A highly sensitive gold-nanoparticle-based assay for acetylcholinesterase in cerebrospinal fluid of transgenic mice with Alzheimer's disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A highly sensitive, selective, and dual-readout (colorimetric and fluorometric) assay for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) based on Rhodamine B-modified gold nanoparticle is reported. Due to its good sensitivity and selectivity, the assay can be used for monitoring AChE levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of transgenic mice with Alzheimer's disease.

Gold nanoparticle based dot-blot immunoassay for sensitively detecting Alzheimer's disease related β-amyloid peptide.
A simple, sensitive gold nanoparticle (GNP)-based dot-blot immunoassay has been developed for detecting Alzheimer's disease related β-amyloid peptide 1-42 (Aβ(1-42)) down to a 50 pg mL(-1) level in aqueous solution. Practical samples (cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), cell culturing mediums and cell lysates) have been used to demonstrate the ability of the assay.
متن کاملUltrasensitive and highly selective detection of Alzheimer's disease biomarker using two-photon Rayleigh scattering properties of gold nanoparticle.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive mental disorder disease, which affects 26.6 million people worldwide and estimated increments can be 100 millions by 2050. Since there is no cure at present, early diagnosis of AD is crucial for the current drug treatments. Driven by the need, here we demonstrate for the first time that monoclonal anti-tau antibody-coated gold nanoparticle based two-pho...
متن کاملHighly potent soluble amyloid-β seeds in human Alzheimer brain but not cerebrospinal fluid.
The soluble fraction of brain samples from patients with Alzheimer's disease contains highly biologically active amyloid-β seeds. In this study, we sought to assess the potency of soluble amyloid-β seeds derived from the brain and cerebrospinal fluid. Soluble Alzheimer's disease brain extracts were serially diluted and then injected into the hippocampus of young, APP transgenic mice. Eight mont...
متن کاملSimultaneous determination of four monoamine metabolites and serotonin in cerebrospinal fluid by "high-performance" liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection; application for patients with Alzheimer's disease.
We describe an optimized, sensitive assay procedure for simultaneously determining 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, and serotonin in human lumbar cerebrospinal fluid. The assay is based on liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detection system equipped with a newly developed, highly sensitive graphite electrode. Before assay, samples are deproteinized wit...
متن کاملNeuronal acetylcholinesterase levels in cerebrospinal fluid and serum determined by a specific and sensitive immunoassay.
Acetylcholinesterase levels were determined in cerebrospinal fluid and serum of 272 patients with various neurological disorders. The patients were ordered in 13 diagnostic groups. The assay employed was an antigen capture assay based on an immobilized monoclonal antibody selective for neuronal acetylcholinesterase (Rasmussen et al., Clin. Chim. Acta 166 (1987) 17-25 (1)). In 100% of the cases ...
