  1. Blood amyloid-β protein isoforms are affected by HIV-1 in a subtype-dependent pattern

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of neurovirology 2019-07-07 Biomarkers

    This study aimed to compare serum amyloid processing biomarkers among HIV subtype B (n = 25), HIV subtype C (n = 26), healthy HIV-negative controls (n = 18), and patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD; n = 24).

  2. The Associations between a Capsaicin-Rich Diet and Blood Amyloid-β Levels and Cognitive Function

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2016-04-01 Biomarkers

    These findings suggest that a capsaicin-rich diet may exert favorable effects on AD blood biomarkers and cognitive function in middle-aged and elderly adults.

  3. Association between cell-bound blood amyloid-β(1-40) levels and hippocampus volume

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 74 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2014-10-20 Biomarkers

    Association of cell-bound Aβ(1-40) in blood with left hippocampal volume was much stronger than previously observed in Aβ plasma fractions.
