Canine detection of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in laboratory and field settings. [PDF]

Prion, 2023
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy that affects both free-ranging and farmed cervid species, including mule deer, white-tailed deer, and elk (Odocoileus hemionus, Odocoileus virginianus, and Cervus canadensis). Due to the long incubation period and variability of clinical signs, CWD can expand and spread to

Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in Cervids and the Consequences of a Mutable Protein Conformation. [PDF]

ACS Omega, 2022
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease of cervids (deer, elk, moose, etc.). It spreads readily from CWD-contaminated environments and among wild cervids. As of 2022, North American CWD has been found in 29 states, four Canadian provinces and South Korea. The Scandinavian form of CWD originated independently.

Chronic Wasting Disease in Farmed Cervids, South Korea, 2001–2024 [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) was identified in imported elk in South Korea in 2001 and has spread among cervids nationwide. The country’s surveillance and control policy culls cervids from any CWD-positive farms, and prevalence during 2020–2024 was

The complete mitochondrial genome of Cervus canadensis (Erxleben, 1777), as a model species of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2020
Cervus canadensis (Erxleben, 1777) has been used as a model species of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). We completed the mitochondrial genome of C. canadensis, susceptible to the CWD. Its length is 16,428 bp, identical to the previous mitochondrial genome of C.

First results of chronic wasting disease (CWD) surveillance in the South‐Eastern part of Belgium [PDF]

Veterinary Quarterly, 2005
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) has not been reported in Europe, whereas it is considered to be enzootic in free-ranging mule deer, Rocky mountain elk and white-tailed deer in the area of Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska, and new foci of CWD have been detected in other parts of the United States.

Distribution of chronic wasting disease (CWD) prions in tissues from experimentally exposed coyotes (Canis latrans). [PDF]

PLoS One
Cervids susceptible to chronic wasting disease (CWD) are sympatric with multiple other animal species that can interact with infectious prions. Several reports have described the susceptibility of other species to CWD prions, or their potential to transport them.
