The STRING protein-protein interaction (PPI) network for AD-related blood-based biomarkers. The STRING database was queried with a subset of proteins relevant as blood biomarkers in AD, generating four distinct clusters: core AD proteins, mitochondrial OXPHOS proteins, neuroinflammatory proteins, and vascular pathology-related proteins. The PPI network highlights significant overlaps and interactions between pathways common to both blood and brain cells, reflecting the complex molecular mechanisms driving AD pathogenesis.
