Journal ArticleDOI
Plant lectins are potent inhibitors of coronaviruses by interfering with two targets in the viral replication cycle.
Els Keyaerts,Leen Vijgen,Christophe Pannecouque,Els J.M. Van Damme,Willy J. Peumans,Herman Egberink,Jan Balzarini,Marc Van Ranst +7 more
TL;DR: The antiviral activity of plant lectins with specificity for different glycan structures against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and the feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) in vitro is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feline herpesvirus infection. ABCD guidelines on prevention and management
Etienne Thiry,Diane Addie,Sándor Belák,Corine Boucraut-Baralon,Herman Egberink,Tadeusz Frymus,Tim Gruffydd-Jones,Katrin Hartmann,Margaret J Hosie,Albert Lloret,Hans Lutz,Fulvio Marsilio,Maria Grazia Pennisi,Alan D Radford,Uwe Truyen,Marian C. Horzinek +15 more
TL;DR: Feline herpesvirus infections cause acute rhinitis and conjunctivitis, usually accompanied by fever, depression and anorexia, and in most cats, FHV remains latent after recovery, and they become lifelong virus carriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feline infectious peritonitis. ABCD guidelines on prevention and management
Diane Addie,Sándor Belák,Corine Boucraut-Baralon,Herman Egberink,Tadeusz Frymus,Tim Gruffydd-Jones,Katrin Hartmann,Margaret J Hosie,Albert Lloret,Hans Lutz,Fulvio Marsilio,Maria Grazia Pennisi,Alan D Radford,Etienne Thiry,Uwe Truyen,Marian C. Horzinek +15 more
TL;DR: The clinical picture of FIP is highly variable, depending on the distribution of the vasculitis and pyogranulomatous lesions, and there are no controlled studies to prove any beneficial effect of corticosteroids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of feline coronavirus RNA in feces, tissues, and body fluids of naturally infected cats by reverse transcriptase PCR
A. A. P. M. Herrewegh,R. J. de Groot,A. Cepica,Herman Egberink,Marian C. Horzinek,Peter J. M. Rottier +5 more
TL;DR: The RT-nPCR assay with plasma or serum cannot be used to establish a definite diagnosis of FIP, but it does provide a new means to identify asymptomatic FCoV carriers and will be of use to screen cats before their introduction into F coV-free catteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Different Tests to Diagnose Feline Infectious Peritonitis
Katrin Hartmann,Christina Binder,Johannes Hirschberger,Dana Cole,Manfred Reinacher,Simone Schroo,Jens Frost,Herman Egberink,Hans Lutz,Walter Hermanns +9 more
TL;DR: Positive and negative predictive values of Rivalta's test, a test that distinguishes between exudates and transudates, and immunofluorescence staining of coronavirus antigen in macrophages were investigated, and diagnostic assays on the fluid in cats with body effusion had good predictive values.
