Title:
BIOMARKERS FOR TANGLE-PREDOMINANT DEMENTIA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/192522
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This invention relates to the field of screening for, identifying, and diagnosing tangle- predominant dementia (TPD). Specifically, this invention provides various biomarkers for this disease, and methods of using these biomarkers to correctly subclassify patients with Alzheimer's-type dementia by differentiating TPD patients from those with classical Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as prodromal AD, and mild cognitive impairment due to AD.
