  1. Assessment of the Correlation and Diagnostic Accuracy between Cerebrospinal Fluid and Plasma Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers: A Comparison of the Lumipulse and Simoa Platforms

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. International journal of molecular sciences 2024-04-23 Biomarkers

    We compared the clinical and analytical performance of Alzheimer's disease (AD) plasma biomarkers measured using the single-molecule array (Simoa) and Lumipulse platforms.

  2. Serum C5a level increased with AD severity, and its expression was positively correlated with serum pro-inflammatory factor levels, and negatively correlated with cognitive function.

  3. Plasma Aβ40, Aβ42, and P-Tau proteins in the NC, aMCI, and AD groups increased with the progression of AD ( P < 0.01); cortical thickness reductions in the AD-aMCI groups and AD-NC groups mainly involved the bilateral superior temporal gyrus, transverse temporal gyrus, superior marginal gyrus, insula, right entorhinal cortex, right fusiform gyrus, and cingulate gyrus.

  4. The Correlations Between Plasma Fibrinogen With Amyloid-Beta and Tau Levels in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Frontiers in neuroscience 2021-01-21 Biomarkers

    Recent studies show that fibrinogen plays a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which may be crucial to neurovascular damage and cognitive impairment.

  5. Correlations between serum and CSF pNfH levels in ALS, FTD and controls: a comparison of three analytical approaches

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine 2019-09-01 Biomarkers

    Serum levels also correlated strongly with CSF levels for Simoa-based measurements (both ϱ = 0.62).

  6. Correlations between plasma and PET beta-amyloid levels in individuals with subjective cognitive decline: the Fundació ACE Healthy Brain Initiative (FACEHBI)

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 53 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2018-11-29 Biomarkers

    To facilitate clinical trials of disease-modifying therapies, plasma concentrations of Aβ species are good candidates for peripheral AD biomarkers, but studies to date have generated conflicting results.

  7. Correlations of 18F-THK5351 PET with Postmortem Burden of Tau and Astrogliosis in Alzheimer Disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine 2017-09-01 Biomarkers

    Regional in vivo 18 F-THK5351 retention was significantly correlated with the density of tau aggregates in the neocortex and monoamine oxidase-B in the whole brain, but not correlated with that of insoluble amyloid-β.

  8. An enzyme-generated fragment of tau measured in serum shows an inverse correlation to cognitive function

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. PloS one 2013-05-22 Biomarkers

    Based on the hypothesis that tau is cleaved proteolytically and then released into the blood, we here provide evidence for the presence of an ADAM10-generated tau fragment (Tau-A) in serum.

  9. In this article the correlations between the morphological evaluation of the nerve fiber layer (NFL) thickness (by OCT) and retinal functional assessment (by Pattern ERG recordings) performed in patients affected by ocular hypertension (OHT), glaucoma (OAG), demyelinating optic neuritis (MSON), and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are reported.
