Leprosy remains an important health problem worldwide. The disease is caused by a chronic granulomatous infection of the skin and peripheral nerves with Mycobacterium leprae. The clinical range from tuberculoid to lepromatous leprosy is a result of variation in the cellular immune response to the mycobacterium.

The World Health Organization field leprosy classification is based on the number of skin lesions: single-lesion leprosy (1 lesion), paucibacillary leprosy (2-5 skin lesions), and multibacillary leprosy (more than 5 skin lesions). Worldwide, about 720,000 new cases of leprosy are reported each year, and about 2 million people have leprosy-related ...

Mast cells in leprosy and leprosy reaction
International Journal of Dermatology, 2000AbstractBackground Mast cells can be visualized in routine, acid‐fast‐staining, paraffin tissue section as metachromatic staining cells, and can be activated to release inflammatory mediators which play a role in the cell‐mediated immune response. Methods Skin biopsy tissues were taken from the most active skin lesion of each leprosy patient at the ...

The Immunology of Leprosy: Speculations on the Leprosy Spectrum
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1981Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. The disease presents a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, ranging from lepromatous to tuberculoid leprosy; each form may be punctuated by episodes of acute exacerbation, called reactional states.
