Transmission of the atypical/Nor98 scrapie agent to Suffolk sheep with VRQ/ARQ, ARQ/ARQ, and ARQ/ARR genotypes

Eric D. Cassmann et al.

Summary: This study investigated the transmission of Atypical/Nor98 scrapie in three genotypes of Suffolk sheep and found that sheep with ARQ/ARQ and ARQ/ARR genotypes developed the disease, while one sheep with the VRQ/ARQ genotype also had detectable PrPSc. Additionally, it was observed that sheep with early accumulation of PrPSc in the cerebellum also had concurrent retinal PrPSc deposits.

Adaptive selection of a prion strain conformer corresponding to established North American CWD during propagation of novel emergent Norwegian strains in mice expressing elk or deer prion protein

Jifeng Bian et al.

Summary: The study shows that CWD in Norwegian reindeer and moose is caused by novel prion strains with distinct properties from North American CWD. These Norwegian prions have the potential to produce adapted strains with improved fitness for contagious transmission. This finding has implications for risk analyses and management of emergent European CWD.

Chronic wasting disease in Europe: new strains on the horizon

Michael Andreas Tranulis et al.

Summary: Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders caused by misfolded prions, which can be transmitted directly or indirectly. CWD cases have been found in deer and elk, and have emerged in Norway and other Nordic countries, posing a threat to European cervid populations.
