The prion diseases constitute an unusual group of neurodegenerative disorders. Although they are similar in many ways to other more common diseases, such as Alzheimer disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, they are set apart on the basis of their transmissible nature.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1995
Major advances have been made in prion diseases. Recent data indicate that the prion protein is likely to be a synaptic protein with a functional role in synaptic transmission. An impressive body of evidence suggests that (1) the normal prion protein plays a central role in prion replication; (2) the replication process implies an interaction between ...

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) is a group of rare, sub-acute, fatal neurodegenerative diseases in humans and animals. TSE includes Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker disease, fatal familial insomnia, and Kuru (a disease confined to the Fore linguistic group, a tribe in Papua-New Guinea).

Prion diseases occur in many animal species, most notably in ruminants. While scrapie in sheep has been recognised for three centuries and goat scrapie has been recognised for decades, BSE in cattle is a relatively novel disease which was first diagnosed in the UK in the mid 1980s.

Therapeutische Umschau, 1999
Das Interesse an den Prionkrankheiten und speziell an der häufigsten menschlichen Form, der Creutzfeldt-Jakob Krankheit (CJD), ist zur Zeit aus zwei Gründen groß: 1) Die Bevölkerung möchte begreiflicherweise wissen, ob der Konsum von Rindfleisch eine CJD verursachen kann.

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.

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are diseases of animals and humans that are also termed prion diseases. These diseases are linked together because a normal brain glycoprotein termed the prion protein is converted to a readily detectable protease-resistant isoform.

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.

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 ...
