The scores of BAMBI and CHGA immunostaining positively correlated with all scrapie-related lesions (Table 1), the strongest correlation for the levels of both proteins being with PrPSc deposition in the total set of sheep (ρ = 0.409 for BAMBI and ρ = 0.507 for CHGA, p < 0.001) and with spongiosis in the scrapie group (ρ = 0.563 for BAMBI and ρ = 0.564 for CHGA, p < 0.001). The gene discussed is CHGA; the disease is scrapie.
