Prion Protein Disease and Neuropathology of Prion Disease
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2008Human prion diseases, in common with other neurodegenerative diseases, may be sporadic or inherited and are characterized by the accumulation of cellular proteins accompanied by neuronal death and synaptic loss. Prion diseases are, however, unique in being transmissible.

Pathogenesis of prion diseases
Acta Neuropathologica, 2005Prion diseases are rare neurological disorders that may be of genetic or infectious origin, but most frequently occur sporadically in humans. Their outcome is invariably fatal. As the responsible pathogen, prions have been implicated. Prions are considered to be infectious particles that represent mainly, if not solely, an abnormal, protease-resistant ...

Prions are generally regarded as the most reliable markers of so-called prion diseases. With the advent of the protein-only concept of the transmission of prion diseases, which is predicated on the idea that prions are the infectious agents causing prion disease, and with the 1997 Nobel Prize for Medicine awarded for the prion protein concept, prions ...

Abstract Human prion diseases include idiopathic, genetic, and acquired disorders. Heterogeneous clinicopathologic features make diagnosis challenging. Accurate diagnosis requires a combined clinical, neuropathologic, genetic, and biochemical approach. Neuropathologic assessment is performed following autopsy in most cases.

Currently known transmissive spongiform encephalopathies in humans and animals are presented. Caused by prions, they are known as "prion disease". The results of extensive investigations of prions are described, as well as the theories about their nature.

[The prion hypothesis and the human prion diseases].
Berliner und Munchener tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 2002Our understanding of the pathogenesis of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) has made terrific headway over the past 40 years and some scientists are even of the opinion that this group of diseases belongs to the neurodegenerative syndromes best understood. On the other hand, the investigation of TSE has led to a multitude of unexpected
