Abstract excerpt
The CSF biomarkers beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta(1-42)), total tau protein (T-tau) and tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (P-tau(181P)) were determined in autopsy-confirmed Alzheimer's disease patients in order to study possible associations with the epsilon4 allele of APOE and density and spread of plaques (SP) and tangles (NFT). CSF levels of Abeta(1-42), T-tau and P-tau(181P) were determined in 50 Alzheimer's...
