Project summary Over the past several years, blood-based biomarkers that accurately detect Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) brain pathology have been developed. However, there are no specific fluid or imaging biomarkers for primary tauopathies including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). We have recently identified specific species of tau in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that can identify subsets of primary tauopathies from healthy control groups and other tauopathies with moderate specificity and sensitivity. In this study, we propose to optimize mass spectrometry methods to better distinguish primary tauopathies in CSF. Based on the new methods, we will translate these primary tauopathy biomarkers to blood and test if they correlate with the biomarker measures in paired CSF. This study will provide first measures of primary tauopathies in blood and prepare for large cohort studies looking into primary tauopathy CSF and blood to distinguish subgroups of primary tauopathies or tauopathies from other neurological or psychiatric diseases. If blood biomarkers are developed, it will likely be widely used and could facilitate primary tauopathy research and diagnoses.

项目概要 在过去的几年里，基于血液的生物标记物可以准确检测阿尔茨海默病（AD）大脑 病理学已经发展起来。然而，目前还没有针对原发性疾病的特定液体或影像生物标志物。 tau蛋白病，包括进行性核上性麻痹（PSP）、皮质基底节变性（CBD）和 额颞叶变性（FTLD）。我们最近在脑脊液中发现了特定种类的 tau 蛋白 液体（CSF），可以从健康对照组和其他 tau蛋白病中识别原发性 tau蛋白病的子集 具有中等的特异性和敏感性。在这项研究中，我们建议优化质谱方法 更好地区分脑脊液中的原发性 tau蛋白病。基于新方法，我们将翻译这些主要内容 将 tau 蛋白病生物标志物检测到血液中，并测试它们是否与配对脑脊液中的生物标志物测量相关。这项研究 将提供血液中原发性 tau蛋白病的初步测量，并为大型队列研究做好准备 原发性 tau 蛋白病脑脊液和血液用于区分原发性 tau 蛋白病亚组或与其他 tau 蛋白病 神经或精神疾病。如果血液生物标志物被开发出来，它可能会被广泛使用并可能 促进原发性 tau 蛋白病的研究和诊断。
