Recombinant feline interferon-x (rFeIFNx) has shown an antiviral action not only against FIV and FeLV but also against herpesvirus (FHV-1) and calicivirus (FCV). Sixteen naturally infected FIV/FeLV cats were followed during rFeIFNx therapy in order to monitor clinical signs and to correlate with excretion of concomitant viruses (FCV, FHV-1, feline coronavirus (FCoV) and parvovirus (FPV)). Cats were submitted to clinical evaluations and concomitant virus excretion assessement. Comparing D0–D65, 10/16 cats improved clinical scores. Of the 10 cats positive for FHV-1 on D0, 4 were negative and 6 reduced viral loads. Of the 11 FCoV positive cats, 9 reduced viral loads. The 13 FCV positive cats and the FPV positive cat were negative on D65. In conclusion, rFeIFNx improves clinical signs and reduces concurrent viral excretion in naturally infected retroviral cats.Elsevier Ltd.Repositório da Universidade de LisboaGil, SolangeLeal, Rodolfo O.Duarte, AnaMcGahie, DavidSepúlveda, NunoSiborro, InêsCravo, JoanaCartaxeiro, ClaraTavares, Luís M.2014-09-25T15:52:45Z2013-062013-06-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/7210engGil, S., et al.
