Transmission of Atypical Bovine Prions to Mice Transgenic for Human Prion Protein

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
To assess risk for cattle-to-human transmission of prions that cause uncommon forms of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), we inoculated mice expressing human PrP Met129 with field isolates.

Chemical Approaches for Array Based Detection of Amyloids

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 4, Issue 11, November 2025.
Amyloids are protein aggregates with both pathological and functional roles. Their detection is challenged by structural polymorphism, isoform diversity, and dynamic aggregation behavior. This review presents chemical array‐based sensing strategies that address these complexities, emphasizing fluorescence and colorimetric methods, alongside ...

Improving Clinical Diagnosis of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies in Sheep: Which Signs Are Important?

Animals
Scrapie is a notifiable transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) in sheep that relies on clinical examinations for reporting suspects. A short examination protocol was used in 1002 sheep to define clinical markers suggestive of scrapie.

Sheep Feed and Scrapie, France

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Scrapie is a small ruminant, transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). Although in the past scrapie has not been considered a zoonosis, the emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, transmissible to humans and experimentally to sheep, indicates

Molecular Typing of Protease-Resistant Prion Protein in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies of Small Ruminants, France, 2002–2009

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
The agent that causes bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) may be infecting small ruminants, which could have serious implications for human health. To distinguish BSE from scrapie and to examine the molecular characteristics of the protease-resistant ...

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Infectivity in Greater Kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros)

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Of all the species exposed naturally to the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent, the greater kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros), a nondomesticated bovine from Africa, appears to be the most susceptible to the disease.

Rapid Typing of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy Strains with Differential ELISA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
The bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent has been transmitted to humans, leading to variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Sheep and goats can be experimentally infected by BSE and have been potentially exposed to natural BSE; however, whether BSE ...
