Preventive or promotive effects of PRNP polymorphic heterozygosity on the onset of prion disease
The polymorphic heterozygosity of PRNP at codon 129 or 219 prevents the onset of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD). We investigated the association between polymorphic genotypes at codon 129 or 219 and comprehensive prion disease onset using non-CJD as a reference. EK heterozygotes at codon...
