Cerebrospinal fluid phosphorylated tau proteins as predictors of Alzheimer’s disease in subjects with mild cognitive impairment
Year: 2008
Type: article
Abstract: Major efforts are under way to define reliable biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease.Highly significant increases of hyperphosphorylated tau proteins in cerebrospinal fluid have been recently reported in Alzheimer's disease patients compared to controls by several independent groups, including ours.These findings support the notion that cerebrospinal fluid phosphorylated tau proteins may be very useful biomarkers in the early identification of Alzheimer's disease in patients with mild cognitive impairment.
