MRI and clinical syndrome in dura materrelated Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective : Iatrogenic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (iCJD) is mainly associated with dura mater (DM) grafts and administration of human growth hormones (hGH). Data on disease course in DM-CJD are limited.

Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease prion infection of human cerebral organoids

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
For the transmissible, neurogenerative family of prion diseases, few human models of infection exist and none represent structured neuronal tissue. Human cerebral organoids are self-organizing, three-dimensional brain tissues that can be grown from ...

Cross currents in protein misfolding disorders: interactions and therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Protein Misfolding Disorders (PMDs) are a group of diseases characterized by the accumulation of abnormally folded proteins. Despite the wide range of proteins and tissues involved, PMDs share similar molecular and pathogenic mechanisms.

An atypical case of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease mimicking frontotemporal dementia: genotypic influence and clinical implications

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics
We report an atypical case of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) mimicking Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) in a 68-year-old male. The patient initially presented with an anxious-depressive syndrome, progressing over 29 months to include dysexecutive syndrome,

Gene expression profiling en association with prion-related lesions in the medulla oblongata of symptomatic natural scrapie animals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The pathogenesis of natural scrapie and other prion diseases remains unclear. Examining transcriptome variations in infected versus control animals may highlight new genes potentially involved in some of the molecular mechanisms of prion-induced ...

Assignment of the Human and Mouse Prion Protein Genes to Homologous Chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Purified preparations of scrapie prions contain one major macromolecule, designated prion protein (PrP). Genes encoding PrP are found in normal animals and humans but not within the infectious particles.
