Marked influence of the route of infection on prion strain apparent phenotype in a scrapie transgenic mouse model
Prion strains yield specific neuropathological features including spongiform degeneration and deposition patterns of pathological prion protein. Their invariant regional distribution, following variations in the infection route, has led to the proposal that prions replicate preferentially in defined...
