Diseases of the domestic cat (Felis catus or F. domesticus). This term does not include diseases of the so-called big cats such as CHEETAHS; LIONS; tigers, cougars, panthers, leopards, and other Felidae for which the heading CARNIVORA is used.

" 01/01/2005 - "Broader applications of the ELISPOT should further our understanding of feline diseases and be useful in the rational development of more efficacious vaccines and therapeutic modalities for the enhancement of feline health. " 01/01/2017 - "Feline coronavirus (FCoV) causes the fatal disease feline infectious peritonitis, which is currently incurable by drug treatment, and no effective vaccines are available. " 11/01/2019 - "Feline coronavirus infection can progress to a fatal infectious peritonitis, which is a widespread feline disease without an effective vaccine. " 01/01/2005 - "For researchers studying feline disease or using the cat as a model of human disease, the quantification of cytokine-producing cells by ELISPOT is an invaluable technique for investigations of disease immunopathogenesis and vaccine efficacy. "

"
4.	Interleukin-17 (Interleukin 17)IBA 01/01/2017 - "By way of proof of concept, we tested a range of such vaccines against chronic inflammatory conditions (model: psoriasis, antigen: interleukin-17), neurodegenerative (Alzheimer's, β-amyloid), and allergic disease (cat allergy, Fel-d1), respectively.
