ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Numerous studies have reported on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, to date, none has compared biomarker patterns across the early-onset subtypes, i.e., early onset sporadic AD (EOsAD) and autosomal dominant AD (ADAD), qualitatively and quantitatively.OBJECTIVE:
To compare the fluid biomarker patterns in early-onset subtypes of AD; EOsAD and ADAD.METHODS:
Six scientific databases were searched for peer-reviewed research publications. The total number of individuals used in all the meta-analysis were 2,427, comprised of 1,337 patients and 1,090 controls.RESULTS:
In the subset of EOsAD cases without APP, PSEN1/PSEN2 mutations, CSF Aß42 and tau levels were higher when compared to the EOsAD group as a whole. Prevalence of the APOEÉ4 allele was more elevated in EOsAD relative to controls, and not significantly elevated in ADAD cases.CONCLUSION:
Established CSF biomarkers confirmed quantitative differences between variants of EOAD. EOsAD is enriched with APOEÉ4, but the level is not higher than generally reported in late-onset AD. The results prompt further exploration of the etiopathogenesis of EOsAD, which accounts for â¼4-10% of all AD cases, but the reasons for the early onset remain poorly understood.Palavras-chave
