Blood proteomics of menopause map to brain aging and dementia risk.

Menopause is a hallmark process in biological aging that has been implicated in later neurodegenerative risk, but the pathways underlying this connection remain unclear. Here we used blood proteomics data from several cohorts to identify biological changes associated with menopause and its links to brain aging. In n = ...

Multimodal Ageing Biomarkers and Plasma Proteomic Signatures Associated With All‐Cause Mortality

ABSTRACT Ageing biomarkers quantify molecular, physiological or functional features that vary between individuals as they age and may improve prediction of health outcomes beyond chronological age. Recently, plasma proteomics have been used to estimate the biological ages of 11 human organs. Although accelerated organ...

Proteomic insights into childhood adversity: Exploring biological mechanisms and cognitive outcomes in the CARDIA study

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), including abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction, are among the most consequential adverse social experiences of early life and carry elevated risk of chronic disease and cognitive impairment in adulthood through biological pathways that are poorly understood. We examined the me...

Developing Topics.

BACKGROUND Demonstrating the specificity of plasma biomarkers to AD-related neurodegeneration would add support to their prognostic and diagnostic clinical use. METHOD Participants from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging were cognitively unimpaired at the time of their plasma Aβ42/Aβ40, GFAP, NfL (Quanterix Ne...

Association of plasma biomarkers with longitudinal change in age- and Alzheimer’s disease-related brain atrophy patterns

Among CU individuals, plasma p-tau217 was associated with subsequent MCI/dementia due to AD and showed the most extensive associations with longitudinal AD-related brain atrophy, compared with SPARE-BA or R-indices capturing subcortical, diffuse cortical, or perisylvian atrophy.

The proteomic and metabolomic signature of inherited chromosomally integrated HHV‐6 and its role in all‐cause dementia and mortality risk: The UK Biobank study

Examination of associations of inherited chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 with incident dementia and mortality, characterize proteomic and metabolomic correlates of carrier status, and evaluate whether these biomarkers relate to dementia and mortality risk found iciHHV‐6 was associated with increased dement...
