Overview
Creutzfeldt Jakob disease was first described in 1920-1921 by two German neurologists, Hans Gerhard Creutzfeldt and Alfons Maria Jakob.
Historical Perspective
- Creutzfeldt Jakob disease was first described in 1920-1921 by two German neurologists, Hans Gerhard Creutzfeldt and Alfons Maria Jakob.
- The term Creutzfeldt Jakob was first coined by Spielmeyer in 1922 in honor of Creutzfeldt and Jakob's report.[1]
- In 1997, Stanley B. Prusiner was awarded the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for his discovery of prions.
- In 2007, Laura Manuelidis, an American neuropathologist, and her colleagues described a virus-like particle without nucleic acid in less than 10% of the cells a scrapie-infected cell line and in a mouse cell line infected by a human Creutzfeldt Jakob disease agent.[2]
