Understanding the Phenotypic Heterogeneity Within the Sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease MV1 Subtype
Neuropathology 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 ...
