Beskrivelse

 

 Researchers in Denmark have devised a blood-based diagnostic technique that can detect even trace amounts of an aggregated protein indicative of Alzheimer’s disease before any disease-related changes show up on a PET scan, one of the traditional testing methods. The same technology can be used for developing new therapies by revealing what part of the innate immune system is engaged in the fight, according to Thomas Vorup-Jensen, Ph.D., biomedicine professor at Aarhus University.
