Neutralizing antibodies in cats infected with feline immunodeficiency virus.
Sera from cats experimentally infected with five isolates of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) from various geographical regions and from FIV enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-seropositive field cats from four European countries neutralized the Petaluma strain of FIV (FIV-P), originally isolated in California, at high titers. In addition, FIV-P and a European isolate proved equally susceptibl...
متن کاملAntibody Detection to Feline Immunodeficiency virus (FIV) in stray cats in Ahvaz, southwestern Iran
The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of FIV in stray cat's population of Ahvaz different area. Serum samples were collected from 90 cats from 2005 to 2007. The studied cats were divided into two age groups (3 years) and based on clinical signs (such as lymphadenopathy, periodontal diseases, gingivitis, abscess and cashecsi) into two groups also.

متن کاملAn investigation of the breadth of neutralizing antibody response in cats naturally infected with feline immunodeficiency virus
Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) are believed to comprise an essential component of the protective immune response induced by vaccines against feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections. However, relatively little is known about the role of NAbs in controlling FIV infection and subsequent disease progression. Here, we present studies where we examined th...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) among Client-owned Cats in Ahvaz, Southwestern of Iran
The present study was conducted to detect prevalence and risk factors for retrovirus infection of infected cats in a cat population in Iran, by evaluation of 238 client-owned cats of different ages that were tested for the presence of FIV antibodies. The cats were selected from those referring to Veterinary Hospital of Ahvaz University, southwestern Iran from December 2007 to June 2010. Classif...
متن کاملAntibodies neutralizing feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) in cats immunized with the transmembrane envelope protein p15E.
The feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) vaccines that are currently in wide use are generally poor inducers of virus-neutralizing antibodies, although such antibodies appear after recovering from challenge. However, the presence of neutralizing antibodies in cats recovering from natural FeLV infection clearly correlates with resistance to subsequent infection and passive transfer of antibodies can pr...
