Review on PRNP genetics and susceptibility to chronic wasting disease of Cervidae
Veterinary Research, 2021 To date, chronic wasting disease (CWD) is the most infectious form of prion disease affecting several captive, free ranging and wild cervid species. Responsible for marked population declines in North America, its geographical spread is now becoming a ...

First Detection of Chronic Wasting Disease in Moose (Alces alces) in Sweden
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2021 : We report the first detection of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Sweden, in three old female moose (Alces alces). Prions (PrPCWD) were detected in brain but not in lymph nodes. The findings are similar to previously described CWD cases in old moose in
