Linkage analysis of multiplex Caribbean Hispanic families loaded for unexplained early‐onset cases identifies novel Alzheimer's disease loci

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2018
Introduction Less than 10% of early‐onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) is explained by known mutations. Methods We conducted genetic linkage analysis of 68 well‐phenotyped Caribbean Hispanic families without clear inheritance patterns or mutations in APP ...

Arterial Spin‐Labeling MRI at the Cortical‐CSF Interface: A Novel Biomarker in Alzheimer Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objective Arterial spin‐labeling (ASL) MRI can measure perfusion signal adjacent to CSF spaces and may provide information regarding CSF‐adjacent water transport physiology. We developed an automated pipeline to extract cortical‐CSF interface (IF) perfusion for comparison between Alzheimer disease (AD) and cognitively normal ...

Evaluation of Dried Plasma Spot‐Based Quantification of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein as a Disease‐Associated Biomarker in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) measured in dried plasma spots versus conventional plasma‐ and serum‐GFAP testing for assessment of disease severity in aquaporin‐4 immunoglobulin G–positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4‐IgG+ NMOSD).

The Contingent Valuation Method in Health Care: An Economic Evaluation of Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]

The present work focuses on the choice of the elicitation technique within a contingent valuation (CV) framework. We simultaneously apply three different elicitation techniques to elicit willingness-to-pay (WTP) values for different programs against ...

A Genomic Search for Alzheimer's Disease Genes

, 2001
Alzheimer's disease is the leading cause of dementia in the elderly and the most common form of dementia occurring after the age of 40. Alzheimer's disease has a complex genetic etiology with a strong genetic component that likely involves both gene–gene

Endothelial Cell Proteins as Biomarkers in Susac Syndrome

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Susac syndrome (SS) is a rare CD8+ T cell–mediated microangiopathy affecting the brain, retina, and auditory labyrinth. Endothelial injury is thought to be a central mechanism; however, no circulating disease biomarkers are known. We performed targeted proteomic profiling to identify circulating endothelial‐associated proteins as ...

Thioredoxin‐80 is a product of alpha‐secretase cleavage that inhibits amyloid‐beta aggregation and is decreased in Alzheimer's disease brain

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2012
Thioredoxin‐1 (Trx1) is an endogenous dithiol reductant and antioxidant that was shown to be decreased in Alzheimer's disease (AD) neurons. A truncated form of Trx1, thioredoxin 80 (Trx80), was reported to be secreted from monocytes having cytokine ...
