Epigenetic transmission of feline infectious peritonitis

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1978
Feline Infectious Peritonitis (F.I.P.) was diagnosed in the kittens of two successive litters born to a female presumed also infected. At the same time, the two fathers and the other subjects of the cattery remained asymptomatic of F.I.P. The clinical observations, supported by electrophoretic data, suggest the possibility of a direct transmission of ...

Treatment of cats with feline infectious peritonitis

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2008
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) infection resulting in clinical signs is invariably fatal despite clinical intervention. As FIP is an immune-mediated disease, treatment is mainly aimed at controlling the immune response triggered by the infection with the feline coronavirus (FCoV). Immune suppressive drugs such as prednisone or cyclophosphamide may

Feline infectious peritonitis: Present knowledge

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1978
The purpose of this paper is to take stock of the knowledge gained over the last few years on Feline Infectious Peritonitis in a synthetic way. Apart from the bibliographical study regarding the works of numerous authors, we state our results concerning the study of the experimental reproduction of the disease.

Intrahost Diversity of Feline Coronavirus: A Consensus between the Circulating Virulent/Avirulent Strains and the Internal Mutation Hypotheses?

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
To evaluate the most controversial issue concerning current feline coronavirus (FCoV) virology, the coexisting hypotheses of the intrahost and interhost origins of feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) in regard to the pathogenesis of feline ...

The ORF1ab of Feline Coronavirus Plays a Critical Role in Regulating the Innate Immune Response

Viruses
Feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) are divided into two groups: feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) and feline enteric coronavirus (FECV). FIPV is responsible for the severe disease known as feline infectious peritonitis, while FECV typically causes ...

Therapeutic and lesional aspects of feline infectious peritonitis [PDF]

Medicamentul Veterinar, 2013
The prevalence of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) can not be assessed on the basis of serological surveys because positive serological reagents rate does not correlate with disease rates. In units with more cats and numerous movements (input - output)
