Pathological changes are varied, but spongy degeneration of the neuropil is classic. Research on scrapie, the animal model of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, has demonstrated that this unconventional, slow disease is transmitted via a small (less than 50,000 mW) particle, which is composed principally of protein. How this infectious particle, variably named prion, virino, or slow virus, invokes disease or …
