Feline Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Delve into the complexities of Feline Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in this comprehensive presentation by Prof. Dr. Mike Chan, designed for veterinarians, veterinary gastroenterologists, and dedicated cat owners. Feline IBD, a chronic condition characterized by persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, leads to symptoms such as chronic vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, abdominal discomfort, and altered appetite. While the exact cause remains multifactorial, contributing factors include genetic predisposition, immune dysregulation, dietary sensitivities, and gut microbiome imbalance. Diagnosis requires a systematic approach, involving clinical history, blood tests, imaging, endoscopy, and intestinal biopsy to confirm the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration. Treatment strategies integrate dietary management, immunosuppressive therapy, and supportive care to control symptoms and prevent relapses. Beyond conventional care, the presentation introduces advanced regenerative and integrative innovations such as PSC (Precursor Stem Cell Therapy), FOP (Frozen Organo Peptides), FOC (Frozen Organo Cryogenics), and TopPetPro therapies including MITO Peptide Organotherapy and NANO Peptide Organotherapy. Together, these approaches aim to restore gut integrity, modulate immune function, and enhance quality of life in affected cats.
