News and current affairs
Having faced successive contamination crises in recent years--first BSE and then hoof and mouth disease--we feel particularly insecure about food.
My colleagues and I in NCJDSU argued that this new form of human prion disease was likely to be linked to exposure to the BSE agent, probably by eating BSE-infected meat products.
Later investigations have shown that the transmitting agent in variant CJD shares identical biological properties with BSE's agent, supporting a causal relationship.
BSE occurred as an epidemic in the UK after its identification in 1986, and several million BSE-infected cattle are likely to have entered the human food chain between 1980 and 1996.
It is estimated that most of the UK population was exposed to BSE through diet at this time.
This pattern of trade has now been mirrored in the increasing geographical spread of BSE from the UK to other countries in Europe, and more recently to Japan and the United States.
Given the extensive exposure of the UK population to BSE in the late 1980's and early 1990's, what explains the low number of confirmed cases?
Individuals infected with BSE who remain in an asymptomatic state during their lives could represent a risk to others of potential secondary transmission of variant CJD through blood transfusion or surgery.
If the epidemic were in decline, it might be anticipated that the average age of the patients would increase in the final stages (as occurred with cattle in the UK that were infected with BSE).
But variant CJD affects patients who are much younger than sporadic CJD patients, which might be due to either age-related exposure to BSE or age-related susceptibility.
