Immuno-Diagnostics Antibodies and Antigens for Alzheimer Disease (AD) Diagnosis
Alzheimer's disease (AD), also known as senile dementia, has pathological features mainly characterized by beta-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and tau protein neurofibrillary tangles in the brain.
AD is a common neurodegenerative disease that accounts for 60% to 80% of all dementia cases and can lead to impaired cognitive function. Epidemiological surveys show that there are approximately 15.07 million dementia patients in China over the age of 60, including approximately 9.83 million AD patients.

What are the biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease ?
The 2023 Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC) released a draft proposal for AD diagnostics standards, which introduces blood-based biomarker testing for the first time. AD can be diagnosed through plasma biomarkers such as Aβ42, Aβ40, P-tau181, P-tau217, P-tau231, NFL, GFAP (as shown in the table above). These biomarkers have not yet been subjected to large-scale clinical studies, and relevant groups need to be Do further analysis. For the diagnosis of AD, it is necessary to rely on comprehensive methods such as clinical manifestations and imaging.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the aberrant
accumulation of tau protein, which plays a vital role in maintaining neuronal structure.
Emerging research indicates that phosphorylated tau fragments, namely Phospho-tau181
(p-tau181),
Phospho-tau217 (p-tau217), Phospho-tau231 (p-tau231), p-tau202/205, p-tau212/214,
p-tau413, and p-tau422, exhibit early increases in the brain following amyloid-beta (Aβ)
buildup. These increases occur years before the detection of neurofibrillary tangles and decades
prior to the onset of symptoms. The quantification of these biomarkers demonstrates greater
sensitivity than Aβ levels alone, enabling more accurate differentiation between AD and other
forms of dementia. Notably, phosphorylated tau fragments can increase up to 10-fold in blood
levels as AD progresses, while the Aβ42/40 ratio only decreases by approximately 15
percent.
Monoclonal antibodies, such as AT8, AT100, AT180, and AT270, have been developed to target
specific forms of tau protein. For instance, AT8 specifically recognizes tau phosphorylated at
serine 202 and threonine 205 sites, aiding in the identification of abnormal tau protein
accumulation in AD. AT100 targets phosphorylated tau at threonine 212 and serine 214 sites,
facilitating the detection of early-stage neurofibrillary pathology in AD. AT180 binds to
phosphorylated tau at the threonine 231 site, contributing to our understanding of the
relationship between tau protein phosphorylation and neurodegeneration. Moreover, AT270 targets
phosphorylated tau at the threonine 181 site and has been shown to detect elevated tau protein
levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of AD patients. These monoclonal antibodies serve as
invaluable research tools for investigating the pathological mechanisms underlying
neurodegenerative diseases like AD.
The most recommended products of Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
Tau protein and beta-amyloid are the two most recommended biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Elevated tau levels indicate neurodegeneration, while abnormal beta-amyloid accumulation forms plaques, disrupting cell function. Their measurement is crucial for early AD diagnosis, monitoring disease progression, and assessing treatment efficacy, making them key in AD research and management.
