  1. Assessment of Plasma and Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers in Different Stages of Alzheimer's Disease and Frontotemporal Dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. International journal of molecular sciences 2023-01-08 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the primary type of dementia, followed by frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD).

  2. Blood neuro-exosomal synaptic proteins predict Alzheimer's disease at the asymptomatic stage

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2020-08-10 Tau biomarkers

    This study revealed that exosomal GAP43, neurogranin, SNAP25, and synaptotagmin 1 act as effective biomarkers for prediction of AD 5 to 7 years before cognitive impairment.

  3. Detecting earlier stages of amyloid deposition using PET in cognitively normal elderly adults

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 59 out of 100. Neurology 2020-03-18 Brain scans and imaging

    Nominally Aβ- CN individuals with high Aβ in BANKSSTS are at increased risk of cognitive decline, probably showing an earlier stage of Aβ deposition.

  4. Profiling the human hippocampal proteome at all pathologic stages of Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2016-01-06 Genetics

    This study provides new insight into AD-dependent changes in protein levels in the hippocampus during AD pathology, identifying potential novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers.
