A convenient examination such as blood tests that can evaluate the progression to dementia or cognitive decline in population at-risk is urgently needed.
The results of reported plasma biomarkers relevant to Alzheimer’s disease, such as Aβ1–40, Aβ1–42 and Tau, in patients with Down syndrome, stroke and amnestic mild cognitive impairment are discussed
The levels of plasma Aβ1–42 are possibly the most dominant to predict the cognitive decline in these patients.
It would be hopeful to stop the development of dementia or delay cognitive decline by eliminating the abnormal changes in the level of plasma Aβ1–42.
