Receptor-mediated activation is accompanied by phospholipid metabolism and by calcium fluctuation resulting in a chemiluminescence (CL) response in the neutrophil. This pathway involves activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and the NADPH oxidase. Artificial stimulants such as phorbol esters, specifically 12-O-tetradecanylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), circumvent the receptor-mediated pathway and activate PKC resulting in a measurable CL response. Neutrophils from feline leukemia virus (FeLV) exposed cats were tested for their ability to generate a TPA-induced CL response. As compared to the non-FeLV-exposed specific-pathogen-free (SPF) control cat neutrophil CL responses, both viremic and nonviremic FeLV-exposed cats showed significant decreases in their CL responsiveness. Neither ultraviolet light-inactivated FeLV (UV-FeLV) nor protein components (FeLV-p15E and FeLV-p27) caused a significant decrease in the CL responses of the SPF cat neutrophils. The suppressed TPA-induced CL response from FeLV-infected cats may involve an intracellular mechanism not affected in vitro by exposure of the neutrophil to the virus or viral components.

D002415	Cats	The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
