Detecção de imunoglobulinas IgG, IgM e IgA anti-Toxoplasma gondii no soro, líquor e saliva de pacientes com síndrome da imunodeficiência adquirida e neurotoxoplasmose Detection of anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG, IgM and IgA immunoglobulins in the serum, cerebrospinal fluid and saliva of patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and neurotoxoplasmosis

Estudamos 55 pacientes com sindrome da imunodeficiência adquirida (SIDA) e neurotoxoplasmose (grupo 1); 37 pacientes com SIDA e comprometimento neurológico por outra etiologia (grupo 2) e 18 indivíduos anti-HIV negativos com manifestações neurológicas (grupo 3), pesquisando IgG, IgA e IgM anti-Toxop...

description Estudamos 55 pacientes com sindrome da imunodeficiência adquirida (SIDA) e neurotoxoplasmose (grupo 1); 37 pacientes com SIDA e comprometimento neurológico por outra etiologia (grupo 2) e 18 indivíduos anti-HIV negativos com manifestações neurológicas (grupo 3), pesquisando IgG, IgA e IgM anti-Toxoplasma gondii, no soro, líquor e saliva, utilizando teste ELISA, para fins diagnósticos. O valor preditivo negativo do teste para o encontro de IgG no soro foi 100% e no líquor, 92,4%. Não houve diferença entre os três grupos quanto aos anticorpos IgA neste material. Para IgA, no líquor, o teste alcançou 72,7% de especificidade (p<0,05). Na saliva, apenas o encontro de IgG mostrou correlação com o diagnóstico de neurotoxoplasmose. Enfatizamos que a ausência de anticorpos IgG anti-T. gondii no soro e líquor depõe fortemente contra o diagnóstico de neurotoxoplasmose e que imunoglobulinas IgA específicas no líquor e IgG na saliva podem representar dois marcadores auxiliares para o diagnóstico diferencial da encefalite toxoplásmica na SIDA.<br>We studied 55 patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and neurotoxoplasmosis (group 1), 37 patients with AIDS and neurological involvement due to another etiology (group 2) and 18 anti-HIV-negative individuals with neurological manifestations, by searching for anti-T. gondii IgG, IgA and IgM immunoglobulins in serum, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)and saliva, using ELISA. The negative predictive value of the test for IgG in serum was 100% and in CSF, 92.4%. There was no difference among the three groups studied regarding IgA in serum. For IgA, in CSF the test reached 72.7% specificity (p<0.05). In saliva, only the detection of IgG was found to be correlated with a diagnosis of neurotoxoplasmosis. We emphasize that the absence of anti-T. gondii IgG antibodies in serum and CSF strongly indicates the absence of a diagnosis of neurotoxoplasmosis and that specific IgA immunoglobulins in CSF and IgG in saliva may represent two auxiliary markers for the differential diagnosis of toxoplasmic encephalitis in AIDS.
