YKL-40: A Novel Prognostic Fluid Biomarker for Preclinical Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract: Background Disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) would be most beneficial if applied during the ‘preclinical’ stage (pathology present with cognition intact) before significant neuronal loss occurs. Therefore, biomarkers that can detect AD pathology in its early stages and predict dementia onset and progression will be invaluable for patient care and efficient clinical trial design. Methods 2D–difference gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry were used to me… Show more

“…In contrast to previous studies of the CSF in aging 72,85 and AD, 76,77,79,82,86 our analyses reveal that the same biological processes change in both of these conditions but to a different extent. This suggests that CSF changes in AD reflect a perturbed process of physiological aging.…”

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…Our finding of increased CSF YKL-40 levels in APOE ε4 carriers contrasts with previous literature [18] , [19] , [20] , including one article published with the same sample here studied [21] . Unlike these, we here sought for differences between carriers and noncarriers after accounting for demographic and diagnostic factors.…”

“…Although this increase is more pronounced in Aβ‐positive than in negative individuals (as shown by the β slopes), the fact that there is no interaction between Aβ and age indicates that Aβ does not significantly modify the association between age and the specific CSF biomarker. These results are in line with previous studies that show that glial biomarkers increase with aging and also in other neurological diseases besides AD 27‐36 . Of note, our sample comprises a higher prevalence of A+T– than A+T+ individuals.…”
