Looking for LGV in San Francisco using Real-Time PCR San Francisco Department Of Public Health

Lymphogranuloma Venereum (LGV) Serovar “L” Chlamydia Tropism for lymph nodes; replicates in mononuclear phagocytes Lymphadenitis, abscesses, buboes, proctocolitis Can result in serious systemic infection, death

L Serovar : a 36 base-pair deletion of the pmpH gene (table shown from Stothard et.al. 2003)

Real-Time PCR for LGV (using the method of Morre et.al with slight modifications for our equipment and specimen collection ) Validation: Real-Time PCR compared to DNA-sequencing: Tested: Clinical specimens: -18 L-serovar -10 Non-L All detectable by PCR; (100%se / 100%sp) All confirmed by Sequencing Sensitivity of 0.01 Inclusion-forming units

Process Specimen Taken At Clinic Tested For CT By SDA or TMA Nucleic Acid Extraction / DNA purification Real-Time PCR (method of Morre et al (2005) Rectal swab Purified DNA

Technical notes MagNA Pure, Automated nucleic acid extraction -necessary even for specimens already collected in lysis buffer for TMA -”DNA Kit III (Bacteria and Fungi)” performed better than “Total Nucleic Acid Kit” LightCycler Real-Time instrument; Time to results for 32 specimens: 5-6 hours

Overall 1569 rectal-positive Chlamydia specimens tested ( ) 44 (2.8%) LGV + Type L2b, by sequencing (omp1 gene) (only sequenced 10 of them) These 1569 were found through routine screening for CT/GC Not selected on basis of symptomology Very briefly used on specimens suspected, by clinician to be LGV+ 17 specimens 4 (23.5%) LGV+

Performance issues Prevalence when SDA was Chlamydia screening test: 3.0% Prevalence when TMA was Chlamydia screening test: 2.7% Issues: (1) TMA is more sensitive than PCR; there are probably specimens that are slipping through the cracks. (TMA+ LGV pcr-negative that really were LGV) (2) There is no internal control or quantitation standard

What does all this mean ? Not much, maybe: Schacter & Moncada, 2005, STD Vol 32., No. 6: -LGV has probably long been here -Found several cases of LGV in SF in 1981 (also were L2b) -not associated with anything more severe than proctitis

What now ? Scaling back since early 2007 Are there treatment questions to be answered ? How does it get from rectum to rectum ?

Looking for Non-Rectal LGV Genital Lesions 191 lesions: -negative for HSV -negative for Syph. Zero positive for LGV Urine 244 Chlamydia- positive urines Zero positive for LGV
