If rodents challenged
intracerebrally with BSE or vCJD agents mirror the pathophysiology
of muscle targeting in ovine BSE and human
vCJD to a similar extent, this would point to muscles as
reservoirs for infectivity in these diseases. Thus, our findings
emphasize the need for further assessment of the risks for
public health that may result from prions in skeletal muscle
I read this and its quite thought provking.
