Feline Leukemia Virus Testing

New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1981
Abstract Sir, — Cat owners, cat breeders and veterinarians are now well aware that feline leukaemia virus (Felv) is a cause of serious disease in cats and also that Felv is involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases other than lymphosarcoma(8).

Feline Leukemia Virus and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2000
Ophthalmic manifestations of FeLV or FIV infection can occur in all ocular tissues and may be manifestations of direct viral effects or secondary to viral-related malignant transformation. Additionally, the manifestations of common feline ophthalmic pathogens may be more severe and poorly responsive to therapy because of the immunosuppressive effects ...

Infections of feline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2002
Feline retrovirus infections have been extensively studied for more than 30 years as an animal model for the persistent infections and pathogenesis caused by retroviruses in general. Two retroviruses, feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), have been recognized as causative agents of a variety of diseases including ...

What’s New in Feline Leukemia Virus Infection

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2020
Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) is a retrovirus with global impact on the health of domestic cats that causes tumors (mainly lymphoma), bone marrow disorders, and immunosuppression. The importance of FeLV is underestimated due to complacency associated with previous decline in prevalence.

AKT capture by feline leukemia virus

Archives of Virology, 2016
Oncogene-containing retroviruses are generated by recombination events between viral and cellular sequences, a phenomenon called "oncogene capture". The captured cellular genes, referred to as "v-onc" genes, then acquire new oncogenic properties. We report a novel feline leukemia virus (FeLV), designated "FeLV-AKT", that has captured feline c-AKT1 in ...

Study of feline leukemia virus immunity

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1991
Summary Fifteen specific-pathogen-free cats were experimentally infected with FeLV; 8 cats recovered after transient or nondetectable viremia, and 7 cats became persistently viremic. Four additional cats served as noninfected controls. Antibodies to whole FeLV (elisa and immunoblot [western] analysis), antibodies to fixed FeLV-infected cells, and virus-

Ultrastructural studies of feline leukemia virus

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1970
Envelope spikes and intermediate membranes were found in viral particles of experimental and spontaneous cases of lymphosarcoma in the cat. The structures are described and their function as receptors postulated.

Feline leukemia virus infection and diseases

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1991
Summary Feline leukemia virus is a naturally occurring, contagiously transmitted and oncogenic immunosuppressive retrovirus of cats. The effects of FeLV are paradoxical, causing cytoproliferative and cytosuppressive disease (eg, lymphoma and myeloproliferative disorders vs immunodeficiency and myelosuppressive disorders).
