Prion protein lacks robust cytoprotective activity in cultured cells

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The physiological function of the cellular prion protein (PrP<sup>C</sup>) remains unknown. However, PrP<sup>C </sup>has been reported to possess a cytoprotective activity that prevents death of neurons and ot...
