Scientists Develop Early Alzheimer’s Detection Test – Years Before Symptoms Appear

Summary by Sci Tech Daily
A new biomarker test can detect early-stage tau protein clumping up to a decade before it appears on brain scans, improving early Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Unlike amyloid-beta, tau neurofibrillary tangles are directly linked to cognitive decline. Years before tau tangles appear in brain scans of Alzheimer’s patients, a biomarker test developed by the University of Pittsburgh [...]

Early Alzheimer’s Disease with frequent neuritic plaques harbors neocortical tau seeds distinct from primary age-related tauopathy

Pathologic & clinical features are similar in ADNC & PART PART and ADNC participants were well-matched in demographic, clinical, and neuropathologic features. On standard neuropathologic evaluation, they differed only in severity of Aβ neuropathology, which defined the groups (Thal phase 3-5 in ADNC, Thal phase 0-2 in PART, Table 1, Methods). For this study, the cohort was limited to Braak stage II through IV, and, importantly, the two groups we…
