  2. 1. Neurodegenerative Biomarkers in Healthy Elderly - with special reference to the preclinical pattern of biological and cognitive markers for Alzheimer’s disease

    Author : Erik Stomrud; Klinisk minnesforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cerebral blood flow; EEG; phosphorylated tau protein; amyloid beta protein; tau protein; cerebrospinal fluid; biomarkers; preclinical Alzheimer s disease; Alzheimer s disease; MCI; dementia; SPECT; memory; cognition; early diagnosis; control groups;

    Abstract : Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tau and amyloid brain pathology. With the gradual degeneration of neurons, cognitive symptoms will arise and the affected individual will eventually develop AD dementia. READ MORE

  4. 2. Proximity Ligation and Barcoding Assays : Tools for analysis of proteins and protein complexes

    Author : Di Wu; Masood Kamali-Moghaddam; Ulf Landegren; Ola Söderberg; Jörg Hoheisel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proximity ligation assay; proximity barcoding assay; sensitive; in situ; multiplex; profiling; amyloid-beta; MARK; tau; CSF; biomarker; protein complexes; Alzheimer’s disease; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Proteins are fundamental structural, enzymatic and regulatory components of cells. Analysis of proteins, such as by measuring their concentrations, characterizing their modifications, and detecting their interactions, provides insights in how biological systems work physiologically or pathologically at the molecular level.

  5. 3. Novel cerebrospinal fluid and blood tau biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases

    Author : Juan Lantero Rodriguez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tau; Phosphorylation; Biomarkers; Alzheimer’s disease; CSF; Blood;

    Abstract : Tau is a protein predominantly expressed in neurons in the central nervous system (CNS), where it binds microtubules (MT), playing a major role regulating their dynamics and architecture. Under pathological conditions, tau detaches from MTs, leading to neuronal dysfunction and cell death. READ MORE

  6. 4. Ex‘PLA’ining the progression of pathological proteins in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases : see(d)ing is believing

    Author : Anish Behere; Joakim Bergström; Sara Ekmark-Lewén; Martin Ingelsson; Stina Syvänen; Hilal Lashuel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Alpha synuclein; Tau; Proteoforms; Phosphorylation; Oligomers; Proximity Ligation Assay; sensitive detection of pathology; Alzheimer s disease; Parkinson s disease; pS129; pS202 pT205; pT231; PFFs;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are the two most common forms of neurodegenerative disorders affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide. The underlying neuropathological processes leading to AD and PD share many similarities, i.e. aberrant protein aggregation of tau and alpha-synuclein (αSyn) in the brain. READ MORE

  7. 5. Evaluation of amyloid precursor protein and ß-amyloid as biomarkers for Alzheimer s disease

    Author : Annika Olsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Alzheimer s disease; amyloid precursor protein; ß-amyloid; biomarker; cerebrospinal fluid; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; plasma;

    Abstract : Alzheimer s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by accumulations of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques. The major components of the amyloid deposits are the ß-amyloid (Aß) peptides derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP). READ MORE
