Distribution of prion protein in German patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is different from that in Japanese patients.

Abstract:

:We investigated the distribution of prion protein (PrP) in 14 German patients with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and compared it with that observed in Japanese patients. Immunohistochemical study revealed diffuse gray matter stainings including synaptic structures in all cases. In addition, 4 patients showed plaque-type deposition which was very rarely observed among sporadic Japanese patients without known mutation of the PrP gene but with valine at codon 129. A higher incidence of PrP plaques in German sporadic CJD may be related to the racial difference in the PrP gene.
