Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Progranulin is implicated in frontotemporal dementia (FTD), but its role in other neurodegenerative disorders is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the levels of progranulin (PGRN) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in different neurodegenerative dementias and their correlation with levels in plasma in cognitively normal subjects. METHODS: We measured PGRN in CSF in 229 patients with amnestic mild cognitive...
