ABSTRACT Aim Neurodegenerative diseases and disordered eating have become rapidly expanding areas of research. However, research addressing the relationship between the two is lacking. Methods A scoping review guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological framework was completed to synthesise the evidence related to disordered eating behaviours ...

Cellular distribution of the prion protein in palatine tonsils of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) [PDF]
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) that affects members of the Cervidae family, including deer (Odocoileus spp.), elk (Cervus Canadensis spp.), and moose (Alces alces spp.).

Understanding the Phenotypic Heterogeneity Within the Sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease MV1 Subtype
We present the clinical, pathological and prion biophysical features of three atypical cases of the MV1 subtype of sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD). We propose that these heterozygous cases exist on a spectrum ranging from MM1‐like to VV1‐like phenotypes and recommend that subtyping be performed at pH 6.9 to avoid missing atypical or mixed ...

Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...

Mathematical Models for Estimating the Risk of vCJD Transmission [PDF]
We present two different simple models for vCJD transmission by blood transfusion. Both models indicate that transfusions alone are unlikely to cause more than a few infections, unless the number of primary cases increases.

MOG antibody‐associated cortical encephalitis (MOG‐CCE) presents a distinct clinical phenotype characterized by seizure‐dominant onset, unilateral cortical lesions, and favorable immunotherapy response, highlighting the diagnostic and prognostic value of antibody profiling in autoimmune cortical encephalitis.

Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD), the most common human prion disease, is thought to occur when the cellular prion protein (PrPC) spontaneously misfolds and assembles into prion fibrils, culminating in fatal neurodegeneration.

1. A single‐cell analysis was conducted to investigate the transcriptomic changes in cells within focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). 2. Ferroptosis may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of FCD, potentially contributing to cellular damage and epileptogenesis. 3.

Prion diseases are characterized by accumulation of misfolded protein, gliosis, synaptic dysfunction, and ultimately neuronal loss. This sequence, mirroring key features of Alzheimer disease, is modeled well in ME7 prion disease.

ABSTRACT SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is linked to persistent neurological symptoms Post‐Acute Sequelae SARS‐CoV‐2 (neuro‐PASC) and elevated risk of neurodegenerative disease, but molecular events connecting acute viral injury to long‐term CNS dysfunction remain unclear.
