The study analyzed the seeding activity of misfolded tau protein in Alzheimer's disease and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease patients and provides evidence for the existence of different tau assemblies supported by differences in cellular toxicity and morphology of thioflavin T‐positive real‐time quaking‐induced conversion products.

A blood miRNA signature associates with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease diagnosis
Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is a rapidly progressive dementia. No clinical blood tests are available for diagnosis. The authors identified three miRNAs in whole-blood that are downregulated in sCJD patients, and discriminate sCJD from ...

Neuroprotection trial design in progressive supranuclear palsy: challenges and solutions
Abstract INTRODUCTION We review the specific challenges posed to neuroprotective trial design by progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a rare disorder difficult to diagnose and to assess quantitatively. METHODS Focusing on reducing the size and cost of trials, we review elements of PSP neuroprotection trial methodology and formulate a new minimum ...

Premortem diagnosis of pathologically confirmed sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease
Sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease should be considered in any case of rapid neuropsychiatric decline. While neuropathological examination of a brain biopsy specimen remains the only definitive diagnostic method and real‐time quaking‐induced conversion ...

Possible alignment of the EU BSE surveillance with the new WOAH provisions
Abstract The European Commission requested the assessment of the capacity of the surveillance provisions of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to detect bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) cases (C‐, H‐ and L‐type) in the European Union (EU) and to propose if any current EU surveillance provisions should be kept.
