Abstract

Kusta, penyakit menular kronis yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium leprae, masih menimbulkan masalah kesehatan dan menjadi endemis di beberapa negara. Jumlah kasus kusta baru masih dilaporkan di negara endemis secara konstan. Upaya terapi pada pasien kusta dilakukan dengan tujuan menurunkan tingkat penularan dan kecacatan penderita kusta. Terapi kusta dengan penggunaan regimen multidrug (MDT) terbukti mampu menurunkan jumlah kasus kusta namun belum dapat menekan laju pertumbuhan kasus kusta baru. Jumlah kasus kusta baru yang bersifat konstan di area endemis menunjukkan terdapat infeksi komunitas dan ketidakmampuan MDT sebagai strategi tunggal untuk menyelesaikan pengobatan dan menghentikan penularan kusta. Penularan penyakit kusta diketahui bersifat multifaktorial yang melibatkan: faktor mikroba, faktor pejamu, dan faktor lingkungan. Faktor-faktor tersebut diduga dapat menyebabkan disregulasi imunitas dan meningkatkan risiko infeksi kusta pada penduduk yang tinggal di daerah endemis. Pemahaman mengenai disregulasi imunitas diperlukan untuk menyelesaikan pengobatan dan pemberantasan 
kusta.
