Abstract
One standing challenge for Alzheimer's disease (AD) research is early diagnosis, which provides a time window for early intervention. Sharmin et al recently reported a positive association between plasma ptau181 and plasma metabolites, medium- and long-chain acylcarnitines (ACs) in both cognitively normal (CN) Aβ− and CN Aβ+ older adults, suggesting a link between initial Aβ pathology and acylcarnitine-mediated energy metabolism pathways. Consistently, ACs could classify PET-Aβ status in elderly individuals. This study has provided further clues for early biomarker searching for AD, linking metabolic pathways with AD pathogenesis.
阿尔茨海默病(AD)研究的一个长期挑战是早期诊断,这为早期干预提供了一个时间窗口。Sharmin等人最近报道了认知正常(CN) a β-和CN a β+老年人血浆ptau181与血浆代谢物,中链和长链酰基肉碱(ACs)之间的正相关,表明初始a β病理与酰基肉碱介导的能量代谢途径之间存在联系。与此一致的是,ACs可以区分老年人的pet - a - β状态。本研究为阿尔茨海默病的早期生物标志物寻找提供了进一步的线索,将代谢途径与阿尔茨海默病的发病机制联系起来。
