Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Neurology
  • Zoonotic Diseases
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are a group of fatal neurodegenerative diseases affecting various animal species.
  • Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle is well-known due to its link with variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans.
  • TSEs have been documented in sheep, goats, mink, deer, elk, cats, and exotic ungulates, primarily in captive animals.

Purpose:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of animal TSEs.
  • To describe the symptoms, epidemiology, and pathology of various animal TSEs.
  • To explore the common causative factors and interspecies transmission hypotheses of animal TSEs.

Summary:

  • This paper reviews the key aspects of TSEs in animals.
