  1. aAccording to Parchi, 1999 [17]; and Parchi, 2011 [18].
  2. bAccording to Bishop, 2010 [24]; Kobayashi, 2007 [20]; and Kobayashi, 2013 [23].
  3. cIntermediate type located between types 1 and 2 PrPSc.
  4. dAlthough not only V2 PrPSc but also Mi PrPSc can cause p-dCJD if transmitted to the 129 M/M individuals, the primary origin of Mi PrPSc is V2 PrPSc (see text).
  5. eM2 PrPSc can be divided into two subgroups based on histopathological phenotypes. M2C PrPSc causes a predominant cortical pathology, whereas M2T PrPSc causes atrophy of thalamic and inferior olivery nuclei.
