Fig 6. Variable PrPSc allotype ratios in sCJD neuropathological subtypes.

Fig 6

The percentage of PrPSc-M129 versus PrPSc-V129 is shown for neuropathological subtypes for which at least 2 cases were available for comparison. Each point represents the results from a single brain region from a single patient. For some patients, both CC and CbC were available for analysis. (a) sCJD MV1 + 2C, n = 4 cases, 5 samples total. (b) sCJD MV2K + 2C, n = 6 cases, 8 samples total. (c) sCJD MV2K, n = 2 cases, 3 samples total, (d) iCJD MV2K n = 6 cases. Using the unpaired Student’s t-test, the iCJD MV2K PrPSc allotype ratio differs significantly from both sCJD MV1 + 2C (p = 0.002) or sCJD MV2K + 2C (p = 0.02) but not from sCJD MV2K (p = 0.07).
