Surgical procedures on large skin defects can be challenging in the short term due to size of lesion, infection, and tissue defect. A regenerative therapy for wounds has been applied promote healing process. An 8-month-old, Korean domestic short-haired female cat, weighing 3 kg, was rescued with extensive right flank inguinal region caused by bite wounds. In this case, amniotic membranes adipos...

Background: Hair follicle cycling usually associated with prominent changes in skin vascularization; through follicular dermal papilla production of angiogenic factors. The early response of hair follicles to ionizing irradiation (IR) is induction of early anagen hair and appearance of new hair formation. Material and Method: Fifty rats were equally divided into 2 groups; control and γ-rays (10...

Objective: Sarcomas are neoplasms of mesenchymal (stem cell) origin and are rare skin diseases of cats and may occur anywhere on the cat body.The main etiologies of soft tissue sarcomas are Feline sarcoma virus induced sarcomas, vaccine site sarcomas, trauma, inflammation and radiation. Methods: In March 2014, a three years old male domestic shorthair cat were referred to a private veterinary c...

| Let X be a CAT ( 1) space which is spherically symmetric around some point x0 2 X and whose boundary has nite positive s dimensional Hausdor measure. Let = ( x)x2X be a conformal density of dimension d > s=2 on @X. We prove that x0 is a weak limit of measures supported on spheres centered at x0. These measures are expressed in terms of the total mass function of and of the d dimensional spher...

Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infects numerous wild and domestic feline species and is closely related to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). Species-specific strains of FIV have been described for domestic cat (Felis catus), puma (Puma concolor), lion (Panthera leo), leopard (Panthera pardus), and Pallas' cat (Otocolobus manul). Here, we employ a t...

  Cartilage hair hypoplasia (CHH), is a rare cause of metaphyseal chondrodysplasia and short stature. Other features included hair abnormality, immunodeficiency, anemia, gastrointestinal disorders (Hirschsprung disease, celiac, …) and increased risk of cancer. The disease is an autosomal recessive disorder and previously has not been reported in Iran. We report a 9-year-old boy diagnosed as car...

This experiment was studied to examine the in vitro developmental potential of enucleateddomestic cat oocytes reconstructed with skin fibroblasts from female domestic and leopard cats. The cumulus oocyte complex of domestic cat were cultured in IVM medium under 38.5°C, 5%CO2, 5%O2,90%N2 for 24 hours. The matured oocytes were enucleated and individual donor cell was inserted into...

Translocation of mtDNA into the nuclear genome, also referred to as numt, was first reported in the domestic cat (Felis catus) by Lopez et al. (1994). The Lopez-numt consisted of a translocation of 7.9 kbp of mtDNA that inserted into the domestic cat chromosome D2 around 1.8 million years ago. More than a decade later, the release of the domestic cat whole-genome shotgun sequences (1.9x coverag...
