Plasma biomarkers in CJD reveal multisystem involvement, with neuronal injury markers showing strong discriminative performance and vascular proteins indicating blood–brain barrier dysfunction. In asymptomatic PRNP mutation carriers, biomarker changes are minimal and emerge mainly near disease onset ABSTRACT Background Plasma markers of neuronal injury

Anti-N-methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis Mimicking Sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease
Objectives: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis and sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD) share similar clinical features. Here, we present two unusual cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis who were misdiagnosed as sCJD at first ...

Prion protein amyloidosis with divergent phenotype associated with two novel nonsense mutations in PRNP [PDF]
Stop codon mutations in the gene encoding the prion protein (PRNP) are very rare and have thus far only been described in two patients with prion protein cerebral amyloid angiopathy (PrP-CAA).

Incidence of Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease in a Tertiary Care Referral Center in Mexico City
Abstract Background Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD) is a progressive, irreversible, and fatal disease associated with the misfolding of a protein in the central nervous system. Several surveillance programs emerged worldwide after the epidemic of the early 2000s. In Mexico, information about its epidemiology is scarce.

Selective vulnerability to atrophy in sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease
Objective Identification of brain regions susceptible to quantifiable atrophy in sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (sCJD) should allow for improved understanding of disease pathophysiology and development of structural biomarkers that might be useful in

This study investigates the sleep‐related manifestations of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) by analyzing electroencephalography (EEG) and polysomnography (PSG) findings in a cohort of seven patients diagnosed between 2013 and 2023. Although only three patients initially reported sleep‐related complaints, comprehensive assessments revealed that all ...
