Atypical status of bovine spongiform encephalopathy in Poland: a molecular typing study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The aim of this study was to analyze molecular features of protease-resistant prion protein (PrPres) in Western blots of BSE cases diagnosed in Poland with respect to a possible atypical status.

Hofmeister Effect in RT-QuIC Seeding Activity of Chronic Wasting Disease Prions

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) that causes a fatal neurodegenerative disease in cervids. Cases of CWD are rapidly increasing in North America among wild and farmed cervid populations, and potential for ...

Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...

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 ...

RNF213 Is an Interferon‐Stimulated Gene That Targets Influenza A Virus NP and Activates MDA5 to Restrict Infection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
RNF213 is characterized as a dual‐functional antiviral effector. It directly mediates the degradation of the influenza A virus nucleoprotein (NP) while simultaneously activating the MDA5‐mediated innate immune signaling pathway. This coordinated response establishes a powerful host defense system against viral infection. ABSTRACT Influenza A virus (IAV)

Prion-induced neurotoxicity: Possible role for cell cycle activity and DNA damage response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Protein misfolding neurodegenerative diseases arise through neurotoxicity induced by aggregation of host proteins. These conditions include Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, motor neuron disease, tauopathies and prion ...

Heterologous prion-forming proteins interact to cross-seed aggregation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The early stages of protein misfolding remain incompletely understood, as most mammalian proteinopathies are only detected after irreversible protein aggregates have formed.

PAD-Beads enrichment enhances detection of PrPSc using real-time quaking-induced conversion

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2019
Objective Scrapie is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) that naturally occurs in sheep and goats. This fatal neurodegenerative disease results from misfolding of the normal cellular prion protein (PrPC) to a pathogenic prion protein form ...

MiRNA expression profiles in the brains of mice infected with scrapie agents 139A, ME7 and S15

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2016
MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of non-coding endogenous small-molecule single-stranded RNA that regulates complementary mRNA through degradation or translation of the mRNA targets. Usually, miRNAs show remarkable cell and tissues specificity.

Neuroanatomical correlates of prion disease progression - a 3T longitudinal voxel-based morphometry study

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2016
Purpose MRI has become an essential tool for prion disease diagnosis. However there exist only a few serial MRI studies of prion patients, and these mostly used whole brain summary measures or region of interest based approaches.
