  1. Plasma biomarkers of amyloid, tau, axonal, and neuroinflammation pathologies in dementia with Lewy bodies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 59 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2024-07-03 Biomarkers

    Amyloid, tau, neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation plasma biomarkers are modified in DLB, albeit with moderate diagnosis performance.

  2. MRI and fluid biomarkers reveal determinants of myelin and axonal loss with aging

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. Annals of clinical and translational neurology 2023-02-10 Biomarkers

    Plasma biomarkers of neuronal injury and astrogliosis are associated with reduced axonal density and region-specific myelin content.

  3. Axonal damage markers in cerebrospinal fluid are increased in ALS

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Neurology 2006-03-01 Tau biomarkers

    The authors propose that axonal damage markers in CSF may discriminate between subtypes of ALS and that they could be used as markers for therapeutic trials.
