- 64. A member noted that at the recent Neuroprion meeting,
a study was presented showing that in transgenic mice BSE passaged in sheep
may be more virulent and infectious to a wider range of species than bovine
derived BSE.
-
- Other work presented suggested that BSE and bovine amyloidotic
spongiform encephalopathy (BASE) MAY BE RELATED. A mutation had been identified
in the prion protein gene in an AMERICAN BASE CASE THAT WAS SIMILAR IN
NATURE TO A MUTATION FOUND IN CASES OF SPORADIC CJD.

-
- Bovine Amyloid Spongiform Encephalopathy (BASE) is an
atypical BSE strain discovered recently in Italy, and similar or different
atypical BSE cases were also reported in other countries. The infectivity
and phenotypes of these atypical BSE strains in humans are unknown.
-
- In collaboration with Pierluigi Gambetti, as well as
Maria Caramelli and her co-workers, we have inoculated transgenic mice
expressing human prion protein with brain homogenates from BASE or BSE
infected cattle. Our data shows that about half of the BASE-inoculated
mice became infected with an average incubation time of about 19 months;
in contrast, none of the BSE-inoculated mice appear to be infected after
more than 2 years.
-
- *** These results indicate that BASE is transmissible
to humans and suggest that BASE is more virulent than classical BSE in
humans. ***

- I lost my mother to hvCJD (Heidenhain Variant CJD). I
would like to comment on the CDC's attempts to monitor the occurrence of
emerging forms of CJD. Asante, Collinge et al [1] have reported that BSE
transmission to the 129-methionine genotype can lead to an alternate phenotype
that is indistinguishable from type 2 PrPSc, the commonest sporadic CJD.
However, CJD and all human TSEs are not reportable nationally. CJD and
all human TSEs must be made reportable in every state and internationally.
I hope that the CDC does not continue to expect us to still believe that
the 85%+ of all CJD cases which are sporadic are all spontaneous, without
route/source. We have many TSEs in the USA in both animal and man. CWD
in deer/elk is spreading rapidly and CWD does transmit to mink, ferret,
cattle, and squirrel monkey by intracerebral inoculation. With the known
incubation periods in other TSEs, oral transmission studies of CWD may
take much longer. Every victim/family of CJD/TSEs should be asked about
route and source of this agent. To prolong this will only spread the agent
and needlessly expose others. In light of the findings of Asante and Collinge
et al, there should be drastic measures to safeguard the medical and surgical
arena from sporadic CJDs and all human TSEs. I only ponder how many sporadic
