| Background: The present study aimed to investigate the concentration of serum trace elements (copper, iron, zinc, and selenium) and oxidant/antioxidant status (malondialdehyde, total antioxidant capacity, and thiol group) in Persian cats with dermatophytosis and compare them with healthy controls and other dermatological disorders. Methods: Three groups of cats were selected: cats with dermatophytosis (n = 13), cats with other dermatologic conditions (n = 6) and clinically and dermatologically healthy cats (n = 6). All 25 cats were subjected to clinical and dermatological examinations, including direct microscopic examination and fungal culture. Additionally, the possible contamination with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia virus infection (FeLV) were also tested. Results: Microsporum canis was the only dermatophyte species isolated from the affected cats, and only two of cats were infected with the FIV; one in the dermatophytosis and one in the other skin diseases group. For trace elements, we did not detect difference between cats with dermatophytosis and healthy ones. However, copper levels were higher in other skin diseases groups compared with healthy controls (P <0.05). Cats with dermatophytosis and other skin diseases revealed a decrease in total antioxidant capacity compared with the healthy controls (P <0.01). Conclusion: The present study found variations in oxidative indices in cats with dermatophytosis and other skin disorders. This finding may support the hypothesis that improvement of the antioxidant status through dietary supplementation may be beneficial in the prevention and resolution of skin diseases in cats. | ||
