Introduction
The leptospirosis is caused by pathogenic species bacterias of generum Leptospira and is a emerging zoonotic disease worldwide [1] [2].
Estima-se que 1 milhão de pessoas se infectam com leptospira por ano e 60.000 morrem da doença no mundo (Costa et al., 2015; revisado por Picardeau, 2017). A incidência é maior nos países tropicais, pois o clima e a umidade favorecem a proliferação desta bactéria. In 5–15% of leptospirosis cases, the clinical symptoms may progress to a severe disease condition, which can cause jaundice, renal failure, meningitis, hypotension, bleeding, multiple organ failure, pulmonary hemorrhages and, in some cases, death [21,22]. The ability of some Leptospira species to grow in different conditions, such as in soil, water, and in different mammalian organs and the bloodstream, suggests that the bacteria should possess different signaling pathways to sense the external environment in order to appropriately modify bacterial biochemistry, physiology, and behavior. Therefore, we can expect that c-di-GMP will have an important role in the Leptospira life cycle. However, to date, almost nothing is known about c-di-GMP signaling in Leptospira.
