Current Challenges in TSE Research: Detection, Treatment, and Prevention Strategies

Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs) are a unique and formidable class of neurodegenerative disorders caused by prions—misfolded proteins capable of propagating their abnormal structure. These diseases, which include Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), Kuru, and Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), pose significant challenges to researchers due to their complex biology, resistance to traditional inactivation methods, and lack of effective … Read more
