TDP‐43 Aggregation: The Healthy‐Toxic Balance of the Prion‐Like Domain

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 40, 17 July 2026.
TDP‐43 function relies on a delicate balance between reversible phase‐separated states and irreversible aggregation. Under physiological conditions, TDP‐43 forms dynamic droplets and oligomers that support normal cellular functions. In pathological contexts, this balance shifts toward aberrant aggregation, leading to toxic species.

The interaktion of the cellular prion protein (PrPc) with relevant proteins of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yes, 2014
Previous studies indicate an important role for the cellular prion Protein (PrPc) in the development of Alzheimer's disease pathology. In the present study the interaction of PrPc with Alzheimer relevant proteins such as APP, BACE, tau and phosphorylated

Trapping Prion Protein in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Impairs PrPC Maturation and Prevents PrPSc Accumulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
The conversion of the normal cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) into the abnormal scrapie isoform (PrP(Sc)) is a key feature of prion diseases. The pathogenic mechanisms and the subcellular sites of the conversion are complex and not completely understood.

Cellular prion protein (PrPc) and hypoxia: true to each other in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
The cellular prion protein (PrPc) and hypoxia appear to be tightly intertwined. Beneficial effects of PrPc on neuronal survival under hypoxic conditions such as focal cerebral ischemia are strongly supported.

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.

The Molecular Pathology of Prion Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Prion diseases, or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative disorders. Uniquely, they may present as sporadic, inherited, or infectious forms, all of which involve conversion of the normal ...

LPS-induced systemic inflammation reveals an immunomodulatory role for the prion protein at the blood-brain interface

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2017
Background The cellular prion protein (PrPC) is an evolutionary conserved protein abundantly expressed not only in the central nervous system but also peripherally including the immune system.

The L108I polymorphism in mouse prion protein drives spontaneous disease and enhances transmission of atypical and classical prion strains

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
A single amino acid change (L108I) combined with PrP overexpression drives spontaneous atypical prion formation in mice, enabling also efficient propagation of diverse prion strains. This model allows studying how spontaneous prion diseases arise and provides powerful tools for investigating strain emergence, transmission barriers, and mechanisms ...
