dc.description.abstract | Whipple’s disease caused by Tropheryma whipplei is difficult to diagnose because of a broad spectrum of manifestations and non-specific clinical signs. In the current global era, the incidence of duodenal infection/inflammation caused by T. whipplei in Korea may has been underestimated. Here we estimated the prevalence of T. whipplei in duodenal biopsy tissues of Koreans using real-time PCRs (RT-PCRs). A total of 252 duodenal biopsy tissues were collected from Korean patients who underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy and duodenal biopsy. DNA extracted from the duodenal biopsy tissues was analyzed using three RT-PCRs targeting T. whipplei-specific regions of the 16S–23S rRNA intergenic spacer, hsp65, and Dig15 in parallel. In the samples positive in RT-PCRs, direct sequencing was performed for each RT-PCR target. The prevalence of T. whipplei was estimated based on the RT-PCR and sequencing results. Among the analyzed samples, T. whipplei was not detected. The prevalence of T. whipplei in duodenal biopsy tissues of Koreans was estimated to be less than 0.4%. This is the first study to attempt to detect T. whipplei in duodenal biopsy tissues of Koreans and estimate its prevalence. Our findings infer that while T. whipplei carriers exist in Korea, the incidence of duodenal infection/inflammation caused by T. whipplei is extremely rare. © 2024, The Author(s). | - |
