Protein carbonyl groups as biomarkers of oxidative stress.

TL;DR: The usage of protein CO groups as biomarkers of oxidative stress has some advantages in comparison with the measurement of other oxidation products because of the relative early formation and the relative stability of carbonylated proteins.

Clinical Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease

TL;DR: There are a number of ways in which a clinical diagnosis of dementia of the Alzheimer type can be made – the application of clinical criteria is the commonest but ancillary techniques such as neuroima are also used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial abnormalities in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Morphometric analysis showed that mitochondria are significantly reduced in Alzheimer's disease, and the relationship shown here between the site and extent of mitochondrial abnormalities and oxidative damage suggests an intimate and early association between these features in dementia.

Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in Alzheimer's disease brain: potential causes and consequences involving amyloid beta-peptide-associated free radical oxidative stress.

TL;DR: This review summarizes current knowledge on phospholipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in AD brain, one potential cause of this oxidative stress, and consequences of A(beta)-induced lipid per oxidation andprotein oxidation inAD brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein carbonylation in human diseases.

TL;DR: Rapid recent progress in the identification of carbonylated proteins should provide new diagnostic (possibly pre-symptomatic) biomarkers for oxidative damage, and yield basic information to aid the establishment an efficacious antioxidant therapy.

Clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease : report of the NINCDS-ADRDA Work Group under the auspices of Department of Health and Human Services Task Force on Alzheimer's Disease

TL;DR: The criteria proposed are intended to serve as a guide for the diagnosis of probable, possible, and definite Alzheimer's disease; these criteria will be revised as more definitive information becomes available.

Carbonyl assays for determination of oxidatively modified proteins

TL;DR: New methods for determination ofcarbonyl content are presented, which are based on the reaction of carbonyl groups with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to form a 2, 4-d Initrophenolhydrazone, which provide substantial improvements in both sensitivity and specificity.

Oxidative stress hypothesis in alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: Supporting indirect evidence comes from a variety of in vitro studies showing that free radicals are capable of mediating neuron degeneration and death, suggesting that therapeutic efforts aimed at removal of ROS or prevention of their formation may be beneficial in AD.
