Chang S, Arifin M, Tahir W, McDonald K, Zeng D, Schatzl H, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2024 Jul; 20(7):e1012370. PMID: 38976748
Prions can exist as different strains that consist of conformational variants of the misfolded, pathogenic prion protein isoform PrPSc. Defined by stably transmissible biological and biochemical properties, strains have been...

Arifin M, Hannaoui S, Ng R, Zeng D, Zemlyankina I, Ahmed-Hassan H, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2024 Jul; 20(7):e1012350. PMID: 38950080
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease affecting deer, elk and moose in North America and reindeer, moose and red deer in Northern Europe. Pathogenesis is driven by the...

Chang S, Hannaoui S, Arifin M, Huang Y, Tang X, Wille H, et al.
Commun Biol . 2023 Nov; 6(1):1162. PMID: 37964018
Infectious prions consist of PrP, a misfolded, aggregation-prone isoform of the host's prion protein. PrP assemblies encode distinct biochemical and biological properties. They harbor a specific profile of PrP species,...

Hannaoui S, Zemlyankina I, Chang S, Arifin M, Beringue V, McKenzie D, et al.
Acta Neuropathol . 2022 Aug; 144(4):767-784. PMID: 35996016
Prions cause infectious and fatal neurodegenerative diseases in mammals. Chronic wasting disease (CWD), a prion disease of cervids, spreads efficiently among wild and farmed animals. Potential transmission to humans of...

Hannaoui S, Triscott E, Duque Velasquez C, Chang S, Arifin M, Zemlyankina I, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2021 Jul; 17(7):e1009795. PMID: 34310662
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease affecting cervids. Polymorphisms in the prion protein gene can result in extended survival of CWD-infected animals. However, the impact of polymorphisms on...

Arifin M, Hannaoui S, Chang S, Thapa S, Schatzl H, Gilch S
Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Mar; 22(5). PMID: 33668798
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease found in both free-ranging and farmed cervids. Susceptibility of these animals to CWD is governed by various exogenous and endogenous factors. Past...

Arifin M, Staskevicius A, Shim S, Huang Y, Fenton H, McLoughlin P, et al.
Mol Ecol . 2020 Aug; 29(20):3830-3840. PMID: 32810895
Polymorphisms within the prion protein gene (Prnp) are an intrinsic factor that can modulate chronic wasting disease (CWD) pathogenesis in cervids. Although wild European reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) were infected...

Hannaoui S, Arifin M, Chang S, Yu J, Gopalakrishnan P, Doh-ura K, et al.
J Neurochem . 2019 Sep; 152(6):727-740. PMID: 31553058
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease of free-ranging and farmed cervids that is highly contagious because of extensive prion shedding and prion persistence in the environment. Previously, cellulose...

Arifin M, Hoglund J, Novobilsky A
Vet Parasitol . 2016 Nov; 232:8-11. PMID: 27890084
The liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, is one of the major parasite threats to livestock industries world-wide. In sheep and cattle, F. hepatica infection is commonly diagnosed using a range of...
