FIP
- Humoral
(antibody-mediated)
immunity alone is
ineffective at controlling
the virus
- Wet, effusive form
- Vascular damage
occurs through
replication of virus in
macrophages causing
inflammation around
small vessels
- Pleural effusion
- Ascites
- Complement
activation &
inflammatory mediator
production
- Low grade DIC
- Some degree of
cell-mediated
immunity, humoral
response, and partial
control of virus
- Dry, non-effusive form
- Slower vascular
damage &
replication but not
enough to stop
disease progression
- Pyogranulomas
- Vessels
- Eyes
- Brain
- Liver
- Kidneys
- Lungs
- Skin
- Very strong and
rapid cell-mediated
response can
eliminate virus in
early stages
- Early signs: fluctuating fever, inappetance, lethargy, weight loss
