Abstract excerpt
In previous studies we showed that C57BL mice injected stereotactically in the cerebellum with the 22L scrapie strain had a significantly shorter incubation period than those injected with the same agent in other brain regions. In mice injected in the cerebellum, vacuolization was limited to the cerebellum, medulla and mesencephalon, whereas injection into forebrain regions resulted in vacuolization in all brain...
