Prion replication in organotypic brain slice cultures is distinct from in vivo inoculation and is species dependent

Abstract Cultured brain slices rapidly replicate murine prions, exhibit prion pathology, and are amenable towards drug discovery, but have not been infected with human prions. As deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) are susceptible to human prions in vivo, here we investigated deer mouse organotypic b...
