The emerging landscape of feline coronavirus type II in Asia: A review of molecular diversity and diagnostic challenges [PDF]
BIO Web of ConferencesFeline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a fatal systemic disease of cats caused by feline coronavirus (FCoV). FCoV is classified into two biotypes: feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) and feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV).

Mutation in Spike Protein Cleavage Site and Pathogenesis of Feline Coronavirus
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 Feline coronaviruses (FCoV) exist as 2 biotypes: feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) and feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). FECV causes subclinical infections; FIPV causes feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), a systemic and fatal disease.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2000 Feline infectious peritonitis is a noncurable viral disease affecting cats worldwide. Recent evidence suggests that the FIPV has evolved as a deletion mutation of FECV. Immune complex deposition and vasculitis with pyogranulomatous lesions are the hallmark of FIP.

Microorganisms, 2021 Ninety-five effusion samples were collected from cats with suspected feline infectious peritonitis in northern Taiwan; these samples showed a 47.4% (45/95) feline coronavirus (FCoV) positivity rate on immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR.

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021 Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a life-threatening infectious disease of cats caused by virulent feline coronavirus (FIP virus: FIPV). For the treatment of FIP, several effective antivirals were recently reported, but many of these are not ...

Feline Infectious Peritonitis: A Worldwide Serosurvey
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1979 SUMMARY Feline sera from 13 countries were assayed for coronavirus antibody, using a heterologous indirect immunofluorescence test. Significantly higher percentages of antibody carriers were obtained during testing randomly collected sera from mature males (> 1 year old) than in testing females of the same age.

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory tetraparesis or tetraplegia in cats may constitute a diagnostic challenge for general practitioners. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate if clinical variables from signalment, history, clinical examination and basic ancillary tests are associated with underlying diagnoses in cats with non‐ambulatory tetraparesis ...

BMC Veterinary Research, 2019 Background Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is considered highly fatal in its naturally occurring form, although up to 36% of cats resist disease after experimental infection, suggesting that cats in nature may also resist development of FIP in the ...
