Chronic Wasting Disease Agents in Nonhuman Primates
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 Chronic wasting disease is a prion disease of cervids. Assessment of its zoonotic potential is critical. To evaluate primate susceptibility, we tested monkeys from 2 genera.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2007 Until recently, chronic wasting disease of cervids, the only prion disease affecting wildlife, was believed to be geographically concentrated to Colorado and Wyoming within the United States. However, increased surveillance has unveiled several additional pockets of CWD-infected deer and elk in 12 additional states and 2 Canadian provinces.

Veterinary Pathology, 2005 Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a unique transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) of mule deer ( Odocoileus hemionus), white-tailed deer ( O. virginianus), and Rocky Mountain elk ( Cervus elaphus nelsoni). The natural history of CWD is incompletely understood, but it differs from scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) by virtue of ...
