That's why I expressed some doubt earlier as to whether or not the immune system even recognizes Prions (there's thought both ways on that, as I have learned). I decided that perhaps it did, but then had to scrutinize why it might be that malfolded Prions (the infectuous form, of course) might not be recognized, even if so. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

I would guess that, like cancer, prions crop up and are disposed of an a regular basis, all without our knowledge. The ability for the cellular "machinery" to go sideways and produce a mis-coded protein cannot be new. <br /><br />Prions seem to be rather too difficult to track in living creatures for researchers to make sweeping claims about their detection and removal at very low levels. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
