Alzheimer's disease is a chronic progressive neuroclegenerative disease and it is the most prevalent type of dementia. Diagnostic means, including neuroinnaging methods, are continuously improving. Nevertheless, it is still a challenge to increase the sensitivity and specificity of a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Two diagnostic areas are especially challenging: first, differentiating early stages of Alzheimer's disease from mild cognitive impairment and normal aging; and second, increasing diagnostic specificity especially when similar clinical symptoms are shared by various types of dementia. To date, the analysis of betaamyloid(l -42), total tau and phospho-tau-1 81 from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are the best biological markers to diagnose Alzheimer's disease and differentiate it from other forms of dementia with a high reliability and validity. This article reviews the use of CSF bionnarkers and of putative blood-related markers. 0 2007 Prous Science. All rights reserved.
