  1. This study will establish the precision of TAS Test to identify preclinical AD and estimate risk of cognitive decline and AD.

  2. Validation of a prototype tau Thr231 phosphorylation CSF ELISA as a potential biomarker for Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of neural transmission (Vienna, Austria : 1996) 2019-02-14 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the presence of extracellular amyloid plaques (senile plaques) and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles formed by hyperphosphorylated tau protein.

  3. Validation of ELISA methods for quantification of total tau and phosporylated-tau181 in human cerebrospinal fluid with measurement in specimens from two Alzheimer's disease studies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2011-01-01 Biomarkers

    Tau measurements in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are gaining acceptance as aids to diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and differentiation from other dementias.
