| bovine spongiform encephalopathy | A new disease of cattle, first reported in 1986 in Great Britain, characterised clinically by apprehensive behaviour, hyperesthesia, and ataxia and histopathologically by spongiform changes in the gray-matter neuropil of the brain stem; it is thought to be caused by an agent, possibly a prion, similar to that observed as the cause of scrapie. Synonym: mad cow disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| spongiform encephalopathy | An encephalopathy characterised by vacuolation within nerve and glial cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute spongiform encephalopathy | A form of spongiform encephalopathy that is associated with a "slow virus", which to date has not been adequately described, is transmissible, and has a rapidly progressive, fatal course; e.g., Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, kuru, Gerstmann-Straussler syndrome, scrapie. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalopathy, bovine spongiform | Scrapie-like neurological disorder of cattle. The infection appears to be caused by the consumption of scrapie-infected ruminant-derived protein (prions). (12 Dec 1998) |
| transmissible mink encephalopathy | <virology> Unconventional type of slow virus infection, similar to kuru, scrapie and Creutzfeldt Jakob disease. See: prion. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (18 Nov 1997) |
| bovine spongiform encephalitis | <pathology> A neuro-degenerative disease found in domestic cattle which is related to a number of other similar diseases found in other animal species, including humans. The most well-known of these other diseases are scrapie, found in sheep, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, found in humans. The family of diseases is caused by an abnormally-configured protein called a prion. The function of the protein in its normal configuration is not certain. The diseases are similar to Alzheimer's disease in humans, except the progressive loss of brain function is more rapid. (09 Oct 1997) |
| spongiform | 1. Soft, and full of cavities; of an open, loose, pliable texture; as, a spongy excrescence; spongy earth; spongy cake; spongy bones. 2. Wet; drenched; soaked and soft, like sponge; rainy. "Spongy April." 3. Having the quality of imbibing fluids, like a sponge. <chemistry> Spongy lead, sponge lead. See Sponge. Spongy platinum. See Platinum. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| spongiform encephalopathies | A group of diseases characterised by long incubation and fatal progressive course with characteristic spongiform degeneration of grey matter of the cortex. The two main human diseases are kuru and Creutzfeldt Jakob disease. Diseases such as scrapie, mink encephalopathy and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) are considered to be similar. Controversy still surround the causative agent, the two main theories being slow viruses or prions. See: Gerstmann Straussler Scheinker syndrome. (18 Nov 1997) |
| gastroenteritis, transmissible, of swine | A condition of chronic gastroenteritis in adult pigs and fatal gastroenteritis in piglets caused by a coronavirus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gastroenteritis virus, porcine transmissible | A species of coronavirus causing a fatal disease to pigs under 3 weeks old. (12 Dec 1998) |
| porcine transmissible gastroenteritis | A rapidly spreading disease of swine, caused by a coronavirus (of the family Coronaviridae) and characterised by severe diarrhoea and vomiting; case fatality rate in pigs younger than 10 days is high; in older pigs it is low. Synonym: porcine transmissible gastroenteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transmissible | Capable of being transmitted (carried across) from one person to another, as a transmissible disease, an infectious or contagious disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transmissible dementia | <infectious disease> A very rare form of encephalopathy thought to be caused by a virus (slow-virus), termed a prion. There is little known about the mode of transmission. Human to human transmission has occurred through the use of contaminated brain electrodes and transplantation of infected tissues. The agent can be recovered in the CSF of infected individuals. Standard disinfectants such as formalin, heat, exposure to ultraviolet light or X-rays is ineffective to inactivate the virus. Autoclaving to at least 132 degrees C. Or immersion in 4% sodium hydroxide or 10% sodium hypochlorite solution for 1 hour is recommended for sterilisation. The disease occurs primarily in adults, with peak incidence in the late 50's. Infection results in dementia, myoclonus, ataxia and other neurologic symptoms. The disease progresses rapidly to coma and death after a 3 to 12 month illness. There is no known cure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| transmissible enteritis | An acute or chronic disease of young turkeys caused by bluecomb virus, with diarrhoea, loss of weight, and often cyanosis of the head. Synonym: mud fever, transmissible enteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transmissible gastroenteritis of swine | A rapidly spreading disease of swine, caused by a coronavirus (of the family Coronaviridae) and characterised by severe diarrhoea and vomiting; case fatality rate in pigs younger than 10 days is high; in older pigs it is low. Synonym: porcine transmissible gastroenteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transmissible spongiform encephalopathy |
A disease that can be transmitted from one animal to another and will produce changes in the brain that are appear similarly to a sponge (ie some of the cells are clear when seen down the microscope)
