Bovine spongiform encephalopathy: A review of current knowledge and challenges

Open Veterinary Journal
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also referred to as mad cow disease, is a chronic degenerative disease that affects the central nervous systems. BSE is caused by a misfolded isoform of the prion protein (PrP), a widely expressed glycoprotein. The
