Understanding Prion Strains: Evidence from Studies of the Disease Forms Affecting Humans
Prion diseases are a unique group of rare neurodegenerative disorders characterized by tissue deposition of heterogeneous aggregates of abnormally folded protease-resistant prion protein (PrP(Sc)), a broad spectrum of disease phenotypes and a variable efficiency of disease propagation in vivo. The d...
