2/5 "But, as the researchers expected, the brains of #Alzheimer’s patients had higher amounts of #insoluble #Aβ #fibrils, the form of #amyloid #protein that aggregates to form the telltale “#plaques” seen in the #disease,..."
3/5 "... higher levels of #fibrillary #amyloid appear to be a better indicator of #poorer #brain #health."
1/5 "#SARSCoV2 #infection is associated with a #surprising number of #morbidities."

2/5 "#Uncanny #similarities with #amyloid-#disease associated #blood #coagulation and #fibrinolytic #disturbances together with #neurologic and #cardiac problems led us to investigate the #amyloidogenicity of the #SARSCoV2 #spike #protein (#S-protein)."
3/5 "#Amyloid #fibril #assays of peptide library mixtures and theoretical predictions identified seven #amyloidogenic #sequences within the S-protein."
I am delighted to share our latest blood biomarker work published in @alzassociation.
We investigated baseline & longitudinal #pTau, #NfL, #GFAP, #tTau, #Aβ to predict diagnosis & grey matter changes in individuals not predetermined by CSF/imaging.
