Introduction Early diagnosis of Leprosy is a big challenge in endemic countries. At the pres
ent, no single assay can predict the persons who have infected M. Leprae (indicated by PGL-1 positive in sera) may development leprosy or what time they may development leprosy.
KaiYuan city, in Honghe Profecture, Yunnan Province has been a higher lepro
sy-endemic area in China. During 1996-2006, the twenty cases were newly detected in the 618 villagers from the three villages, Kaiyuan. Moreover, 2002-2006,the average detective rate is as high as 6.5/100000 in the city. Therefore, the three villages were selected as the field site for early diagnosis.
The multiple assays are consist of ELISA, PCR and T cell assays, as well as Acid-Fast staining, histopathology. Those assays have been applied to the following up or monitoring in the villagers and household contacts since 2007. The aim of the study is to demonstrate whether the assays may be useful for early detection of leprosy.

The surveillance program in the villagers and HHCs
New and treated Patients, HHCs and villagers in 3 endemic villages
were surveyed by clinical examination and ELISA (ND-O-BSA IgM
and LID-1 IgG).
If suspected cases are found, the PCR would be used for diagnosis
The three times or more following –up have been conducted since
2007.

Preliminary summary on T cell assay based on the 21 peptides
Although we succeeded in the diagnosis one case and no cross rea
ction with TB and normal groups. However, the results 0f all 21 pepti
des for both PBMC or whole blood assay on MB:24, PB:6 and HH
C:17 showed no peptide may induce IFN-γ in significant difference
s between the petients and control. In addition, the experimental re
peatability is not good.
The design or selection of the peptides and proteins require to furth
er study.

Future Plans
Further identify M.leprae specific peptides and protein antigens by the
whole blood assay in progress at the field of the endemic areas.
Follow-up of HHCs (PGL-I \LID-1 Ab/ responding to 0.2 in Honghe P
rofecture.Whether the surveillace is worth to apply to the field site
or not, the cost-effect should be furher considered.
