| HIV | Ag human immunodeficiency virus antigen |
|---|---|
| HIVAN | human immunodeficiency virus-associated nephropathy |
| HIV-G | human immunodeficiency virus-associated gingivitis |
| IDAV | immunodeficiency-associated virus |
| SIV | simian immunodeficiency virus; Sprague-Dawley-Ivanovas [rat] |

|---|---|
| feline sarcoma | <oncology, tumour> An oncogene carried by one of the strains of the feline sarcoma virus (the Snyder-Theilen strain, Garden-Rasheed strain, McDonough strain). It causes the development of sarcoma tumours in cats. The normal product of the gene (as a proto-oncogene) seems to be a kinase enzyme that phosphorylates (attaches phosphate groups to) the amino acid tyrosine in polypeptides. (09 Oct 1997) |
| feline urolithiasis syndrome | <syndrome> A common disease of cats where development of urinary calculi produce urethral obstruction in males and cystitis and urethritis in females. Synonym: feline urolithiasis syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| feline urological syndrome | <syndrome> A common disease of cats where development of urinary calculi produce urethral obstruction in males and cystitis and urethritis in females. Synonym: feline urolithiasis syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| feline viral rhinotracheitis | An acute upper respiratory tract infection of cats caused by the feline rhinotracheitis virus; it is frequently fatal in kittens but mild in adults, who sometimes become convalescent carriers of the virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lentiviruses, feline | A subgenus of lentivirus comprising viruses that produce multi-organ disease with long incubation periods in cats. (12 Dec 1998) |
| leukaemia, feline | A neoplastic disease of cats frequently associated with feline leukaemia virus infection. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bovine virus diarrhoea virus | A virus of the genus Pestivirus, in the family Togaviridae, causing bovine virus diarrhoea; New York, Oregon, and Indiana strains of the virus are recognised. Synonym: mucosal disease virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abelson leukaemia virus | A defective murine leukaemia virus capable of transforming lymphoid cells and producing a rapidly progressing lymphoid leukaemia after superinfection with friend, moloney, or rauscher virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Abelson murine leukaemia virus | A retrovirus belonging to the Type C retrovirus group subfamily (family Oncovirinae) which is associated with leukaemia and produces in vitro transformation of mouse cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adeno-associated virus | <virology> A genus of viruses in the family Parvoviridae which are all defective viruses (unable to replicate by themselves) and depend on the co-infection of their host cell by other, nondefective viruses to help them replicate. (09 Oct 1997) |
| adenoidal-pharyngeal-conjunctival virus | <virology> An icosahedral (20-sided) virus that contains DNA, there are over 40 different adenovirus varieties, some of which cause the common cold. (10 May 1997) |
| adenosatellite virus | <virology> A genus of viruses in the family Parvoviridae which are all defective viruses (unable to replicate by themselves) and depend on the co-infection of their host cell by other, nondefective viruses to help them replicate. (09 Oct 1997) |
| african horse sickness virus | A species of orbivirus that causes disease in horses, mules, and donkeys. (12 Dec 1998) |
| african swine fever virus | The lone species of the genus african swine fever-like viruses. The virus causes a fatal disease among domestic pigs in africa and a less virulent infection in europe. The virus is present in soft ticks (ornithodoros moubata), warthogs, or domestic pigs. Originally listed as a species of iridoviridae, the virus exhibits some similarities to poxviridae but its differences warranted placement in a separate genus of an, as yet unknown, family.
