Investigating Disordered Eating Behaviours Among Individuals Living With Neurodegenerative Disease: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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

open access: yesNeuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, Volume 52, Issue 3, June 2026.
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 ...

Enhanced Sensitivity of a Modified Quaking‐Induced Conversion Diagnostic Test for the Broad Detection of Sporadic and Inherited Prion Diseases: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 5, Page 1303-1314, May 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody‐Associated Cerebral Cortical Encephalitis: A Comparative Study With Antibody‐Negative and Non‐MOG Antibody‐Positive Cortical Encephalitis in Chinese Adults

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.

Characterisation and prion transmission study in mice with genetic reduction of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease risk gene Stx6

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
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.

Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing reveals ferroptosis as a potential contributor to the pathogenesis of focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.

Analysis of the hippocampal proteome in ME7 prion disease reveals a predominant astrocytic signature and highlights the brain-restricted production of clusterin in chronic neurodegeneration

open access: yes, 2013
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.

When Viruses Talk through Extracellular Vesicles: a New Perspective on Sars‐Cov‐2‐Induced Neurodegeneration

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.
