Anti-PrP Mab 6D11 suppresses PrPSc replication in prion infected myeloid precursor line FDC-P1/22L and in the lymphoreticular system in vivo

The pathogenesis of prion diseases is related to conformational transformation of cellular prion protein (PrPC) into a toxic, infectious, and self-replicating conformer termed PrPSc. Following extracerebral inoculation, the replication of PrPSc is confined for months to years to the lymporeticular s...
