Paradoxical Role of Prion Protein Aggregates in Redox-Iron Induced Toxicity
BACKGROUND: Imbalance of iron homeostasis has been reported in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob-disease (sCJD) affected human and scrapie infected animal brains, but the contribution of this phenotype to disease associated neurotoxicity is unclear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using cell models of fami...
