Journal ArticleDOI

Shared usage of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 by the feline and human immunodeficiency viruses.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cell culture-adapted strains of FIV are able to use the alpha-chemokine receptor CXCR4 for cell fusion, suggesting a close evolutionary link between FIV and HIV and a common mechanism of infection involving an interaction between the virus and a member of the seven-transmembrane domain chemokine receptors family of molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feline herpesvirus infection. ABCD guidelines on prevention and management

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

Use of CD134 as a primary receptor by the feline immunodeficiency virus.

TL;DR: A primary receptor for FIV is identified as CD134 (OX40), a T cell activation antigen and costimulatory molecule that promotes viral binding and renders cells permissive for viral entry, productive infection, and syncytium formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

FIV infection of the domestic cat: an animal model for AIDS

TL;DR: It is shown that the induction of protective immunity to FIV infection using inactivated virus vaccines offers hope for the development of a successful vaccine for AIDS.
