The virino is a hypothetical infectious particle that was once theorized to be the cause of scrapie and other degenerative diseases of the central nervous system; it was thought to consist of nucleic acids in a protective coat of host cell proteins. The hypothesis was never widely accepted, and the causative agents responsible for these diseases are now widely accepted to be prions.

  • Il termine virino è stato un termine utilizzato in passato, ed ora accantonato, per definire un'ipotetica particella contagiosa, un tempo ritenuta essere causa della scrapie e di altre del sistema nervoso. Si pensava che consistesse in un acido nucleico avvolto da un rivestimento protettivo formato dalle proteine della cellula ospitante. Il maggior problema che riguarda la scrapie e le altre encefalopatie spongiformi trasmissibili (TSEs) è determinato dalla natura dell'agente di trasmissione. (it)
