Review on prion diseases in animals with emphasis to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy
Veterinary World, 2012 Prion diseases are known as Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE). These are degenerative brain disorders characterized by tiny microscopic holes that give the brain 'spongy' appearance.

The Spectrum of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies
Intervirology, 1997 Since the first description by A.M. Jakob and H.G. Creutzfeldt, five human diseases have been identified as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE). The disease bearing these authors' name, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) occurs sporadically, may be transmitted and has a genetic basis in 10-15% of all cases.

Susceptibilities of Nonhuman Primates to Chronic Wasting Disease
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, or prion disease, that affects deer, elk, and moose. Human susceptibility to CWD remains unproven despite likely exposure to CWD-infected cervids.
