IPEC-J2 cells are porcine intestinal columnar epithelial cells that were isolated from
neonatal piglet mid-jejunum. This cell line forms polarized monolayers with high …

The essential role of the cellular prion protein (PrP C) in prion disorders such as Creutzfeldt–
Jakob disease is well documented. Moreover, evidence is accumulating that PrP C may act …

Prion protein (PrP) protects neural cells against oxidative stress, hypoxia, ischemia, and
hypoglycemia. In the present study we confirm that cultured PrP‐deficient neurons are more …

A number of prion diseases affect humans, including Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease; most of
these are due to genetic mutations in the affected individual and occur sporadically, but …

Prion protein (PrPc) has been previously reported to be involved in gastric cancer (GC)
development and progression. However, the association between expression of PrPc and …

The cellular prion protein (PrPC) is well-known for its involvement, under its pathogenic
protease-resistant form (PrPSc), in a group of neurodegenerative diseases, known as prion …

The present study was undertaken to identify proteins interacting with PrPC that could
provide new insights into its physiological functions and pathological role. Human PrPC was …

The neuronal perturbations in Alzheimer's disease are attributed to the formation of
extracellular amyloid-β (Aβ) neuritic plaques, composed predominantly of the neurotoxic Aβ …

The 67 kDa high affinity laminin receptor (67LR) is a non-integrin cell surface receptor for
laminin, the major component of basement membranes. Interactions between 67LR and …

Abstract The 37/67 kDa laminin receptor (LR) is a non-integrin protein, which binds both
laminin-1 of the extracellular matrix and prion proteins, that hold a central role in prion …
