Background: Feline coronavirus (FCoV) exists as two pathotypes, and FCoV spike gene mutations are considered responsible for the pathotypic switch in feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate sensitivity and specificity of a real-time reverse...

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a serious polysystemic viral disease caused by feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), a mutation of feline enteric coronavirus (FECV). Cats aged 3 months to 3 years are reported to be more frequently affected (70% of the animals with the disease presents...

Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) causes a severe, immune-mediated disease called FIP in domestic and wild cats. It is unclear whether FIP transmits from cat to cat through the oral route of FIPV infection, and the reason for this includes that FIP is caused by oral inoculation with some...

Background: Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is considered highly fatal in its naturally occurring form, although up to 36% of cats resist disease after experimental infection, suggesting that cats in nature may also resist development of FIP in the face of infection with FIP virus (FIPV)....

Objectives: Feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) exist as two biotypes, feline enteric coronavirus and feline infectious peritonitis virus. Although feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a very common disease, the ante-mortem diagnosis of this disease still remains a challenge. Immunofluorescence staining ...

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) and Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV) are both of the most significant viral agents which affect negatively to the domestic cats' health. In this regards, we aimed to elucidate the prevalence status of FIP and FPV in domestic cats. With this aim, mentioned...

Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is classified into two biotypes based on its pathogenicity in cats: a feline enteric coronavirus of low pathogenicity and a highly virulent feline infectious peritonitis virus. It has been suspected that FCoV alters its biotype via mutations in the viral genome. The S and ...
