OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to screen new antigens for syphilis serodiagnosis.
METHODS: First, we determined whether the Treponema pallidum proteins Tp0971, Tp0768 and Tp0462 were infection phase-dependent antigens by observing serum reactivity differences in New Zealand rabbits infected with activated or inactivated T. pallidum. A non-infection phase-dependent antigen, the Tp92 membrane protein, was used as the negative control. Next, Tp0971-, Tp0768- and Tp0462-based ELISA was performed on 2138 human serum samples and compared with the T. pallidum passive particle agglutination assay (TPPA) and LiZhu™ Tp-ELISA. In addition, another 60 paired serum samples from patients at follow-up were analysed to evaluate the relationships between titre changes and differences in the A450 nm values of the Tp0971, Tp0768, Tp0462 and Tp92 antibodies measured by ELISA.
RESULTS: Compared with Tp92 (negative control), Tp0971, Tp0768 and Tp0462 were determined to be infection phase-dependent antigens. Compared with those of the TPPA, the sensitivities of Tp0971-, Tp0768- and Tp0462-based ELISA were 96.4%, 96.9% and 93.0%, respectively, and the specificities were 97.7%, 95.4% and 98.9%, respectively, resulting in consistencies of 97.1%, 96.2% and 95.9%, respectively. Compared with those of the LiZhu™ Tp-ELISA, the consistencies of Tp0971-, Tp0768- and Tp0462-based ELISA were 95.1%, 94.2% and 94.0%, respectively, with kappa values of 0.902, 0.884 and 0.880, respectively. Tp0971, Tp0768 and Tp0462 demonstrated high sensitivities and specificities, as well as high conformity to the TPPA and LiZhu™ Tp-ELISA. Moreover, a significantly positive Spearman rank correlation coefficient (0.82,*P < 0.05) was found between the difference in the A450 nm values of the Tp0971 antibody and the RPR titre change.
CONCLUSION: The infection phase-dependent antigens Tp0971, Tp0768 and Tp0462 are promising for syphilis diagnosis, and Tp0971 may be utilized to monitor curative effects during syphilis treatment.
