Tau pathology: a marker of neurodegenerative disorders.
Tau is not only a basic component of neurofibrillary degeneration, but is also an aetiological factor, as demonstrated by mutations on the tau gene responsible for frontotemporal dementias with parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17. Polymorphisms on the tau gene and the hierarchical invasion of neocortical areas by tau pathology in numerous sporadic neurodegenerative diseases also suggest that t...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid tau as a marker of neuronal damage after epileptic seizure
PURPOSE Whether repeated brief seizures can cause neuronal damage is controversial. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) total tau (T-tau) and phosphorylated tau (P-tau) measurements have been suggested for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, and T-tau may also be a marker of axonal damage and neuronal degeneration. We studied T-tau and P-tau levels and P-tau/T-tau ratio in CSF after epileptic seizures ...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid tau levels are a marker for molecular subtype in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
The molecular subtype of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is an important prognostic marker for patient survival. However, subtype determination is not possible during lifetime. Because the rate of disease progression is associated with the molecular subtype, this study aimed at investigating if total tau, a marker of neuronal death, allows premortem diagnosis of molecular subtype when...
متن کاملGenetic Risk as a Marker of Amyloid-β and Tau Burden in Cerebrospinal Fluid
BACKGROUND The search for a biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology (amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau) is ongoing, with the best markers currently being measurements of Aβ and tau in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and via positron emission tomography (PET) scanning. These methods are relatively invasive, costly, and often have high screening failure rates. Consequently, research is aiming to elucidate...
متن کاملPhosphorylated tau in cerebrospinal fluid as a marker for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
OBJECTIVE To determine the concentrations of microtubule associated protein tau and multiple phosphorylated tau epitopes in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD), dementias, and controls, in order to evaluate their diagnostic use and clinical relevance. METHODS The CSF concentrations of total tau and phosphorylated tau at epitope 181 were determine...
