چکیده
INTRODUCTION This study investigated the comparability of potential Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers across blood fractions and assay platforms. METHODS Nonfasting serum and plasma samples from 300 participants (150 AD patients and 150 controls) were analyzed. Proteomic markers were obtained via electrochemiluminescence or Luminex technology. Comparisons were conducted via Pearson correlations. The relative importance of proteins within an AD diagnostic profile was examined using random forest importance plots. RESULTS On the Meso Scale Discovery multiplex platform, 10 of the 21 markers shared >50% of the variance across blood fractions (serum amyloid A R(2) = 0.99, interleukin (IL)10 R(2) = 0.95, fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) R(2) = 0.94, I309 R(2) = 0.94, IL-5 R(2) = 0.94, IL-6 R(2) = 0.94, eotaxin3 R(2) = 0.91, IL-18 R(2) = 0.87, soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 R(2) = 0.85, and pancreatic polypeptide R(2) = 0.81). When examining protein concentrations across platforms, only five markers shared >50% of the variance (beta 2 microglobulin R(2) = 0.92, IL-18 R(2) = 0.80, factor VII R(2) = 0.78, CRP R(2) = 0.74, and FABP R(2) = 0.70). DISCUSSION The current findings highlight the importance of considering blood fractions and assay platforms when searching for AD relevant biomarkers.

متن کاملComparing apples and oranges: a randomised prospective study.
For many years the comparison of apples and oranges was thought to be impossible. Many authors use the analogy of the putative inability to compare apples and oranges as a means of scornfully reviewing the work of others. The titles of some recent publications 2 suggest an actual comparison of apples and oranges, but the authors do not, in fact, compare these two fruits. Our laboratory has been...
