Prion protein lacks robust cytoprotective activity in cultured cells

BACKGROUND: The physiological function of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) remains unknown. However, PrP(C )has been reported to possess a cytoprotective activity that prevents death of neurons and other cells after a toxic stimulus. To explore this effect further, we attempted to reproduce sever...
