US Classification:

435007920, 436086000

Abstract:

A method or technique of detecting, diagnosing, monitoring, and evaluating a neurodegenerative disease, such as Alzheimer's disease, in a human body fluid is disclosed. The invention provides for a method of detecting amyloid peptides associated with erythrocytes and amyloid peptide complement complexes, as a diagnostic test for the detection, monitoring, evaluation or diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and amyloid-based neurodegenerative diseases. More specifically the invention is directed to a method for detecting presence and amount of amyloid peptides such as amyloid beta (“Aβ”) and Aβ complement complexes, and related complement complexes and compounds with a role in neurodegenerative diseases, in an erythrocyte fraction of a human bodily fluid.

International Classification:

G01N 33/53
G01N 33/68

Abstract:

Various embodiments provide methods for the detection, the diagnosis, and/or the progression monitoring of Alzheimer's disease by observing the epigenetic markers in leukocytes. Methods for determining a state of Alzheimer's disease are provided. Accordingly, these methods can comprise the steps of placing a sample comprising at least one blood component onto a substrate labeling the sample to identify at least one epigenetic marker; determining an amount of the at least one epigenetic marker; comparing the amount to a reference value; and determining a state of Alzheimer's disease.
