New theory suggests that BSE may have originated from a human form of the
diseaseAnimal feed contaminated with human remains may have caused the first
cases of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), suggests a hypothesis. Alan
Colchester and Nancy Colchester propose a new theory consisting of three
hypotheses: that human TSE-contaminated material was the cause of BSE; that
this was transmitted orally via animal feed; and that the infective material
originated from the Indian subcontinent. They present circumstantial evidence
showing that human material was imported into the UK from India with other
animal remains for the production of animal feed over a long period. They also
propose that human TSE and BSE strain characteristics have sufficient
similarities to be consistent with their hypothesis.
