Pathological Characterization of TgElk mice injected with brain homogenate from elk with chronic wasting disease

Chronic wasting disease is classified as a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy or prion disease that affects cervids. CSD has been reported in 15 US states, two Canadian provinces, and in imported elk on several farms in Korea. This study, was condeted to examine the molecular biological and pat...
