Abstract

A retrospective study was carried out on selected feline viral pathogens detected in domestic cat in Sicily, southern Italy. Samples from 64 cats, collected from 2020 to 2022, were analysed for the presence of feline panleukopenia virus, canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2), feline coronavirus (FCoV), feline calicivirus (FCV), feline herpesvirus type 1, norovirus (NoV), and rotavirus (RoV). Single (45 %) or mixed (38 %) viral infections were detected. FPV, related with other Italian FPV strains, remains the main viral cause of infection (66 %). CPV-2c Asian lineage strains (3 %) were detected for the first time in domestic cats in Europe. FCoV (29.6 %), either enteric or systemic, and systemic FCV (18.7 %) infections were detected in positive cats. Less commonly reported viruses (GIV.2/GVI.2 NoVs, RoV), potentially related to the animal/human interface, were detected at lower rates as well (5 %). The present epidemiological data suggest the need to improve disease prevention, immunization, and biosecurity strategies.

意大利南部家猫的病毒病原体：2020-2022 年西西里岛的回顾性分析

我们对意大利南部西西里岛家猫中检测到的部分猫病毒病原体进行了一项回顾性研究。研究人员对 2020 年至 2022 年期间收集的 64 只猫的样本进行了分析，以检测猫泛白细胞减少症病毒、犬细小病毒 2 型 (CPV-2)、猫冠状病毒 (FCoV)、猫犊牛病毒 (FCV)、猫疱疹病毒 1 型、诺如病毒 (NoV) 和轮状病毒 (RoV)。检测到单一（45 %）或混合（38 %）病毒感染。与其他意大利 FPV 株系相关的 FPV 仍是主要的病毒感染原因（66%）。CPV-2c 亚洲系毒株（3 %）首次在欧洲家猫中被检测到。在阳性猫中发现了肠道或全身性 FCoV（29.6%）和全身性 FCV（18.7%）感染。较少报道的病毒（GIV.2/GVI.2 NoVs、RoV）可能与动物/人类界面有关，其检出率也较低（5%）。目前的流行病学数据表明，有必要改进疾病预防、免疫和生物安全策略。

期刊介绍： Comparative Immunology, Microbiology & Infectious Diseases aims to respond to the concept of "One Medicine" and to provide a venue for scientific exchange. Based on the concept of "Comparative Medicine" interdisciplinary cooperation between specialists in human and animal medicine is of mutual interest and benefit. Therefore, there is need to combine the respective interest of physicians, veterinarians and other health professionals for comparative studies relevant to either human or animal medicine . The journal is open to subjects of common interest related to the immunology, immunopathology, microbiology, parasitology and epidemiology of human and animal infectious diseases, especially zoonotic infections, and animal models of human infectious diseases. The role of environmental factors in disease emergence is emphasized. CIMID is mainly focusing on applied veterinary and human medicine rather than on fundamental experimental research.
