Development and pilot application of a point-of-need molecular xenomonitoring protocol for tsetse (Glossina sp:) in a low-resource setting.
Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are the primary vectors of trypanosomes causing human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) and animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT). Disease surveillance can be carried out by detecting Trypanosoma DNA in tsetse, also known as molecular xenomonitoring. Whilst molecular methods can increase the efficiency and sensitivity of pathogen detection, trained staff and a well-equipped laboratory are required. In many cases, DNA extraction and screening is outsourced to a central laboratory in a major city either in-country or abroad, far removed from original tsetse collection sites. This increases results turnaround time, incurs transportation costs, and can lead to sample loss or damage. We set out to develop, optimise and trial methods for tsetse xenomonitoring in a low-resource point-of-need setting. A low-cost protocol was developed consisting of rapid alkali-based DNA extraction and Trypanosoma detection qPCR assays using air-dryable reagent mixes. A minimally-equipped laboratory was established in a field station in Arua, Uganda. Following a training workshop, three entomology technicians carried out screening on 286 tsetse collected over a nine-week study period. The technicians consistently extracted high quality DNA (98% success rate) and were able to successfully detect T. brucei sensu lato in 4.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) [2.23 - 7.37]), T. congolense in 3.6% (95% CI [1.73 - 6.47]) and T. vivax in 3.9% (95% CI [1.98 - 6.92]) of total tsetse, representing a total Trypanosoma sp detection prevalence of 10.7% (95% CI [9.6 - 11.8]). This study demonstrated that sensitive molecular xenomonitoring of HAT and AAT pathogens can be carried out without the need for cold-chain storage or high-powered equipment. Further improvements to the system might be achieved by modifying the DNA extraction protocol to enable high-throughput or pooled samples, increasing the sensitivity of the T. b. gambiense DNA detection assay and exploring more sustainable power sources.
External quality assessment for yaws elimination in low- and middle-income countries using plasmid-based proficiency test items.
We aimed to establish an external quality assessment (EQA) programme for the yaws eradication campaign that would meet the needs of reference and district-level laboratories in low- and middle-income countries. We designed proficiency testing items (PTIs) using a plasmid containing gene target sequences for Treponema pallidum (TP) and Haemophilus ducreyi (HD). The storage stability of the plasmids under different environmental conditions was then tested. A proficiency testing panel of seven swabs loaded with different concentrations of plasmids in different combinations, as well as human HEK293 cells to simulate the sample background, was prepared and sent to participating reference (RL) and district (DL) laboratories in Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire and Cameroon followed by three rounds of blinded proficiency testing. We tested quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) performance of reference laboratories and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) performance of district laboratories and retested 20% of human field samples at the PTI provider's laboratory to further assess qPCR quality. PTIs proved to be stable in dry conditions with no significant loss of copy number. Participating laboratories achieved qPCR results with a concordance of 95.0-100.0% (97.7% ± 5.2% (mean±standard deviation ((SD)) with the provider and a concordance of 76.0-100.0% (TP: 90.3 ± 13.7% and HD: 78.5 ± 7.5% (mean±SD)) for LAMP results, with inconsistencies, particularly in the detection of low HD plasmid DNA levels combined with high TP plasmid copies. Retesting of field samples resulted in 100% correct TP and HD sample identification by the African reference laboratories. We have developed a functional plasmid-based EQA programme specifically designed to meet the needs of resource-poor settings in the tropics. The programme is suitable as a blueprint for other disease programmes.
Human Leukocyte Antigen-G is enriched in presence of trypanosome in the dermis of individuals exposed to gambiense Human African Trypanosomiasis in Guinea and Côte d'Ivoire.
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is an immunomodulatory molecule known to play a crucial role in immune tolerance and regulation. In the context of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), higher soluble HLA-G levels were detected in the plasma of confirmed cases, representing a serological marker of T. b. gambiense infection. As trypanosomes also invade extravascular tissues, especially the skin, this study explored the potential role of HLA-G in the dermal immune response during T. b. gambiense infection. Blood and skin samples from 50 seronegative individuals, 45 seropositive suspects and 36 confirmed HAT cases, collected between 2018 and 2022 in endemic foci of Guinea and Côte d'Ivoire, were analyzed. Plasmatic and dermal levels of HLA-G proteins were quantified by ELISA and immuno-histochemistry, respectively, and compared to the trypanosome detection results in the same samples. The implication of soluble HLA-G plasma level as a biomarker of T. b. gambiense infection was confirmed. In the dermis, HLA-G isoforms were expressed either with a granular distribution or with in diffuse halos. Granular patterns of dermal HLA-G were directly associated with the presence of trypanosomes in the dermis. The presence of diffuse halos was correlated to higher sHLA-G levels in the plasma. In total, this study provides the first evidence of the involvement of HLA-G in the extravascular immune response against parasites, especially in the skin. It shows that HLA-G distribution in the extravascular compartment also represents a biomarker of trypanosome infection.
Modulation of succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid CoA transferase activity by a single amino acid residue in acetate:succinate CoA transferase from Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness.
Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that remain a global health challenge due to the limited efficacy, safety, and durability of current treatments. Acetate: succinate CoA transferase (ASCT), together with succinyl-CoA synthase (SCS), forms the ASCT/SCS cycle that fuels ATP production and generates acetate, a central metabolic intermediate essential for mitochondrial pathways in these parasites. Although Trypanosoma brucei ASCT (TbASCT) shares 52% amino acid identity with mammalian succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid CoA transferase (mSCOT), the latter catalyzes a rate-limiting step of ketone body catabolism. Because ASCT and SCOT perform distinct reactions, understanding their mechanistic divergence is crucial for identifying parasite-specific vulnerabilities and advancing selective drug discovery. Here, we report crystal structures of TbASCT bound to all substrates and products, revealing the molecular basis of substrate recognition and catalysis. In solution, TbASCT and mSCOT are homotetrameric and homodimeric, respectively. Despite similar monomer fold, the substrate-binding sites and catalytic mechanisms by which these two enzymes mediate different reactions remain unknown. Site-directed mutagenesis demonstrated that residues Arg162, Leu377, and Asp62 govern tetramer assembly, CoA binding, and acquisition of SCOT activity, respectively. Mutation of Leu377 abolished ASCT activity, while Arg162 mutant produced ASCT-active dimers with a 10-fold increase in SCOT/ASCT activity ratio. Notably, Asp62 mutants exhibited more than 4000-fold increase in this ratio, representing gain-of-function SCOT activity, a reaction absent in TbASCT. These mechanistic insights define the structural determinants that separate ASCT from SCOT function and illuminate opportunities to selectively inhibit ASCT without disrupting host SCOT, thereby informing the development of trypanosomatid-targeted therapeutics.
