Influence of Interspecies Transmission of Atypical Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Prions to Hamsters on Prion Characteristics

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a prion disease in cattle and is classified into the classical type (C-BSE) and two atypical BSEs, designated as high type (H-BSE) and low type (L-BSE).

EU-approved rapid tests for bovine spongiform encephalopathy detect atypical forms: a study for their sensitivities. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Since 2004 it become clear that atypical bovine spongiform encephalopthies (BSEs) exist in cattle. Whenever their detection has relied on active surveillance plans implemented in Europe since 2001 by rapid tests, the overall and inter-laboratory ...

Demographic risk factors for classical and atypical scrapie in Great Britain [PDF]

, 2007
Following the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) crisis, the European Union has introduced policies for eradicating transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), including scrapie, from large ruminants. However, recent European Union surveillance

Atypical status of bovine spongiform encephalopathy in Poland: a molecular typing study [PDF]

, 2008
The aim of this study was to analyze molecular features of protease-resistant prion protein (PrPres) in Western blots of BSE cases diagnosed in Poland with respect to a possible atypical status.

Classical Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy by Transmission of H-Type Prion in Homologous Prion Protein Context

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and BSE-related disorders have been associated with a single major prion strain. Recently, 2 atypical, presumably sporadic forms of BSE have been associated with 2 distinct prion strains that are characterized ...

Pruritus is a common feature in sheep infected with the BSE agent. [PDF]

, 2008
BACKGROUND: The variability in the clinical or pathological presentation of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) in sheep, such as scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), has been attributed to prion protein genotype, strain ...

Individual factors associated with L- and H-type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in France

BMC Veterinary Research, 2012
Background Cattle with L-type (L-BSE) and H-type (H-BSE) atypical Bovine Spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) were identified in 2003 in Italy and France respectively before being identified in other countries worldwide.

Experimental transmission of ovine atypical scrapie to cattle

Veterinary Research, 2023
Classical bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle was caused by the recycling and feeding of meat and bone meal contaminated with a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) agent but its origin remains unknown. This study aimed to determine

Differentiation of ruminant transmissible spongiform encephalopathy isolate types, including bovine spongiform encephalopathy and CH1641 scrapie [PDF]

, 2010
With increased awareness of the diversity of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) strains in the ruminant population, comes an appreciation of the need for improved methods of differential diagnosis. Exposure to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (
