The Zoonotic Potential of Chronic Wasting Disease-A Review

Michael A. Tranulis et al.

Summary: Prion diseases are transmissible neurodegenerative disorders that can be transmitted to humans through consumption of infected ruminant species. The identification of BSE prions as the cause of vCJD sparked a food safety crisis and led to protective measures. CWD continues to spread in North America and the discovery of unrecognized CWD strains in Europe has increased concerns about its risk as a food pathogen.

Novel Prion Strain as Cause of Chronic Wasting Disease in a Moose, Finland

Julianna L. Sun et al.

Summary: Our previous studies found that different strains of prions cause chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Norway and North America cervids, and they respond differently to amino acid variation at residue 226 of the prion protein. This study investigated the properties of newly emergent CWD in moose in Finland using gene-targeted mice transmissions. The findings showed that the strain properties of Finland moose CWD prions are distinct from those previously characterized in Norway CWD, indicating a diverse portfolio of emergent strains in Nordic countries.

Humanized Transgenic Mice Are Resistant to Chronic Wasting Disease Prions From Norwegian Reindeer and Moose

Jonathan D. F. Wadsworth et al.

Summary: This study investigated the zoonotic potential of CWD-infected Norwegian reindeer and moose by inoculating their brain tissue into transgenic mice overexpressing human prion protein. The results showed no evidence of prion transmission, indicating a low zoonotic potential for these isolates.

North American and Norwegian Chronic Wasting Disease Prions Exhibit Different Potential for Interspecies Transmission and Zoonotic Risk

Sandra Pritzkow et al.

Summary: This study investigates the spillover and potential zoonotic transmission of chronic wasting disease (CWD) from various species of cervids. The results suggest that Norwegian CWD prions have a higher potential to infect other animals, while North American CWD prions are more prone to generate human prions.

Chronic wasting disease in Norway-A survey of prion protein gene variation among cervids

Mariella Evelyn Guere et al.

Summary: The susceptibility of cervids to Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in Norway is modulated by variations in the prion protein gene (PRNP), with different species having different levels of susceptibility. The PRNP genetic data indicate considerable susceptibility to CWD among Norwegian cervids, and suggest that PRNP homozygosity may be a risk factor for the atypical CWD observed in moose. The CWD isolates found in Norwegian cervids differ from those previously found in Canada and USA, indicating potential strain dynamics related to PRNP variability.

Summary: This study investigates the spatial and time-relevant overlaps between CWD-infected reindeer and sheep using GPS data. The results show an overlap in area use between the two species, but no prions were detected in the GALT of the investigated sheep.

Sensitive protein misfolding cyclic amplification of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease prions is strongly seed and substrate dependent

Maxime Belondrade et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the amplification of PrPTSE from human sCJD brain samples in different substrates using PMCA, revealing the potential of bank vole PrP substrate in amplifying all sCJD subtypes. In contrast, PMCA in human PrP substrates led to molecular shifts in PrPTSE, with increased permissiveness of V129 PrP substrate to sCJD prion amplification. The combination of PMCA sensitivities and PrPTSE electrophoretic profiles confirmed the classification of 4 distinct major sCJD prion strains. Additionally, the sensitivity required to detect VV2 sCJD prions in cerebrospinal fluid was achieved.

Second passage of chronic wasting disease of mule deer to sheep by intracranial inoculation compared to classical scrapie

Eric D. Cassmann et al.

Summary: The study found that the phenotype of CWD in sheep may not be distinguishable from scrapie in sheep, showing similarities and overlap in their characteristics. This indicates that current detection techniques may have difficulty differentiating between CWD and scrapie in sheep under natural conditions.

Understanding Intra-Species and Inter-Species Prion Conversion and Zoonotic Potential Using Protein Misfolding Cyclic Amplification

Alexander H. Peden et al.

Summary: Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders that can infect humans and animals. While some animal prion diseases are believed to pose little risk to human health, the zoonotic potential of other animal prion diseases remains uncertain. Cell-free prion protein conversion assays, such as PMCA, are useful tools in studying prion propagation mechanisms and assessing the risk of animal prions to humans.

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.

Experimental Oronasal Transmission of Chronic Wasting Disease Agent from White-Tailed Deer to Suffolk Sheep

Summary: The study investigated the host range of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) by inoculating Suffolk sheep with brain homogenate from CWD-positive white-tailed deer, leading to immunoreactivity against the misfolded prion protein in lymphoid tissue in one out of seven sheep after 60 months, as confirmed by mouse bioassay.

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.

Review on PRNP genetics and susceptibility to chronic wasting disease of Cervidae

Katayoun Moazami-Goudarzi et al.

Summary: Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is highly infectious and affects captive, free-ranging, and wild cervid species. Polymorphisms in the prion protein gene (PRNP) play a significant role in susceptibility and propagation rates, with genetic differences potentially affecting disease progression. CWD poses a zoonotic risk due to its ability to cross species barriers.
