ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Visinin-like protein 1 (VILIP-1) belongs to the group of emerging biomarkers with the potential to support the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, studies investigating the differential diagnostic potential in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are rare and are not available for blood.METHODS:
We set up a novel, sensitive single molecule array (Simoa) assay for the detection of VILIP-1 in CSF and serum. In total, paired CSF and serum samples from 234 patients were investigated 73 AD, 18 behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), 26 parkinsonian syndromes, 20 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), 22 Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), and 75 non-neurodegenerative control (Con) patients. The differential diagnostic potential of CSF and serum VILIP-1 was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and findings were compared to core AD biomarkers.RESULTS:
CSF and serum VILIP-1 levels correlated weakly (r=0.32 (CI 0.20-0.43), p<0.0001). VILIP-1 concentrations in CSF and serum were elevated in AD compared to Con (p<0.0001 and p<0.01) and CJD (p<0.0001 for CSF and serum), and an increase in CSF was observed already in early AD stages (p<0.0001). In the discrimination of AD versus Con, we could demonstrate a strong diagnostic potential for CSF VILIP-1 alone (area under the curve (AUC) 0.87), CSF VILIP-1/CSF Abeta 1-42 (AUC 0.98), and serum VILIP-1/CSF Abeta 1-42 ratio (AUC 0.89).CONCLUSIONS:
We here report on the successful establishment of a novel Simoa assay for VILIP-1 and illustrate the potential of CSF and serum VILIP-1 in the differential diagnosis of AD with highest levels in CJD.Palavras-chave
