TL;DR

Plasma p-tau217 and p-tau181 are effective biomarkers for distinguishing biologically defined EOAD from EOFTD and adding NfL, GFAP, and APOE ε4 status further improves the discriminative accuracy for differentiating EOAD from EOFTD.

Predictive value of plasma p-tau217 for Alzheimer’s dementia compared to other blood-based biomarkers

P-tau217, NfL and GFAP showed strong associations with AD risk, especially within the first 9 years of follow-up, outperforming p-tau181, and over the later years of follow-up, the predictive accuracy of p-tau217 was significantly reduced.

Changes in five cerebrospinal fluid and three plasma Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers across increasing brain amyloid-beta and tau pathology burden

A sequential model of biomarker changes across the Alzheimer’s disease neuropathological continuum is supported, with CSF Aβ42/Aβ40 best reflects low/intermediate Aβ burden, while CSF p-tau markers are more closely related to high Aβ and intermediate tau load.

Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Diagnostic Performance of Plasma p-tau217 and p-tau217/Aβ42 in Alzheimer's Disease.

OBJECTIVE Recent studies suggest that combining plasma phosphorylated tau (p-tau) with β-amyloid (Aβ) may improve diagnosis accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the cross-sectional and longitudinal concordance of these markers with Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) positivity remains incompletely underst...

Association of total and brain-derived Alzheimer's disease plasma biomarkers with brain amyloid deposition in a community-based sample

In a community-based sample, BD-p-tau217 emerged as the plasma biomarker most strongly associated with brain A{beta} deposition, although this association may be attenuated in the presence of moderate/severe kidney dysfunction or kidney failure.

Relative importance of blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease-specific neurodegeneration and cognitive decline

A stratified approach based on amyloid status is essential for the optimal application of blood-based biomarkers in monitoring disease progression and evaluating therapeutic efficacy in future clinical trials and precision medicine.

Serum p-Tau217 and apolipoprotein E as potential biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease severity: a case-control study

Increased serum p-tau217 and decreased ApoE levels were significantly associated with greater AD severity, suggesting that both biomarkers may serve as complementary noninvasive indicators of disease severity in Alzheimer’s disease.
