  1. Mendelian randomization identifies blood metabolites previously linked to midlife cognition as causal candidates in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2021-04-01 Genetics

    There are currently no disease-modifying treatments for Alzheimer's disease (AD), and an understanding of preclinical causal biomarkers to help target disease pathogenesis in the earliest phases remains elusive.

  2. Blood metabolite markers of neocortical amyloid-β burden: discovery and enrichment using candidate proteins

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Translational psychiatry 2016-01-26 Biomarkers

    We believe this is the first study to investigate associations between blood metabolites and neocortical amyloid burden (NAB) in the search for a blood-based biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD).
