Prions

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2007
Prions were originally defined as infectious agents of protein nature, which caused neurodegenerative diseases in animals and humans. The prion concept implies that the infectious agent is a protein in special conformation that can be transmitted to the normal molecules of the same protein through protein-protein interactions.

Prion Diseases

Current Biology, 1992
There have been remarkably rapid advances in the understanding of prion diseases over the past year. The controversial notion that the transmissible agent may be an abnormal isoform of a host-encoded protein, the prion protein, is now gaining wide acceptance.

Prions and the prion disorders

Mammalian Genome, 1998
One of us remembers sitting in a high school biology class in 1977 being taught about scrapie, a naturally occurring disorder of sheep. The teacher had no particular interest in agriculture, but was pointing out some peculiar characteristics of this disease as a biological curiosity on a wet Friday afternoon.

Prion diseases

The Lancet Neurology, 2005
Prion diseases are degenerative disorders of the nervous system caused by transmissible particles that contain a pathogenic isoform of the prion protein, a normal constituent of cell membranes. The most common human prion disease is Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). Most cases are sporadic with unknown mode of transmission, 10-15% of cases are inherited,

Prion Diseases

Journal of Neurovirology, 2003
Prion diseases are incurable neurodegenerative conditions affecting both animals and humans. They may be sporadic, infectious, or inherited in origin. Human prion diseases include Creutzfeldt-Jakob desease (CJD), Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease, kuru, and fatal familial insomnia.
