  • Differential increase in cerebrospinal fluid-acetylcholinesterase after treatment with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors in patients with Alzheimer's disease
  • 2001

    • The clinical significance and the effects of pharmacological treatment of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) were evaluated by measurement of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CSF-AChE of AD patients was lower, not significantly, compared with controls. However, CSF-AChE was significantly increased after treatment of AD patients with AChE inhibitors (donepezil and galantamine). The increase was higher in patients treated with donezepil than in those treated with galantamine, which might be related to different mechanisms for the substances. The increase was also dose-dependent, and was especially marked in patients showing a clinical response. These data suggest that CSF biomarkers are capable not only of identifying a biochemical effect of drugs, but also of differentiating between different compounds in a dose-dependent manner.

  • Measurement of apolipoprotein E (apoE) in cerebrospinal fluid
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Neurochemical Research. - 1573-6903. ; 25:4, s. 511-517
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is a protein involved in transport of lipids and has been implicated to play an important role in regeneration after nerve injury. Determination of apoE in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) thus have a potential interest when studying different forms of brain damage and as a marker of ongoing regenerative processes in the brain. However, previous studies on CSF-ApoE in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have given inconclusive results. Such inconsistent results might be related to confounding factors interfering with sample handling and/or analyses, which have not been fully elucidated. We therefore examined different potential confounding factors for analyses of apoE in CSF and also developed a new enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The hydrophobic character of ApoE resulted in adsorption to different types of test tubes commonly used for collection of CSF at lumbar puncture, resulting in falsely low levels. This makes CSF handling critical, especially if samples are taken in different types of tubes, or is transferred to new tubes. Taking this confounding factors in consideration and analysing patient and control CSF handled in the same way and using the new ELISA, we could confirm our previous finding of reduced levels of ApoE in AD, (3.4 +/- 1.3 mg/l) compared with controls (4.5 +/- 2.7 mg/l) (p = 0.045). Both in the AD and in the control group, higher levels of CSF-ApoE was found in individuals possessing the ApoE4 alleles. Our results support that CSF-ApoE is reduced in AD, and that handling of CSF is a critical factor, which may explain the discrepant results from previous studies. Differences in the amount of patients and controls possessing the ApoE4 allele included might also increase the variance between different studies.

  • Standardization of measurement of beta-amyloid(1-42) in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Amyloid. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1350-6129 .- 1744-2818. ; 7:4, s. 245-258
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The standardization and clinical validation of the measurement of beta-amyloid(1-42) (Abeta42) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), plasma and urine is described using a commercially available sandwich-type ELISA with 21F12 and 3D6 as monoclonal antibodies. The INNOTEST beta-amyloid(1-42) allows the specific and reliable measurement of(1-42) amyloid peptides in CSF and plasma. The Abeta42 concentrations in serum and urine were below the detection limit. In plasma, no differences were found in Abeta42 levels between controls and patients with different neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer's disease (AD), Lewy body disease (LBD), others). In contrast, CSF-Abeta42 concentrations were lower in AD and LBD patients as compared to controls. No correlation was found in AD patients between CSF and plasma concentrations of Abeta42 or between CSF Abeta42 levels and blood-brain-barrier function. The quantitative outcome of the test is in part dependent on confounding factors such as tube type, freeze/thaw cycles, temperature of incubation, standard preparation protocol, and antibody selection. Notwithstanding these aspects, it emerged that Abeta42 is a useful biochemical marker for the diagnosis of AD patients, but there is a need for an international Abeta standard, a universally accepted protocol for CSF preparation, and a thorough evaluation of assay performance in function of the boundary conditions.
