Highly Accurate Model used to Predict Alzheimer’s Disease StatusAli, Muhammad ; Cruchaga, Carlos
T-020673
— Technology Description Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed models that can very accurately predict brain amyloidosis—Alzheimer’s disease status. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of Amyloid-β (Aβ42) and hyperphos…
Blood-based biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease for diagnostics and clinical trialsCruchaga, Carlos ; Dube, Umber ; Ibanez, Laura
T-019198
— Technology Description: Researchers in Prof. Carlos Cruchaga’s laboratory have identified a sensitive and specific panel of circular RNAs (circRNA) that could be used for diagnosing, screening or monitoring patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The expression of these circRNAs tracks with …
