Doenças priônicas humanas ou encefalopatias espongiformes transmissíveis são doenças transmissíveis raras que afetam o sistema nervoso central. Os agentes infecciosos são compostos por uma isoforma anormal de uma proteína da membrana do hospedeiro chamada 'proteína priônica' (PrP). Suas características comuns são uma longa duração de incubação e lesões limitadas ao sistema nervoso central, sem reação inflamatória ou imunológica, mas com acúmulo de uma forma anormal de proteína príon (PrPsc). | |||
