  1. Sensitive label-free detection of the biomarker phosphorylated tau-217 protein in Alzheimer's disease using a graphene-based solution-gated field effect transistor

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Biosensors & bioelectronics 2023-03-11 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is generally diagnosed using advanced imaging, but recent research suggests early screening using biomarkers in peripheral blood is feasible; among them, plasma tau proteins phosphorylated at threonine 231, threonine 181, and threonine 217 (p-tau217) are potential targets.

  2. A transistor-based label-free immunosensor for rapid detection of tau protein

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Biosensors & bioelectronics 2020-03-04 Drug development

    Tau protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a central and relevant biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD) that correlates with the severity of dementia.

  3. Label-free quantitative LC-MS proteomics of Alzheimer's disease and normally aged human brains

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of proteome research 2012-05-17 Genetics

    Quantitative proteomics analysis of cortical samples of 10 Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains versus 10 normally aged brains was performed by following the accurate mass and time tag (AMT) approach with the high resolution LTQ Orbitrap mass spectrometer.
