Regional heterogeneity of cellular prion protein isoforms in the mouse brain
- Abstract:
-
Prion diseases are a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative disorders that include Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease in humans, scrapie in sheep and goats, and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle. The infectious agent or prion is largely composed of an abnormal isoform (PrPSc) of a host encoded normal cellular protein (PrPc). The conversion of PrPc to PrPSc is a dynamic process and, for reasons that are not clear, the distribution of spongiform change and PrPSc deposition varies among pri...
