Abstract:Objectives We sought to compare two of the most promising plasma biomarkers for Alzheimer disease: pTau181 and pTau217. Methods pTau181 and pTau217 were quantified using SIMOA Quanterix and ALZpath assays in the well characterized prospective multicentre BALTAZAR cohort of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) participants. Results Among MCI participants, 55% were Aβ+ and 29% developed dementia due to AD. pTau181 and pTau217 were higher in the Aβ+ population with fold-change of 1.5 and 2.7 respectively.
