Antibody and cytokine responses in kittens during the development of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP)

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 1998
Two recombinant FIPV spike proteins were assessed for their immunogenic properties in 8-week-old kittens, which were then challenged intranasally with FIPV 79-1146. Humoral responses were assessed by ELISA and serum neutralisation test. Changes in PBMC cytokine mRNA levels were detected by a reverse transcription, semiquantitative polymerase chain ...
