Abstract: The cerebellar lesions of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)‐infected guinea pigs were characterized as severe atrophy of the cerebellar cortex associated with the loss of granule cells, decrease in the width of the molecular layer, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13567-019-0718-z
Abstract: Scrapie in goats has been known since 1942, the archetype of prion diseases in which only prion protein (PrP) in misfolded state (PrPSc) acts as infectious agent with fatal consequence. Emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy… read more here.
