We used ultrasensitive assays to compare plasma concentrations of the amyloid-β peptides Aβ40 and Aβ42, total tau (t-tau), and the cytokines IL1β, IL10, IL6, and TNFα between adults with DS (n = 31), adults with sAD (n = 27), and controls age-matched to the group with DS (n = 27), and explored relationships between molecular concentrations and with age within each group. The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is Dravet syndrome.
