Alveolar macrophages are the main target cells in feline calicivirus-associated pneumonia

TL;DR: It is shown that lung involvement is an infrequent but important feature of FCV-induced URD, and the viral target cells in the lung are identified as activated alveolar macrophages and type II pneumocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA vaccines encoding proteins from wild-type and attenuated canine distemper virus protect equally well against wild-type virus challenge

TL;DR: Because these two DNA vaccines were shown to protect equally well against wild-type virus challenge, it is suggested that the genetic/antigenic heterogeneity between vaccine strains and contemporary wild- type strains are unlikely to cause vaccine failure.

Intravascular hemolysis associated with Candidatus Mycoplasma hematoparvum in a non-splenectomized dog in the south region of Iran.

TL;DR: Hemoplasmosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis in dogs with hemolytic process and pyrexia and the PCR evaluation for hemoplasma DNA should be included in the investigation of such cases to enable the rapid detection of this infection, which may be more common than previously estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feline infectious diarrhea.

TL;DR: A systematic approach to a cat with possible infectious diarrhea is presented, along with a detailed description of the best way to perform an in-house fecal examination.
Book ChapterDOI

Zoonotic Infections: The Role of Biofilms

TL;DR: It has been suggested that biofilms are involved in 65–80% of infections treated by doctors in developed countries, and more research into biofilm infections in humans and animals, biofilm resistance mechanisms and new strategies for effective treatment need to be developed.
