A progressive, fatal spongiform encephalopathy developed in three squirrel monkeys 11 months after inoculation with primate-passaged transmissible mink encephalopathy agent. The clinical symptoms and histopathologic and electron microscopic findings suggest that this naturally occurring disease of mink has been transmitted experimentally to squirrel monkeys.
三只松鼠猴在接种经灵长类动物传代的传染性水貂脑病病原体11个月后，发生了一种进行性、致命的海绵状脑病。临床症状、组织病理学和电子显微镜检查结果表明，这种水貂的自然发生疾病已通过实验传播给了松鼠猴。
