Ionophore Antibiotics Inhibit Type II Feline Coronavirus Proliferation In Vitro

Viruses, 2022
Feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) infect cats worldwide and cause severe systemic diseases, such as feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). FIP has a high mortality rate, and drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration have been ineffective for the ...

Hypothesis of emergence of type II FCoV.

, 2014
Some cats persistently infected with type I FCoV are superinfected with type II CCoV which is excreted from dogs. Inside the cat body, type II FCoV emerges by homologous recombination and induces severe clinical disease, FIP.

Quasispecies composition and phylogenetic analysis of feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) in naturally infected cats

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2003
Quasispecies composition and tissue distribution of feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) were studied in naturally infected cats. The genomic complexity of FCoVs was investigated using single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of N and ORF7b amplicons, and the evolutionary process was investigated by sequence-based phylogenetic analysis.

Antiviral activity of Vigna radiata extract against feline coronavirus in vitro

Veterinary Quarterly
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a fatal illness caused by a mutated feline coronavirus (FCoV). This disease is characterized by its complexity, resulting from systemic infection, antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), and challenges in accessing ...

Evaluation of Association between Blood Phenotypes A, B and AB and Feline Coronavirus Infection in Cats

Pathogens, 2022
Cats are susceptible to feline coronavirus (FCoV), a highly contagious virus with fecal–oral transmission. In people, susceptibility to coronavirus infection, such as SARS-CoV infection, has been associated with the ABO blood group, with individuals with

Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

Prevalence of natural feline coronavirus infection in domestic cats in Fujian, China

Virology Journal
Only few studies have investigated the prevalence of feline coronavirus (FCoV) infection in domestic cats in Fujian, China. This is the first study to report the prevalence rate of FCoV infection in domestic cats in Fujian, China, and to analyse the ...

Successful Management of Septic Splenitis in an Abyssinian Cat

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
A 3.5‐year‐old female neutered Abyssinian with pyrexia of unknown origin and splenomegaly was diagnosed with septic splenitis. Complete resolution of clinical signs followed splenectomy and antibiotic treatment with pradofloxacin. Septic splenitis, although uncommon, should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with splenomegaly and ...

In Silico Assessment for Risk of Possible Human Transmission of FCoV‐23

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
Since the pandemic in 2019, coronaviruses (CoVs) have been a great concern for public health burden. The fact that CoVs can infect all animals including domestic ones and livestock points to a future pandemic even though interaction between human and wildlife animals is restricted. Moreover, interspecies transmission abilities of CoVs by mutations make
