Perspectives on FIV vaccine development

Vaccine, 1997
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), discovered a decade ago, is the causative agent of feline immunodeficiency syndrome (FAIDS), a chronically degenerative, fatal disease in domestic cats. Our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of FIV has improved but the development of an effective therapy and prophylaxis has been slow, reflecting the remarkable

Follow-Up Infarct Volume Prediction by CTP-Based Hypoperfusion Index, and the Discrepancy between Small Follow-Up Infarct Volume and Poor Functional Outcome—A Multicenter Study

Diagnostics, 2023
(1) Background: Follow-up infarct volume (FIV) may have implications for prognostication in acute ischemic stroke patients. Factors predicting the discrepancy between FIV and 90-day outcomes are poorly understood.

Genomic organization, sequence divergence, and recombination of feline immunodeficiency virus from lions in the wild

BMC Genomics, 2008
Background Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) naturally infects multiple species of cat and is related to human immunodeficiency virus in humans. FIV infection causes AIDS-like disease and mortality in the domestic cat (Felis catus) and serves as a ...

Serum Samples from Co-Infected and Domestic Cat Field Isolates Nonspecifically Bind FIV and Other Antigens in Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays

Pathogens, 2021
We evaluated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) specificity for measuring seroantibody responses to two types of retroviral infections in domestic cats: feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline foamy virus (FFV).

Pathogenicity and rapid growth kinetics of feline immunodeficiency virus are linked to 3' elements. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Chimeric viruses constructed between a highly pathogenic Feline Immunodeficiency Virus isolate (FIV-C36) and a less pathogenic but neurotropic strain (FIV-PPR) have been used to map viral genetic determinants of in vivo pathogenicity.

Management of Suspected Cases of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Infection in Eurasian Lynx (Lynx lynx) During an International Translocation Program

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) population in Switzerland serves as a source for reintroductions in neighboring countries. In 2016–2017, three lynx from the same geographical area were found seropositive for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) in the ...

Immunopathologic Effects of Prednisolone and Cyclosporine A on Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Replication and Persistence

Viruses, 2019
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) induces opportunistic disease in chronically infected cats, and both prednisolone and cyclosporine A (CsA) are clinically used to treat complications such as lymphoma and stomatitis.

Abstract 268: Validation of an automated method to assess 24‐hour infarct volume in stroke patients

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2023
Introduction In stroke patients, accurate infarct volume assessment at 24 hours typically requires manual segmentation of lesions that often are not well defined.
