Pathogenesis of feline enteric coronavirus infection [PDF]
Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2008 Fifty-one specific pathogen-free (SPF) cats 10 weeks to 13 years of age were infected with a cat-to-cat fecal–oral passed strain of feline enteric coronavirus (FECV). Clinical signs ranged from unapparent to a mild and self-limiting diarrhea. Twenty-nine of these cats were FECV naïve before infection and followed sequentially for fecal virus shedding ...

Veterinary Microbiology, 1991 This review presents some current thoughts regarding the epizootiology of the feline coronaviruses; feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) and feline coronavirus (FECV) with primary emphasis on the pathogenesis of these viruses in nature. Although the mechanism(s) whereby FIPV causes disease are still incompletely understood, there have been ...

Pathogenic characteristics of persistent feline enteric coronavirus infection in cats [PDF]
Veterinary Research, 2010 Feline coronaviruses (FCoV) comprise two biotypes: feline enteric coronaviruses (FECV) and feline infectious peritonitis viruses (FIPV). FECV is associated with asymptomatic persistent enteric infections, while FIPV causes feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), a usually fatal systemic disease in domestic cats and some wild Felidae. FIPV arises from FECV

Risk factors for feline infectious peritonitis among cats in multiple-cat environments with endemic feline enteric coronavirus [PDF]
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1997 Objective— To determine what risk factors, other than genetic predisposition, contribute to the incidence of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) in private breeding catteries and animal shelters. Design— Cats from 7 catteries and a shelter were observed monthly for 1 year.

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996 Two groups of cats were experimentally infected orally with the cat-passaged RM strain of feline enteric coronavirus (FECV-RM). One group of cats (n = 19) had been chronically infected with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) for over 6 years, while a second control group (n = 20) consisted of FIV-naive siblings.

Common virus infections in cats, before and after being placed in shelters, with emphasis on feline enteric coronavirus [PDF]
Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2004 The purpose of this study was to determine the origin and subsequent spread of feline calicivirus (FCV), feline herpesvirus (FHV), and feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) in cats relinquished to shelters. FCV was isolated from the oral fauces of 11% of healthy cats upon entry, and isolation rates were highest for kittens (33%). FHV shedding was very low

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1995 Kittens inoculated orally with 10(2) PFU of feline enteric coronavirus developed no antibody to the virus despite the repeated challenges. However, they developed antibody for a long period with 5 x 10(3)-1.6 x 10(5) (mean 3 x 10(4)) and with 2.5 x 10(3)-2 x 10(4) (mean 6 x 10(3)) immunoperoxidase antibody titer when they were challenged with 10(5) and

Mucosal and systemic immune correlates of protection against feline enteric coronavirus infection
, 2019 Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a disease with high mortality that results from a mutation in the genome of the relatively harmless and ubiquitous feline coronavirus (FCoV) (Licitra, Millet et al. 2013). FIP causes a deadly effusive and/or granulomatous disease in cats (Kipar, May et al. 2005). Because FIP is always fatal, our aim is to aid with

Feline Infectious Peritonitis: A Challenging Diagnostic and Therapeutic Labyrinth [PDF]
AnimalsFeline coronaviruses (FCoVs) are ubiquitous pathogens, exhibiting high prevalence across feline populations worldwide. Although the virulent mutated biotype feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) is observed in only a small percentage of cats, it ...

Cross-species transmission alert: a novel canine-raccoon dog coronavirus infecting an Amur Tiger in China [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyCanine coronavirus (CCoV) is an important enteric alphacoronavirus primarily affecting canids. Here, we detected canine coronavirus RNA in a captive 9-year-old Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) in China.
