Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis is a public health problem in many
rural parts of 17 out of 30 provinces of Iran. In the present study
P. papatasi salivary gland antigens (SGAs) and evaluation of the
immune response generated against the SGAs in R. opimus and its
role in correlation with L. major infection were investigated.
Salivary gland lysate profile of wild caught and lab bred (F1) P.
papatasi and also of different geographical populations did not
show prominent differences. Positive Ab response of great gerbils
against SGA is correlated with Leishmania infection and the season.
Leishmania major, L. gerbilli and L. turanica circulate in the
population of R. opimus in central part of Iran. Leishmania major
infection usually accompanied by L. turanica in naturally infected
gerbils. Study on the anti SGA in gerbil population can be
considered in epidemiological studies of the disease.
