CSF beta-amyloid 1–42 – what are we measuring in Alzheimer's disease?

TL;DR: To characterize biological and technical factors which influence cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker levels, including the presence of apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele, AD diagnosis, Aβ‐binding proteins, sample processing, and preanalytical handling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal progression of grey matter atrophy in non-amnestic Alzheimer’s disease

TL;DR: Medial temporal sparing in non-amnestic Alzheimer's disease may be due in part to later onset of medial temporal degeneration than in amnestic patients rather than different rates of atrophy over time, and indirect support for the role of long-distance fibre pathways in the spread of neurodegenerative disease is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma EGF and cognitive decline in Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: This work investigates EGF as a predictive biomarker in prodromal PD, as well as AD, and nominates plasma epidermal growth factor as a biomarker predicting cognitive decline in patients with established PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct TDP-43 pathology in ALS patients with ataxin 2 intermediate-length polyQ expansions

TL;DR: The paucity of large round TDP-43 inclusions in ALS cases with or without ataxin 2 intermediate-length polyQ expansions suggests a distinct pathological subtype of ALS and highlights the possibility for distinct pathogenic mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

"Emerging Alzheimer's disease therapies: focusing on the future".

TL;DR: The Center for Neurodegenerative Disease Research (CNDR) organized a 1 day symposium entitled "Emerging Alzheimer's disease Therapies: Focusing On The Future" on November 7th, 2001 at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, PA, which focused on novel therapies for AD designed to prevent/eliminate Abeta deposits in the brains of AD patients.
