spelling Oral Recombinant Feline Interferon-Omega as an alternative immune modulation therapy in FIV positive cats : clinical and laboratory evaluationFeline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV)Recombinant-Feline Interferon Omega (rFeIFN-ω)Immune-modulationOral therapyArticles in International JournalsRecombinant-Feline Interferon-Omega (rFeIFN-ω) is an immune-modulator licensed for use subcutaneously in Feline Immunodeficiency virus (FIV) therapy. Despite oral protocols have been suggested, little is known about such use in FIV-infected cats. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical improvement, laboratory findings, concurrent viral excretion and acute phase proteins (APPs) in naturally FIV-infected cats under oral rFeIFN-ω therapy (0.1 MU/cat rFeIFN-ω PO, SID, 90 days). 11 FIV-positive cats were treated with oral rFeIFN-ω (PO Group). Results were compared to previous data from 7 FIV-positive cats treated with the subcutaneous licensed protocol (SC Group). Initial clinical scores were similar in both groups. Independently of the protocol, rFeIFN-ω induced a significant clinical improvement of treated cats. Concurrent viral excretion and APP’s variation were not significant in the PO Group. Oral rFeIFN-ω can be an effective alternative therapy for FIV-infected cats, being also an option for treatment follow-up in cats submitted to the licensed protocol.Elsevier Ltd.Repositório da Universidade de LisboaGil, S.Leal, R.O.McGahie, D.Sepúlveda, N.Duarte, A.Niza, M.M.R.E.Tavares, L.2014-09-25T16:13:13Z2014-022014-02-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/7211engGil, S., et al.
