    Plasma BD-tau is a valuable marker for CJD prognostication.

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

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Neurobiology of aging 2006-01-01 Biomarkers

    To study the potential diagnostic value of abnormally phosphorylated tau protein in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) compared to Alzheimer's disease (AD), we determined levels of tau phosphorylated at threonine 231 (p-tau231) and of total tau (t-tau) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of CJD patients, AD patients, and healthy controls (HC).
