mBio
. 2024 Oct;
15(11):e0272124.
PMID: 39440977
Importance: Prions from cattle with bovine spongiform encephalopathy have transmitted to humans, whereas scrapie from sheep and goats likely has not, suggesting that some prions can cross species barriers more...

. 2023 Sep;
19(9):e1011632.
PMID: 37669293
Prion diseases are a group of inevitably fatal neurodegenerative disorders affecting numerous mammalian species, including Sapiens. Prions are composed of PrPSc, the disease specific conformation of the host encoded prion...

Block A, Shikiya R, Eckland T, Kincaid A, Walters R, Ma J, et al.
PLoS Pathog
. 2021 Jul;
17(7):e1009765.
PMID: 34260664
Prions are comprised solely of PrPSc, the misfolded self-propagating conformation of the cellular protein, PrPC. Synthetic prions are generated in vitro from minimal components and cause bona fide prion disease...

. 2020 Sep;
5(5).
PMID: 32878935
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is an emerging and fatal contagious prion disease that affects cervids, including mule deer, white-tailed deer, black-tailed deer, red deer reindeer, elk, and moose. CWD prions...

Bourkas M, Arshad H, Al-Azzawi Z, Halgas O, Shikiya R, Mehrabian M, et al.
J Biol Chem
. 2019 Feb;
294(13):4911-4923.
PMID: 30705093
Prions are infectious protein aggregates that cause several fatal neurodegenerative diseases. Prion research has been hindered by a lack of cellular paradigms for studying the replication of prions from different...

Eckland T, Shikiya R, Bartz J
PLoS Pathog
. 2018 Oct;
14(10):e1007323.
PMID: 30335854
Prion diseases are caused by a misfolded isoform of the prion protein, PrPSc. Prion strains are hypothesized to be encoded by strain-specific conformations of PrPSc and prions can interfere with...

Shikiya R, Langenfeld K, Eckland T, Trinh J, Holec S, Mathiason C, et al.
PLoS Pathog
. 2017 Mar;
13(3):e1006298.
PMID: 28355274
Prion strains are characterized by strain-specific differences in neuropathology but can also differ in incubation period, clinical disease, host-range and tissue tropism. The hyper (HY) and drowsy (DY) strains of...

Langenfeld K, Shikiya R, Kincaid A, Bartz J
J Virol
. 2016 Apr;
90(12):5715-23.
PMID: 27053546
Unlabelled: When multiple prion strains are inoculated into the same host, they can interfere with each other. Strains with long incubation periods can suppress conversion of strains with short incubation...

PLoS One
. 2015 Feb;
10(2):e0117935.
PMID: 25642714
The key event in the pathogenesis of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies is a template-dependent misfolding event where an infectious isoform of the prion protein (PrPSc) comes into contact with native...

Prion
. 2014 Dec;
8(6):415-20.
PMID: 25482601
Prion diseases are fatal transmissible neurodegenerative disorders that affect animals including humans. The kinetics of prion infectivity and PrP(Sc) accumulation can differ between prion strains and within a single strain...
