Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review
Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 346-367, April 2026.ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.

Transmission of New Bovine Prion to Mice
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006 We previously reported that cattle were affected by a prion disorder that differed from bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) by showing distinct molecular features of disease-associated protease-resistant prion protein (PrPres).

Prnp Deletion Mitigates Muscle Fiber Type‐Specific Sarcopenia Induced by Prion Infection in Mice
Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Recent studies have shown that significant expression of PrPC protein is also present in skeletal muscle, and it plays a significant role in maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis. Although the expression of PrPC in skeletal muscle has been clarified, the effects of PrPSc‐mediated prion protein infection on sarcopenia in mice and its ...

The Molecular Pathology of Prion Diseases [PDF]
, 2004 Prion diseases, or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative disorders. Uniquely, they may present as sporadic, inherited, or infectious forms, all of which involve conversion of the normal ...

A single amino acid alteration (101L) introduced into murine PrP dramatically alters incubation time of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy [PDF]
, 1999 A mutation equivalent to P102L in the human PrP gene, associated with Gerstmann-Straussler syndrome (GSS), has been introduced into the murine PrP gene by gene targeting.

Genome-wide search for markers associated with bovine spongiform encephalopathy
, 2002 A genome-wide search for markers associated with BSE incidence was performed by using Transmission-Disequilibrium Tests (TDTs). Significant segregation distortion, i.e., unequal transmission probabilities of alleles within a locus, was found for three ...

Neuropathological and molecular comparison between clinical and asymptomatic bovine spongiform encephalopathy cases [PDF]
, 2007 Interest in the proper neuropathological and molecular characterization of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) has increased since asymptomatic and atypical cases were detected in the cattle population by active disease surveillance.

Sheep Feed and Scrapie, France
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 Scrapie is a small ruminant, transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). Although in the past scrapie has not been considered a zoonosis, the emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, transmissible to humans and experimentally to sheep, indicates

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011 The agent that causes bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) may be infecting small ruminants, which could have serious implications for human health. To distinguish BSE from scrapie and to examine the molecular characteristics of the protease-resistant ...
