Genetic diversity of Brazilian isolates of feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We isolated Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) from three adult domestic cats, originating from two open shelters in Brazil. Viruses were isolated from PBMC following co-cultivation with the feline T-lymphoblastoid cell line MYA-1.

Applications of the FIV Model to Study HIV Pathogenesis

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a naturally-occurring retrovirus that infects domestic and non-domestic feline species, producing progressive immune depletion that results in an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

An investigation of the breadth of neutralising antibody response in cats naturally infected with feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Neutralising antibodies (NAbs) are believed to comprise an essential component of the protective immune response induced by vaccines against FIV and HIV infections.

Animal shelter management of feline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus infections in cats

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Approximately 5% of cats in animal shelters in the United States test positive for either feline leukemia virus (FeLV) or feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), which translates to more than 100,000 positive cats managed by shelters each year.

Understanding the process of envelope glycoprotein incorporation into virions in simian and feline immunodeficiency viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The lentiviral envelope glycoproteins (Env) mediate virus entry by interacting with specific receptors present at the cell surface, thereby determining viral tropism and pathogenesis.

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Cell Entry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2001
ABSTRACT The process of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) cell entry was examined using assays for virus replication intermediates. FIV subtype B was found to utilize the chemokine receptor CXCR4, but not CCR5, as a cellular receptor. Zidovudine blocked formation of late viral replication products most effectively, including circular DNA ...

FIV vaccine with receptor epitopes results in neutralizing antibodies but does not confer resistance to challenge

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2018
Feline immunodeficiency virus: In vivo protection remains elusive A vaccine candidate for feline immunodeficiency virus elicits strong immunological reaction in vitro, but no protection to live cats. The feline analog to human immunodeficiency virus, FIV

The role of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in infection with feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Infection with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) leads to the development of a disease state similar to AIDS in man. Recent studies have identified the chemokine receptor CXCR4 as the major receptor for cell culture-adapted strains of FIV, suggesting ...

Feline immunodeficiency virus, feline leukaemia virus, Toxoplasma gondii, and intestinal parasitic infections in Taiwanese cats.

open access: yesBritish Veterinary Journal, 1990
A population consisting of 70 breeder cats, 43 clinical cases, and 16 feral cats was examined for the presence of Toxoplasma gondii, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV). No oocysts of T.

Serosurvey of mountain lions in southern Arizona

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
An understanding of the prevalence of diseases in free‐ranging populations of felids is limited, and there is even less known about the overall health and diseases of wild felids that inhabit or utilize urban areas.
