Prion protein fragment (106–126) activates NLRP3 inflammasome and promotes platelet-monocyte/neutrophil interactions, potentially contributing to an inflammatory state

IntroductionPrion diseases are neurodegenerative disorders where infectious prion proteins (PrP) featuring an amyloidogenic amino acid sequence, PrP (106–126), accumulate in the brain leading to neuroinflammation while it can also access circulation by breaching the blood-brain barrier. Platelets ar...
