The Role of the Gut Microbiota in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson's Disease
It is well-recognized that the gut microbiota (GM) is crucial for gut function, metabolism, and energy cycles. The GM also has effects on neurological outcomes via many mechanisms, such as metabolite production and the gut-brain axis.

The Spectrum of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies
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.

State-of-the-art review of goat TSE in the European Union, with special emphasis on PRNP genetics and epidemiology [PDF]
Scrapie is a fatal, neurodegenerative disease of sheep and goats. It is also the earliest known member in the family of diseases classified as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) or prion diseases, which includes Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in ...

Transcriptional analysis implicates endoplasmic reticulum stress in bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal, transmissible, neurodegenerative disease of cattle. To date, the disease process is still poorly understood.

Pruritus is a common feature in sheep infected with the BSE agent. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The variability in the clinical or pathological presentation of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) in sheep, such as scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), has been attributed to prion protein genotype, strain ...

Possible alignment of the EU BSE surveillance with the new WOAH provisions. [PDF]
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.

The mechanism by which microRNAs (miRNAs) modulate innate immunity and autophagy has not been fully elucidated in Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) infections. In this study, we identified that miR-199a inhibited key innate immune responses and autophagy in

BSE infectivity in jejunum, ileum and ileocaecal junction of incubating cattle [PDF]
To establish bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) public health protection measures it is important to precisely define the cattle tissues considered as specified risk materials (SRM).
