  1. This is a very surprising finding which may suggest that the incidence of BSE-caused CJD is about twice what was thought... this is just over 100 people so far.

  2. This is an interesting study. To add to the horizon of prion diseasespathogenesis please do not miss recent Neurobiol Lipids article"The prion protein and cellular cholesterol homeostasis" [ FullText
