immune system
abnormal spleen morphology ( J:126777 )
• all mice inoculated with brain homogenates from Prnptm2(PRNP*129M)Tkit Tg(Prnp-PRNP*129M)1Tkit mice that succumb to sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 prion infection develop prion protein deposits in the spleen
decreased susceptibility to prion infection ( J:105882 , J:126777 )
• mice are not susceptible to bovine spongiform encephalopathy prion infection (J:105882)
• incubation period following infection with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob MM1 prions is 542 and 648 days for 2 mice compared to 467+/-24 days for Prnptm2(PRNP*129M)Tkit homozygotes (J:126777)
• incubation period following infection with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 prions is 312+/-7 days (J:126777)
increased susceptibility to prion infection ( J:126777 )
• incubation period following infection with plaque-type dura matter graft-associated Creutzfeldt-Jakob (patient KR and KD) prions is 259+/-6 days and 304+/-13 days compared to 420+/-10 days and 398+/-10 days, respectively, in Prnptm5(PRNP*129)Tkit/ Prnptm5(PRNP*129)Tkit Tg(Prnp-PRNP*)1Tkit mice

nervous system
abnormal brain morphology ( J:126777 )
• mice are more susceptible to infection with non-plaque-type dura matter graft-associated Creutzfeldt-Jakob and sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 than Prnptm2(PRNP*129M)Tkit homozygotes
• however, intraperitoneal injection of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 did not produce prion protein deposits in the spleen

hematopoietic system
abnormal spleen morphology ( J:126777 )
• all mice inoculated with brain homogenates from Prnptm2(PRNP*129M)Tkit Tg(Prnp-PRNP*129M)1Tkit mice that succumb to sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 prion infection develop prion protein deposits in the spleen

abnormal susceptibility to infection ( J:126777 )
• incubation period following infection with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 prions is 183+/-5 days

decreased susceptibility to prion infection ( J:105882 )
• mice are not susceptible to either bovine spongiform encephalopathy or variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob prion infection

nervous system
abnormal brain morphology ( J:126777 )
• following infection with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob MM1 prion, mice exhibit diffuse synaptic-type prion protein deposits
• following infection with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2 prion, mice develop small plaque-type prion protein deposits in the white matter and granular to diffuse synaptic-type deposits in the gray matter
• following infection with plaque-type dura matter graft-associated Creutzfeldt-Jakob, mice exhibit small plaque-type prion protein deposits in the cerebral white matter and granular to diffuse synaptic-type deposits in the gray matter similar to those observed in mice infected with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob VV2
