spongiform teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı
- Like a sponge, porous, full of holes
- Resembling a sponge; soft and porous; porous
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- A fatal, neurodegenerative disease of cattle, which is transmissible to humans through misshaped prion proteins, caused by eating infected tissues
The outbreaks of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease) have limited some traditional uses of cattle for food, for example the eating of brains or spinal cords.
- transmissible spongiform encephalopathy
- Any fatal, incurable degenerative disease of the brain transmitted by prions
- Bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- (mad cow disease) fatal disease affecting the nervous system in cattle, BSE
- bovine spongiform encephalitis
- a fatal disease of cattle that affects the central nervous system; causes staggering and agitation
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- Mad cow disease
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- An infectious degenerative brain disease occurring in cattle. Also called mad cow disease. or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) Fatal neurodegenerative disease of cattle. Symptoms include behavioral changes (e.g., agitation), gradual loss of coordination and locomotive function, and, in advanced stages, weight loss, fine muscular contractions, and abnormal gait. Brain tissue becomes pitted with holes and spongy. Death usually follows within a year. The disease is similar to the neurodegenerative disease of sheep called scrapie. No treatment is known. A BSE epidemic in Britain that began in the mid-1980s is believed to have been caused by the use of cattle feed containing supplements made from ruminant carcasses and trimmings. Hundreds of thousands of infected cattle were slaughtered and the use of animal-derived protein supplements ended. The cause of both BSE and scrapie is attributed to an infectious aberrant protein called a prion. The unusual occurrence of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, another prion-related illness, in young people beginning in the mid-1990s may be linked to eating meat from cattle with BSE
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- a spongiform disease of cattle first identified in Britain in 1986
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- Widely referred to as "mad cow disease," BSE is a chronic degenerative disease affecting the central nervous system of cattle The disease was first diagnosed in 1986 in Great Britain Affected animals may display changes in temperament, such as nervousness or aggression, abnormal posture, incoordination, decreased milk production or loss of body weight despite continued appetite There is no treatment or vaccine to prevent the disease and affected cattle die BSE may have been caused by feeding cattle rendered protein produced from the carcasses of scrapie-infected sheep or cattle with previously unidentified Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE)
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- A disease of cattle (often called 'mad cow disease') caused by an agent that is neither a bacterium or a virus First recognized in 1986 it has a long incubation period
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- Bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or BSE, is also known as "mad cow disease " It is a rare, chronic degenerative disease affecting the brain and central nervous system of cattle Cattle with BSE lose their coordination, develop abnormal posture and experience changes in behavior Clinical symptoms take 4-5 years to develop, followed by death in a period of several weeks to months unless the affected animal is destroyed sooner
- bovine spongiform encephalopathy
- (a k a Mad Cow Disease) A degenerative disease of brain tissue ("encephalopathy") BSE is caused by prions and results in the deposition of amyloid tissue that causes a breakdown of brain tissue leaving the infected brain with a "spongy" ("spongiform") appearance Source : PhRMA Genomics
