Cell Type-Specific Neuroprotective Activity of Untranslocated Prion Protein

BACKGROUND: A key pathogenic role in prion diseases was proposed for a cytosolic form of the prion protein (PrP). However, it is not clear how cytosolic PrP localization influences neuronal viability, with either cytotoxic or anti-apoptotic effects reported in different studies. The cellular mechani...
