1 BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive pathophysiological process characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau proteins, ultimately leading to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline.1, 2 In this context, neuroinflammation has been suggested as a significant contributor to AD progression.3, 4 Studies in mouse models of Aβ and tau suggest that microglial reactivity may accelerate Aβ plaque deposition and tau spreading, with immune-related alterations observed in...

1 BACKGROUND The core pathological hallmarks that define Alzheimer's disease (AD) are plaque-forming aggregates of amyloid beta (Aβ) and neurofibrillary tangles of hyper-phosphorylated tau (p-tau).

In 2014, when eBioMedicine launched its first issue, in vivo biomarkers to detect the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) were entirely restricted to position emission tomography (PET) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). There was certainly limited enthusiasm that a comparable determination about AD pathology or neurodegeneration could be made from an easily accessible biofluid such as blood.
