Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious diseases. [PDF]
, 2010 Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious agents may result from disruption of normal host barriers or dysregulation of cellular immunity, the latter serving to promote survival of the infectious agent through immune evasion.

Disease potential of feline leukemia virus (FeLV) collected from Iberian lynxes (Lynx pardinus): low pathogenicity in experimentally infected specified pathogen-free domestic cats [PDF]
, 2010 The Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) is considered the most endangered felid species in the world, less than 250 animals left. The narrow genetic basis may contribute to render this species particularly susceptible to infectious diseases.

Possible immunoenhancement of persistent viremia by feline leukemia virus envelope glycoprotein vaccines in challenge-exposure situations where whole inactivated virus vaccines were protective. [PDF]
, 1986 Kittens immunized with purified native FeLV-gp70 or -gp85 envelope proteins developed ELISA, but not virus neutralizing, antibodies in their serum to both whole FeLV and FeLV-gp70.

Bvr-1, a Restriction Locus of a Type C RNA Virus in the Feline Cellular Genome: Pleiotropic Restriction of Endogenous BALB Virus in Cat x Mouse Somatic Cell Hybrids [PDF]
, 1978 Bvr-1 is a dominant X-linked feline gene which restricts the replication of B-tropic murineleukemia virus (B-MuLV) in somatic cell hybrids between murine BALB/c-RAG cells and FL-74 feline cells.
