Abstract

Received: Revised: Accepted: Published online: November 22, 2019 December 20, 2019 December 26, 2019 January 21, 2020 The aim of this study was molecular detection of FIV, FeLV and FHV-1 and determination of frequency of these infections in cats and evaluation of clinical signs and status of the animals. For this, 30 household cats and 30 stray cats were clinically examined and blood samples and eye-swabs were taken. Samples were analysed by ELISA and PCR. In ELISA, 4 of 60 cats were positive for FIV and 6 of 60 for FeLV. FIV proviral-DNA was detected in 6 of 60 cats and FeLV proviralDNA in 11 of 60 cats by PCR. Also, FHV-1-DNA was detected in eye swabs in 26 cats out of 60 cats. Clinically, eye disorders, ulcers in oral mucosa and respiratory disorders were observed in FIV, FeLV and FHV infected cats. Eye disorders were mostly seen in FHV-1 positive cats while fever was prominent in FeLV and FHV infected cats. The results show that FIV, FeLV and herpesvirus-1 are affecting the cat’s health and can make them susceptible to other pathogens which increase the risk of cat’s life. ©2019 PVJ.

土耳其伊斯坦布尔地区猫疱疹病毒-1、猫免疫缺陷病毒和猫白血病病毒的分子检测及临床意义

2019年11月22日2019年12月20日2019年12月26日2020年1月21日本研究的目的是对猫中FIV、FeLV和FHV-1的分子检测和感染频率的测定，并评估动物的临床症状和状态。为此，对30只家养猫和30只流浪猫进行了临床检查，并采集了血液样本和眼拭子。采用ELISA和PCR对样品进行分析。ELISA检测60只猫中有4只呈FIV阳性，6只呈FeLV阳性。60只猫中6只检测到FIV前病毒dna, 11只检测到FeLV前病毒dna。此外，在60只猫中的26只猫的眼拭子中检测到fhv -1 dna。临床上，FIV、FeLV和FHV感染猫均出现眼部疾病、口腔黏膜溃疡和呼吸系统疾病。FHV-1阳性猫以眼部疾病为主，FeLV和FHV感染猫以发热为主。结果表明，FIV、FeLV和疱疹病毒-1正在影响猫的健康，并使它们容易感染其他病原体，从而增加猫的生命风险。©2019 PVJ。版权所有
