Prevalence of feline immunodeficiency virus and feline leukaemia virus in domestic cats in Hungary [PDF]
Objectives Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) are retroviruses affecting cats worldwide. The objectives of the study were to estimate the prevalence of these retroviruses in domestic cats in Hungary and to characterise ...

Enhancement after feline immunodeficiency virus vaccination [PDF]
Cats were vaccinated with one of the three preparations: purified feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) incorporated into immune stimulating complexes (ISCOMs), recombinant FIV p24 ISCOMs, or a fixed, inactivated cell vaccine in quil A. Cats inoculated with the FIV ISCOMs or the recombinant p24 ISCOMs developed high titres of antibodies against the core ...

Feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]
[Extract] There are five subtypes (synonym: clades) of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), named A-E. Different subtypes predominate in different parts of the world but more than one subtype may be found in a particular country. There is no known practical, clinical value in determining the subtype infecting a particular feline patient.

Feline immunodeficiency virus latency [PDF]
Despite highly effective anti-retroviral therapy, HIV is thought to persist in patients within long-lived cellular reservoirs in the form of a transcriptionally inactive (latent) integrated provirus. Lentiviral latency has therefore come to the forefront of the discussion on the possibility of a cure for HIV infection in humans.

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Applications of the FIV Model to Study HIV Pathogenesis
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a naturally-occurring retrovirus that infects domestic and non-domestic feline species, producing progressive immune depletion that results in an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Cell Entry [PDF]
ABSTRACT The process of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) cell entry was examined using assays for virus replication intermediates. FIV subtype B was found to utilize the chemokine receptor CXCR4, but not CCR5, as a cellular receptor. Zidovudine blocked formation of late viral replication products most effectively, including circular DNA ...
