Cerebrospinal Fluid β-Amyloid 42 and Tau Proteins as Biomarkers of Alzheimer-Type Pathologic Changes in the Brain

TL;DR: Cerebrospinal fluid Abeta42 and tau proteins are biomarkers of AD-associated pathologic changes in the brain and the combination of abnormally low CSF Abeta 42 level and abnormally high CSF tau level predicted the presence of AD pathologic features with high accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Alzheimer's Association external quality control program for cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers

Niklas Mattsson, +77 more
TL;DR: The cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers amyloid β (Aβ)‐42, total‐Tau (T‐tau), and phosphorylated‐t Tau (P‐tAU) demonstrate good diagnostic accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but there are large variations in biomarker measurements between studies, and between and within laboratories.
Journal ArticleDOI

CSF biomarker variability in the Alzheimer's Association quality control program

Niklas Mattsson, +118 more
TL;DR: The cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers amyloid beta 1–42, total tau, and phosphorylated tau are used increasingly for Alzheimer's disease research and patient management, but there are large variations in biomarker measurements among and within laboratories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and prognosis of Alzheimer's disease at the mild cognitive impairment stage.

TL;DR: The use of the proposed research criteria to identify Alzheimer's disease at the mild cognitive impairment stage and the use of both amyloid and neuronal injury markers as proposed by the National Institute of Ageing-Alzheimer Association criteria offers the most accurate prognosis are supported.
