  1. The Role of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein in the Neuropathology of Alzheimer's Disease and Its Potential as a Blood Biomarker for Early Diagnosis and Progression

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 60 out of 100. Molecular neurobiology 2025-07-21 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterised by neuropathological hallmarks, including extracellular amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.

  2. Glial fibrillary acidic protein in Alzheimer's disease: a narrative review

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Brain communications 2024-11-07 Biomarkers

    Astrocytes are fundamental in neural functioning and homeostasis in the central nervous system.

  3. Clinical and biological relevance of glial fibrillary acidic protein in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2023-11-03 Biomarkers

    Our findings indicate that GFAP is of potential clinical utility in screening amyloid pathology and predicting future cognitive decline.

  4. Plasma Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Is Associated with 18F-SMBT-1 PET: Two Putative Astrocyte Reactivity Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2023-01-01 Biomarkers

    There is an association between plasma GFAP and regional 18F-SMBT-1 PET, and this association appears to be dependent on brain Aβ load.

  5. Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) Is a Marker of Disease Severity in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2020-01-01 Biomarkers

    Serum GFAP is increased in FTLD, correlates with cognition and GABAergic deficits, and thus shows promise as a biomarker of disease severity in FTLD.

  6. Glial fibrillary acidic protein and protein S-100B: different concentration pattern of glial proteins in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Alzheimer's disease and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2009-01-01 Biomarkers

    Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and protein S-100B are established indicators of astrogliosis in neuropathology.

  7. Caspase-mediated cleavage of glial fibrillary acidic protein within degenerating astrocytes of the Alzheimer's disease brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The American journal of pathology 2006-03-01 Biomarkers

    Recent studies demonstrate roles for activation of caspases and cleavage of cellular proteins within neurons of the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain.

  8. Proteomic analysis of glial fibrillary acidic protein in Alzheimer's disease and aging brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neurobiology of disease 2005-06-27 Biomarkers

    Chronic inflammation is known to play an important role in the heterogeneous pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  9. A new splice variant of glial fibrillary acidic protein, GFAP epsilon, interacts with the presenilin proteins

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of biological chemistry 2002-06-10 Biomarkers

    We describe a new human isoform, GFAP epsilon, of the intermediary filament protein GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein).

  10. The cerebrospinal fluid level of glial fibrillary acidic protein is increased in cerebrospinal fluid from Alzheimer's disease patients and correlates with severity of dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. European neurology 2001-01-01 Biomarkers

    To gain insight of the underlying mechanisms of astroglial response to Alzheimer's disease (AD), the level of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from controls and AD subjects were immunochemically determined, and the correlation between that level and dementia severity of AD patients was evaluated.

  11. Transforming growth factor-beta 1 induces neuronal and astrocyte genes: tubulin alpha 1, glial fibrillary acidic protein and clusterin

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience 1994-02-01 Biomarkers

    Transforming growth factor-beta 1 was studied as a possible regulator of messenger RNAs in astrocytes and neurons that increase after hippocampal deafferentation by perforant path transection: tubulin alpha 1, clusterin and glial fibrillary acidic protein messenger RNA.
