Bruce M.E. & Fraser H. (1982) Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology 8, 71–74 Effects of age on cerebral amyloid plaques in murine scrapie The frequency of cerebral amyloid plaques in murine scrapie was not influenced by the age of the mouse at injection in a study using several combinations of agent strain and mouse strain. In addition amyloid plaques were not seen in a series of extremely old uninfected mice.
