Abstract
Feline panleukopenia virus (FPLV) was shown to induce apoptosis to fel ine lymphoid cells and to reduce the expression of interleukin-2 recep tor alpha on the cells. FPLV-induced apoptosis might be a key element in the pathophysiology of atrophy of lymphoid tissues associated with feline panleukopenia caused by FPLV.
