2007 journal article

The detection of Cytauxzoon felis in apparently healthy free-roaming cats in the USA

VETERINARY PARASITOLOGY, 146(3-4), 316–320.

By: M. Haber n, M. Tucker n, H. Marr n, J. Levy*, J. Burgess*, M. Lappin *, A. Birkenheuer n 

author keywords: Cytauxzoonosis; PCR; free-roaming; survival; hyperendemic
MeSH headings : Animals; Carrier State; Cat Diseases / epidemiology; Cat Diseases / parasitology; Cats; Female; Male; Piroplasmida; Protozoan Infections, Animal / epidemiology; Protozoan Infections, Animal / parasitology; United States / epidemiology
TL;DR: Despite the low prevalence rate, the presence of apparently healthy infected free-roaming cats suggests that they may have the capacity to serve as an additional reservoir host for C. felis. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 journal article

Constitutive expression of types 1 and 2 cytokines by alveolar macrophages from feline immunodeficiency virus-infected cats

VETERINARY IMMUNOLOGY AND IMMUNOPATHOLOGY, 79(1-2), 83–100.

By: J. Ritchey  n, J. Levy n, S. Bliss n, W. Tompkins n & M. Tompkins n

author keywords: FIV; macrophages; interleukins
MeSH headings : Animals; Bronchoalveolar Lavage / veterinary; Cat Diseases / metabolism; Cats; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / metabolism; Gene Products, gag / biosynthesis; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline; Interleukin-10 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-12 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-6 / biosynthesis; Macrophages, Alveolar / metabolism; Male; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction / veterinary; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha / biosynthesis; Viral Envelope Proteins / biosynthesis
TL;DR: Pulmonary immune changes seen in FIV- Infected cats are similar to those seen in HIV-infected human patients, suggesting that the increased cytokine response by AM following infection of cats with FIV is an intrinsic characteristic of FIV -infected AM. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 journal article

Use of adult cat serum to correct failure of passive transfer in kittens

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 219(10), 1401–1405.

By: J. Levy*, P. Crawford n, W. Collante n & M. Papich n 

MeSH headings : Age Factors; Animal Feed; Animals; Animals, Newborn / blood; Animals, Newborn / immunology; Animals, Suckling / blood; Animals, Suckling / immunology; Cats / blood; Cats / immunology; Colostrum / immunology; Female; Food, Formulated / standards; Immunity, Maternally-Acquired / immunology; Immunodiffusion / veterinary; Immunoglobulin G / analysis; Immunoglobulin G / blood; Injections, Intraperitoneal / veterinary; Injections, Subcutaneous / veterinary; Male; Specific Pathogen-Free Organisms
TL;DR: Results suggest that adult cat serum may be used as an immunoglobulin supplement in colostrum-deprived kittens, although the minimum concentration of IgG necessary to protect kittens from infection is unknown. (via Semantic Scholar)

2000 journal article

T cells overexpressing interferon-gamma and interleukin-10 are found in both the thymus and secondary lymphoid tissues of feline immunodeficiency virus-infected cats

JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES, 181(2), 564–575.

By: Y. Liang n, L. Hudson n, J. Levy n, J. Ritchey  n, W. Tompkins n & M. Tompkins n

MeSH headings : Animals; B-Lymphocytes / immunology; Cats; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / immunology; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / pathology; Gene Products, gag / metabolism; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Immunohistochemistry; In Situ Hybridization; Interferon-gamma / biosynthesis; Interferon-gamma / genetics; Interleukin-10 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-10 / genetics; Lymph Nodes / immunology; Lymph Nodes / pathology; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; T-Lymphocyte Subsets / immunology; Thymus Gland / immunology; Thymus Gland / pathology
TL;DR: In conclusion, overexpression of IFN-gamma and IL-10 is a feature of the thymus and secondary lymphoid tissues of FIV-infected cats and is likely to cause marked alteration in thymic lymphocyte subpopulations. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 article

Elevated interleukin-10-to-interleukin-12 ratio in feline immunodeficiency virus-infected cats predicts loss of type 1 immunity to Toxoplasma gondii

Levy, J. K., Ritchey, J. W., Rottman, J. B., Davidson, M. G., Liang, Y. H., Jordan, H. L., … Tompkins, M. B. (1998, August). JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES, Vol. 178, pp. 503–511.

By: J. Levy n, J. Ritchey  n, J. Rottman  n, M. Davidson n, Y. Liang n, H. Jordan n, W. Tompkins n, M. Tompkins n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bronchi / immunology; Cats; Cytokines / biosynthesis; Cytokines / genetics; Disease Models, Animal; Immunity; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Interleukin-10 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-10 / genetics; Interleukin-10 / immunology; Interleukin-12 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-12 / genetics; Interleukin-12 / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / complications; Lentivirus Infections / immunology; Lymph Nodes / immunology; Male; RNA, Messenger; Toxoplasmosis / complications; Toxoplasmosis / immunology
TL;DR: Results indicate that FIV immunodeficiency may derive from a failure to generate an IL-12-dependent type 1 response and that an elevated level of IL-10 mRNA expression is a predictor of lentivirus immunodficiency. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Feline immunodeficiency virus is shed in semen from experimentally and naturally infected cats

AIDS RESEARCH AND HUMAN RETROVIRUSES, 14(12), 1087–1092.

By: H. Jordan*, J. Howard*, M. Barr, S. Kennedy-Stoskopf*, J. Levy* & W. Tompkins*

MeSH headings : Animals; Cats; Cell Line; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / virology; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / isolation & purification; Male; Semen / virology; Virus Shedding
TL;DR: Electroejaculates from four specific-pathogen-free males infected with another laboratory strain, FIV-Petaluma, and eight random source males with naturally acquired infections confirm that FIV shedding in semen is not restricted to a specific virus isolate, and swim-up sperm from Fiv- infected cats may be infectious in vitro.
