antibiotic therapy is important in acute disease but also on the need for assays which can be used more widely. In this review, the complex taxonomy of leptospires, previously based on serology and recently modified by a genotypic classification, is discussed, and the clinical and epidemiological value of molecular diagnosis and typing is also evaluated.

              2010 ACVIM Small Animal Consensus Statement on Leptospirosis: Diagnosis, Epidemiology, Treatment, and Prevention

              This report offers a consensus opinion on the diagnosis, epidemiology, treatment, and prevention of leptospirosis in dogs, an important zoonosis. Clinical signs of leptospirosis in dogs relate to development of renal disease, hepatic disease, uveitis, and pulmonary hemorrhage. Disease may follow periods of high rainfall, and can occur in dogs roaming in proximity to water sources, farm animals, or wildlife, or dogs residing in suburban environments. Diagnosis is based on acute and convalescent phase antibody titers by the microscopic agglutination test (MAT), with or without use of polymerase chain reaction assays. There is considerable interlaboratory variation in MAT results, and the MAT does not accurately predict the infecting serogroup. The recommended treatment for optimal clearance of the organism from renal tubules is doxycycline, 5 mg/kg PO q12h, for 14 days. Annual vaccination can prevent leptospirosis caused by serovars included in the vaccine and is recommended for dogs at risk of infection.
