    Description: Scrapie-associated fibrils, first observed in brains of scrapie-infected mice, were also observed in scrapie-infected hamsters and monkeys, in humans with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and in kuru-infected monkeys. These fibrils were not found in a comprehensive series of control brains from humans and animals affected with central nervous system disorders resulting in histopathologies, ultrastructural features, or disease symptoms similar to those of scrapie, kuru, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. These fibrils are also found in preclinical scrapie and in the spleens of scrapie-infected mice; they are a specific marker for the "unconventional" slow virus diseases, and may be the etiological agent.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Merz, P A -- Rohwer, R G -- Kascsak, R -- Wisniewski, H M -- Somerville, R A -- Gibbs, C J Jr -- Gajdusek, D C -- AGO4220/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jul 27;225(4660):437-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6377496" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1982-09-10
    Description: Scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometry was used to analyze the elemental content of neurofibrillary tangle (NFT)-bearing and NFT-free neurons within the Sommer's sector (H1 region) of the hippocampus in Guamanian Chamorros with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and parkinsonism-dementia and in neurologically normal controls. Preliminary data indicate prominent accumulation of aluminum within the nuclear region and perikaryal cytoplasm of NFT-bearing hippocampal neurons, regardless of the underlying neurological diagnosis. These findings further extend the association between intraneuronal aluminum and NFT formation and support the hypothesis that environmental factors are related to the neurodegenerative changes seen in the Chamorro population.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perl, D P -- Gajdusek, D C -- Garruto, R M -- Yanagihara, R T -- Gibbs, C J -- AG-01415/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1982 Sep 10;217(4564):1053-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7112111" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The serums of some patients with subacute spongiform encephalopathies contain an autoantibody in higher titer against a normal fibrillar protein within the axon of mature central neurons in culture. The morphological features of this neurofilament, as demonstrated by immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase staining, and the partial characterization of the antibody are described. The detection of this hetero-specific autoantibody is the first evidence of an immune reaction in the spongiform encephalopathies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sotelo, J -- Gibbs, C J Jr -- Gajdusek, D C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1980 Oct 10;210(4466):190-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6997994" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Four clones were isolated from an adult human brain complementary DNA library with an oligonucleotide probe corresponding to the first 20 amino acids of the beta peptide of brain amyloid from Alzheimer's disease. The open reading frame of the sequenced clone coded for 97 amino acids, including the known amino acid sequence of this polypeptide. The 3.5-kilobase messenger RNA was detected in mammalian brains and human thymus. The gene is highly conserved in evolution and has been mapped to human chromosome 21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goldgaber, D -- Lerman, M I -- McBride, O W -- Saffiotti, U -- Gajdusek, D C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Feb 20;235(4791):877-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3810169" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The distribution of cells containing messenger RNA that encodes amyloid beta protein was determined in hippocampi and in various cortical regions from cynomolgus monkeys, normal humans, and patients with Alzheimer's disease by in situ hybridization. Both 35S-labeled RNA antisense and sense probes to amyloid beta protein messenger RNA were used to ensure specific hybridization. Messenger RNA for amyloid beta protein was expressed in a subset of neurons in the prefrontal cortex from monkeys, normal humans, and patients with Alzheimer's disease. This messenger RNA was also present in the neurons of all the hippocampal fields from monkeys, normal humans and, although to a lesser extent in cornu ammonis 1, patients with Alzheimer's disease. The distribution of amyloid beta protein messenger RNA was similar to that of the neurofibrillary tangles of Alzheimer's disease in some regions, but the messenger RNA was also expressed in other neurons that are not usually involved in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bahmanyar, S -- Higgins, G A -- Goldgaber, D -- Lewis, D A -- Morrison, J H -- Wilson, M C -- Shankar, S K -- Gajdusek, D C -- AG05131/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- MH00519/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- NS23038/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Jul 3;237(4810):77-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3299701" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: With the recently cloned complementary DNA probe, lambda Am4 for the chromosome 21 gene encoding brain amyloid polypeptide (beta amyloid protein) of Alzheimer's disease, leukocyte DNA from three patients with sporadic Alzheimer's disease and two patients with karyotypically normal Down syndrome was found to contain three copies of this gene. Because a small region of chromosome 21 containing the ets-2 gene is duplicated in patients with Alzheimer's disease, as well as in karyotypically normal Down syndrome, duplication of a subsection of the critical segment of chromosome 21 that is duplicated in Down syndrome may be the genetic defect in Alzheimer's disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Delabar, J M -- Goldgaber, D -- Lamour, Y -- Nicole, A -- Huret, J L -- de Grouchy, J -- Brown, P -- Gajdusek, D C -- Sinet, P M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Mar 13;235(4794):1390-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2950593" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Unexplained debilitating dementia or encephalopathy occurs frequently in adults and children with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Brains from 15 individuals with AIDS and encephalopathy were examined by Southern analysis and in situ hybridization for the presence of human T-cell leukemia (lymphotropic) virus type III (HTLV-III), the virus believed to be the causative agent of AIDS. HTLV-III DNA was detected in the brains of five patients, and viral-specific RNA was detected in four of these. In view of these findings and the recent demonstration of morphologic and genetic relatedness between HTLV-III and visna virus, a lentivirus that causes a chronic degenerative neurologic disease in sheep, HTLV-III should be evaluated further as a possible cause of AIDS encephalopathy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shaw, G M -- Harper, M E -- Hahn, B H -- Epstein, L G -- Gajdusek, D C -- Price, R W -- Navia, B A -- Petito, C K -- O'Hara, C J -- Groopman, J E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1985 Jan 11;227(4683):177-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2981429" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: [Auszug] A PERIODICITY is often a matter of crucial interest, and concern to science. Investigators in many disciplines, faced with the fact of non-recurrence, or their inability to recreate phenomena in which they are interested, are confronted with the problem of recording, preserving, and retrieving data ...
