Effect of enzymatic deimination on the conformation of recombinant prion protein
Deimination is the post-translational conversion of arginine residues to citrulline. It has been implicated as a causative factor in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis and more recently, as a marker of ...

Inspecção do sistema nervoso central em pequenos ruminantes
O Scrapie é uma doença neurodegenerativa fatal que afecta ovinos e caprinos e é a forma mais comum das Encefalopatias Espongiformes Transmissíveis (EET's), que incluem a doença de Creutzfeldt – Jakob (CJD), em humanos, e a Encefalopatia Espongiforme ...

Brain bioenergetics in murine models of scrapie using in vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy
The bioenergetic status of the brain in scrapie mouse models was investigated during the late, clinical phase of the disease, by in vivo phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).

The prion protein gene:a role in mouse embryogenesis?
The neural membrane glycoprotein PrP (prion protein) has a key role in the development of scrapie and related neurodegenerative diseases. During pathogenesis, PrP accumulates in and around cells of the brain from which it can be isolated in a disease ...
