From: Rapidly progressive dementia with thalamic degeneration and peculiar cortical prion protein immunoreactivity, but absence of proteinase K resistant PrP: a new disease entity?

Figure 5

Western blot analysis of PrPres in frontal cortex (FC) or occipital cortex (OC) of cases 1 and 2 compared to cortical samples of a variably protease sensitive prionopathy (VPSPr) case and a sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease of the VV2 subtype (sCJD (VV2)). Sample loadings (μl of a 10% w/v brain homogenate) are shown for all lanes. Sample loading in square brackets ([]) denote volumes concentrated prior to loading. The positions molecular mass of marker proteins (Markers) and the low molecular mass PrPres characteristic of VPSPr are given in kilodaltons (kDa). (a) and (b) show short (3 minutes) and long (30 minutes) exposures of the same Western blot.
