Transmission of sheep‑bovine spongiform encephalopathy to pigs [PDF]

, 2016
Experimental transmission of the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent has been successfully reported in pigs inoculated via three simultaneous distinct routes (intracerebral, intraperitoneal and intravenous).

No Adaptation of the Prion Strain in a Heterozygous Case of Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We investigated a clinical case of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in a person heterozygous for methionine/valine at codon 129 of the prion protein gene and identified the same strain properties in variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in methionine ...

Variability in disease phenotypes within a single PRNP genotype suggests the existence of multiple natural sheep scarpie strains within Europe [PDF]

, 2010
Variability of pathological phenotypes within classical sheep scrapie cases has been reported for some time, but in many instances it has been attributed to differences in the PRNP genotype of the host.

Current status of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in ruminants [PDF]

Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2004
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) encompass subacute neurological degenerative diseases for which the prototypes are scrapie in sheep and some forms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in man. The emergence of a new form of TSE in cattle in United

Asynchronous Onset of Clinical Disease in BSE-Infected Macaques

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
To estimate the effect of the variability of prion disease onset on primary bovine spongiform encephalopathy transmission to humans, we studied 6 cynomolgus macaques.

Detection and localisation of PrP(Sc) in the liver of sheep infected with scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Prions are largely contained within the nervous and lymphoid tissue of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) infected animals. However, following advances in diagnostic sensitivity, PrP(Sc), a marker for prion disease, can now be located in a ...

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy. Update

Acta Neurobiologiae Experimentalis, 2002
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a zoonosis being the origin of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and an important cattle disease in its own right. Countries have been slow to learn the importance of protecting, not only their cattle populations, but also their human populations.

Intraspecific Contact Among White‐Tailed Deer: A Literature Review and Chronic Wasting Disease Case Study

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We identified five themes underlying research on intraspecific contact among white‐tailed deer: physical touch, social groups, spatial overlap, contact rates, and social networks. We found white‐tailed deer infected with chronic wasting disease exhibited similar rates of intraspecific contact as those without infections.

Sustainable bioceramics, biopolymers, and composites for bone applications: From bench to production

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract In response to environmental challenges and primary resource scarcity, sustainable approaches that rely on recycling and reusing waste materials are becoming highly valuable and appealing options in modern society. These strategies have started being applied in biomaterials science, too, leading to the advent of new synergies between ...

Reputation in International Trade: Evidence From the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster

Review of International Economics, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 219-242, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A country's reputation may be an important determinant of its ability to export, but the effect is difficult to isolate from underlying product attributes. We consider the trade impact of the Fukushima nuclear disaster and ask whether damage to the Japanese reputation for food safety played a role in its impact. The disaster led to a large and
