Epidemiology of Ovine Scrapie in Japan
During the period 1984 to 1987, postmortem brain tissues were obtained in 23 samples of pathologically confirmed ovine scrapie in Japan. Although most of them were collected from Hokkaido, some brain tissues originated from Yamagata, Fukushima and Kanagawa. Occasional incidences of temporal and spatial clustering on anon-familial basis have been reported in the past, each case of which included...
متن کاملTranscriptomic Determinants of Scrapie Prion Propagation in Cultured Ovine Microglia
Susceptibility to infection by prions is highly dependent on the amino acid sequence and host expression of the cellular prion protein (PrPC); however, cellular expression of a genetically susceptible PrPC is insufficient. As an example, it has been shown in cultured cells that permissive and resistant sublines derived from the same parental population often have similar expression levels of Pr...
متن کاملComparison of brain PrPd distribution in ovine BSE and scrapie.
Scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) are both prion diseases affecting ruminants, and these diseases do not share the same public health concerns. Surveillance of the BSE agent in small ruminants has been a great challenge, and the recent identification of diverse prion diseases in ruminants has led to the development of new methods for strain typing. In our study, using immunohis...
متن کاملTransmissibility of caprine scrapie in ovine transgenic mice
BACKGROUND The United States control program for classical ovine scrapie is based in part on the finding that infection is typically spread through exposure to shed placentas from infected ewes. Transmission from goats to sheep is less well described. A suitable rodent model for examining the effect of caprine scrapie isolates in the ovine host will be useful in the ovine scrapie eradication ef...
