A peptide fragment of the prion protein, PrP106-126 is toxic to neuronal cells in culture. This toxicity is dependent on neuronal expression of the prion protein (PrP c ) and also the presence of microglia. The role of expression of the PrP c in neurotoxicity of this peptide was investigated using m
