Description

Tara Lafferty and colleagues read blood biomarkers in people whose Alzheimer's disease came from inherited PSEN1 mutations, confirmed at autopsy. Six mutation carriers, sporadic cases and healthy controls had plasma tested for tau, damage and amyloid markers during life. Two mutations in the set were known to cause disease, three were of unclear standing, and one case was not yet typed.

Two tau markers ran five to eightfold high in mutation carriers against controls, and a glial marker ran fourfold high in both disease groups. A nerve damage marker peaked in sporadic cases instead. Amyloid blood measures did not separate the groups. The known mutations carried the highest readings overall.
