Bovine adapted transmissible mink encephalopathy is similar to L-BSE after passage through sheep with the VRQ/VRQ genotype but not VRQ/ARQ. [PDF]

BMC Vet Res, 2020
Background Transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME) is a fatal neurologic disease of farmed mink. Evidence indicates that TME and L-BSE are similar and may be linked in some outbreaks of TME.

Deciphering the BSE-type specific cell and tissue tropisms of atypical (H and L) and classical BSE

Prion, 2019
After the discovery of two atypical bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) forms in France and Italy designated H- and L-BSE, the question arose whether these new forms differed from classical BSE (C-BSE) in their pathogenesis.

Possible alignment of the EU BSE surveillance with the new WOAH provisions. [PDF]

EFSA J
The European Commission requested the assessment of the capacity of the surveillance provisions of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to detect bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) cases (C‐, H‐ and L‐type) in the European Union (EU) and ...

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy: An Integrated Review of Prion Mechanisms, Neuroanatomy, and Control. [PDF]

Vet Sci
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy caused by the misfolding of the host prion protein (PrP), representing a unique intersection between molecular pathology, neuroanatomy, and public health regulation.

Clinical, pathological, and molecular features of classical and L-type atypical-BSE in goats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Monitoring of small ruminants for transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) has recently become more relevant after two natural scrapie suspected cases of goats were found to be positive for classical BSE (C-BSE). C-BSE probably established itself

RT-QuIC detection of pathological prion protein in subclinical goats following experimental oral transmission of L-type BSE

BMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective The spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent to small ruminants is still a major issue in the surveillance of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). L-type bovine spongiform encephalopathy (L-BSE) is an atypical form of

Biochemical Characteristics and PrP(Sc) Distribution Pattern in the Brains of Cattle Experimentally Challenged with H-type and L-type Atypical BSE. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Besides the classical form of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) that has been known for almost three decades, two atypical forms designated H-type and L-type BSE have recently been described.

Phenotypic Similarity of Transmissible Mink Encephalopathy in Cattle and L-type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in a Mouse Model

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Transmissible mink encepholapathy (TME) is a foodborne transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) of ranch-raised mink; infection with a ruminant TSE has been proposed as the cause, but the precise origin of TME is unknown.

Influence of Interspecies Transmission of Atypical Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Prions to Hamsters on Prion Characteristics

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a prion disease in cattle and is classified into the classical type (C-BSE) and two atypical BSEs, designated as high type (H-BSE) and low type (L-BSE).

Individual factors associated with L- and H-type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in France

BMC Veterinary Research, 2012
Background Cattle with L-type (L-BSE) and H-type (H-BSE) atypical Bovine Spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) were identified in 2003 in Italy and France respectively before being identified in other countries worldwide.
